Synthesis and Biological Activities of Some Metal Complexes of 2-Thiouracil and Its Derivatives: A Review

Compounds
The thionamide antithyroid agents were discovered largely through observations carried out by various researchers in the 1940s that found that sulfhydryl-containing substances were goitrogenic in animals. Prof. Edwin B.

Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...

Enhancing CRISPR‐Cas12a base editing in plants with LbCas12a variants and introns

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Intron optimization of LbCas12a‐RRV improves cytosine and adenine base editing efficiency in plants, supports multiplexed and double‐strand break‐free genome modification, and expands precise genome engineering tools for crop breeding and plant functional research. ABSTRACT Cytosine base editors (CBEs) and adenine base editors (ABEs) are powerful tools

Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

Optimized TadA‐derived base editors efficiently manipulate mRNA splicing by A‐to‐G and C‐to‐K editing in potato

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Two optimized TadA‐derived base editors efficiently generate diverse splicing variants by targeting specific splice sites in potato. ABSTRACT Pre‐messenger RNA (pre‐mRNA) splicing is a critical mechanism for post‐transcriptional regulation in plants. Through alternative splicing, plants produce diverse transcriptomes and proteomes that finely regulate ...

A cytochrome P450 gene, GmSUR2a, confers submergence tolerance and improves yield in soybean by modulating auxin homeostasis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The key cytochrome P450 gene GmSUR2a enables soybeans to withstand destructive submergence stress. By lowering the level of the plant hormone indole‐3‐acetic acid, this gene improves soybean survival and increases field yield. It offers an important tool for breeding stress‑resilient soybeans, securing food production against extreme weather conditions.

Evaluation of Torula Yeast (Candida utilis) Single Cell Proteins as a Partial Replacement for Soybean Meal in Broiler Diets: Effects on Productive Performance, Meat Quality Traits, and Plasma Metabolome

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent years the use of yeast in feedstuffs has gained momentum due to novel developments in single‐cell proteins (SCPs). SCPs are considered a sustainable protein source, as their production enable to convert low‐value substrates (including industrial/agricultural wastes) into feed, with a related reduced environmental impact.

Register Shifts in Uracil-Damaged DNA

Uracil is a highly mutagenic and common lesion of DNA, which is caused by misincorporation or spontaneous deaminating of cytosine. Uracil will spontaneously base flip, breaking its Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds and base stacking and leaving the helix stack.
