Periodicity and sequence degeneration in eggcase precursors (vitelline proteins) from Fasciola hepatica.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies of two 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (dopa) containing eggcase precursor proteins (vitelline proteins vpB1 and 2) from the trematode Fasciola hepatica recently concluded that although oligopeptide motifs occurred in the amino acid sequence, the overall structure (in contrast to dopa proteins

Nerve degeneration and regeneration in the cephalopod mollusc Octopus vulgaris: the case of the pallial nerve.

Only registered users can translate articles

Regeneration is a process that restores structure and function of tissues damaged by injury or disease. In mammals complete regeneration is often unsuccessful, while most of the low phyla animals can re-grow many parts of their body after amputation. Cephalopod molluscs, and in particular Octopus

[Responses of soil fauna to environment degeneration in the process of wind erosion desertification of Hulunbeir steppe].

Only registered users can translate articles

To reveal the relationships between soil fauna and soil environmental factors in the process of steppe desertification, field survey combined with laboratory analysis was made to study the community structure, population density and biodiversity of soil fauna, and their relationships with the

Survey of methanotrophic diversity in various ecosystems by degenerate methane monooxygenase gene primers.

Only registered users can translate articles

Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas contributing to about 20% of global warming. Its mitigation is conducted by methane oxidizing bacteria that act as a biofilter using methane as their energy and carbon source. Since their first discovery in 1906, methanotrophs have been studied

Deterioration-Associated Microbiome of Stone Monuments: Structure, Variation, and Assembly.

Only registered users can translate articles

Research on the microbial communities that colonize stone monuments may provide a new understanding of stone biodeterioration and microbe-induced carbonate precipitation. This work investigated the seasonal variation of microbial communities in 2016 and 2017, as well as its effects on stone

Alternative oxidase in animals: unique characteristics and taxonomic distribution.

Only registered users can translate articles

Alternative oxidase (AOX), a ubiquinol oxidase, introduces a branch point into the respiratory electron transport chain, bypassing complexes III and IV and resulting in cyanide-resistant respiration. Previously, AOX was thought to be limited to plants and some fungi and protists but recent work has

At least 1 in 20 16S rRNA sequence records currently held in public repositories is estimated to contain substantial anomalies.

Only registered users can translate articles

A new method for detecting chimeras and other anomalies within 16S rRNA sequence records is presented. Using this method, we screened 1,399 sequences from 19 phyla, as defined by the Ribosomal Database Project, release 9, update 22, and found 5.0% to harbor substantial errors. Of these, 64.3% were

Microbial Diversity Analysis of Sediment from Nakdong River Estuary in the Republic of Korea Using 16S rRNA Gene Amplicon Sequencing.

Only registered users can translate articles

Deterioration of sediment quality has been found in the Nakdong River Estuary after large-scale reclamations. Here, I report microbial diversity in sediments of Nakdong River Estuary in the Republic of Korea based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing by next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques. The

Microbial diversity in solar greenhouse soils in Round-Bohai Bay-Region, China: The influence of cultivation year and environmental condition.

Only registered users can translate articles

Round-Bohai Bay (RBB)-Region is an important crop production area in China, where vegetables are mainly produced in solar greenhouses. However, excessive fertilization and monoculture have caused serious deterioration of soil quality in this region. Soil microbial communities play pivotal roles in

The evolution of tyrosine-recombinase elements in Nematoda.

Only registered users can translate articles

Transposable elements can be categorised into DNA and RNA elements based on their mechanism of transposition. Tyrosine recombinase elements (YREs) are relatively rare and poorly understood, despite sharing characteristics with both DNA and RNA elements. Previously, the Nematoda have been reported to

Identification of new bone morphogenetic protein-related members in invertebrates.

Only registered users can translate articles

Although believed to be widely distributed among the animal kingdom, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily members have mainly been characterized in vertebrate and in invertebrate model organisms such as Drosophila and C. elegans. To characterize such new factors in invertebrates, a

Community-level analysis: genes encoding methanopterin-dependent enzymes.

Only registered users can translate articles

This chapter describes a set of novel tools for the environmental detection of C1 transfer functions linked to the cofactor methanopterin. These tools include degenerate environmental primers targeting four of the most conserved genes in the methanopterin-linked C1 transfer pathway in bacteria, fae,

pcaH, a molecular marker for estimating the diversity of the protocatechuate-degrading bacterial community in the soil environment.

Only registered users can translate articles

Microorganisms degrading phenolic compounds play an important role in soil carbon cycling as well as in pesticide degradation. The pcaH gene encoding a key ring-cleaving enzyme of the beta-ketoadipate pathway was selected as a functional marker. Using a degenerate primer pair, pcaH fragments were

Dystrophin gene expression and intracellular calcium changes in the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, in response to white spot symptom disease infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Dystrophin, an essential protein functional in the maintenance of muscle structural integrity is known to be responsible for muscle deterioration during white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection among prawn species. Previous studies have shown the upregulation of dystrophin protein in

Evolution of the P-type II ATPase gene family in the fungi and presence of structural genomic changes among isolates of Glomus intraradices.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The P-type II ATPase gene family encodes proteins with an important role in adaptation of the cell to variation in external K+, Ca2+ and Na2+ concentrations. The presence of P-type II gene subfamilies that are specific for certain kingdoms has been reported but was sometimes contradicted
