The Ribosomal Protein RpL22 Interacts In Vitro with 5′-UTR Sequences Found in Some Drosophila melanogaster Transposons
Mobility of eukaryotic transposable elements (TEs) are finely regulated to avoid an excessive mutational load caused by their movement. The transposition of retrotransposons is usually regulated through the interaction of host- and TE-encoded proteins, with non-coding regions (LTR and 5′-UTR) of the transposon. Examples of new potent cis-acting sequences, identified…

Much like nanochannel-based, local electroporation of single cells, the presented micromotor was expected to increase reversible electroporation yield, relative to standard electroporation, as only a small portion of…
De-extinction Could Reverse Species Loss. But Should We Do It?
THE MOST BELOVED BIRD IN HISTORY may very well have been a 29-year-old pigeon by the name of Martha. It was the early 1900s, shortly before the United States entered the First World War, and Martha was at the height of her fame. Perched on her humble roost at the Cincinnati…
Genomic features of a carbapenem-resistant K. oxytoca strain
Introduction Antimicrobial resistance is a global issue associated with an increased and often unrestricted antibiotic use in clinical settings, which leads to the dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) in healthcare facilities (World Health Organization, 2017).1 CRE constitutes a large group of bacteria with different mechanisms for drug resistance. Among them,…

[lammps-users] Define different intramolecular and intermolecular forces – #2 by akohlmey – LAMMPS Mailing List Mirror
Groups are a dead end, since there is no way to restrict or differentiate pairwise interactions by groups. Thus I think the only way that you can currently realize such a model would be to have different atom types for each molecule and then use the hybrid pair style. So…
Micromotor-based localized electroporation and gene transfection of mammalian cells
Significance A metallodielectric Janus particle–based micromotor system for local electroporation and gene transfection of a single mammalian cell is studied. This hybrid micromotor is magnetically and electrically propelled with magnetic steering to approach and contact a targeted cell. The targeted cell is then locally electroporated at its contact point with…
Jennifer Doudna’s CRISPR startup Mammoth Biosciences goes unicorn
The gene-editing tool CRISPR is moving toward the market, promising better tests, disease cures — and maybe even a woolly mammoth. The big picture: CRISPR is already a historic scientific achievement, but we’re just now entering the moment when it will begin to impact patients and possibly the planet. Driving…
My symmetry-equivalent sites don’t have the same energy
Hello! Help, my symmetry-equivalent sites don’t have the same energy! __The problem:__ My system is insulating and antiferromagnetic Cr2O3 with a positive interstitial H in a hexagonal supercell. There are 6 equivalent* sites in a ‘doughnut’ around a large interstitial region. When I compute the total energy of these sites…
Scientists say they could bring back woolly mammoths, but maybe they shouldn’t
Artist’s impression of a woolly mammoth in a snow-covered environment. Leonello Calvetti/Stocktrek Imag / Getty Images/Stocktrek Images Using recovered DNA to “genetically resurrect” an extinct species — the central idea behind the Jurassic Park films — may be moving closer to reality with the creation this week of a new…

For medium sized aquariums it is much better placed as a midground plant only use as a background plant in smaller aquariums. Another nice aspect of . In their natural habitat, most…
High tumor mutation burden and DNA repair gene mutations
Introduction Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)‑fusion genes represent a small but important part of oncogenic driver mutations in NSCLC, accounting for approximately 3%‑7% of all cases worldwide.1,2 Small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the standard therapy for ALK-rearranged NSCLC. Crizotinib, a first-generation TKI, is the most widely used targeted drug…
Legacy genetics of Arachis cardenasii in the peanut crop shows the profound benefits of international seed exchange
Significance A great challenge for humanity is feeding its growing population while minimizing ecosystem damage and climate change. Here, we uncover the global benefits arising from the introduction of one wild species accession to peanut-breeding programs decades ago. This work emphasizes the importance of biodiversity to crop improvement: peanut cultivars…
Mammoth-elephant hybrids could be created within the decade. Should they be?
The park’s vision of bringing back ancient grasslands is “an exciting hypothesis,” says University of Maine palaeoecologist Jacquelyn Gill, based on the effects that today’s elephants have on their habitats. However, she cautions that researchers still don’t know the full details of how woolly mammoths’ ecosystems functioned, which complicates efforts…
A startup wants to bring mammoths back to the Arctic
It’s almost been a decade since Harvard geneticist George Church first talked about using synthetic biology to bring woolly mammoths back to life. Now, his idea to reverse history is pressing forward. Today, Church and software entrepreneur Ben Lamm announced the launch of their biotech startup, Colossal, with seed funding…
Strata Oncology Trial Data Support Robustness of NGS Assay for Challenging Samples
NEW YORK – Research from Strata Oncology on a large cohort of cancer patients has shown that the firm’s amplification-based sequencing assay can handle samples that don’t meet the usual requirements for comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP). The company also believes that assays like StrataNGS that only need little tumor tissue…
Cisco targets net-zero by 2040, Illumina by 2050
Tech giant Cisco has pledged to reach net-zero emissions for operations by 2025 and the supply chain by 2040, while healthcare research and solutions firm Illumina has set a 2050 target. Cisco’s new targets involve reaching net-zero for Scope 1 (direct)…
Bacterial endosymbionts protect beneficial soil fungus from nematode attack
A healthy soil nourishes plants and animals, purifies water and air, and promotes sustainable agriculture. Characteristic for highly complex and competitive soil ecosystems are the frequent and direct interactions between all soil-dwelling microorganisms, animals, and plants (1, 2), all of which need to be provided with minerals and carbon sources….
GALAXY Workflow for Bacterial Next-Generation Sequencing De Novo Assembly and Annotation
Whole-genome sequencing of prokaryotes is now readily available and affordable on next-generation sequencing platforms. However, the process of de novo assembly can be complicated and tedious for those without a background in computational biology, bioinformatics, or UNIX. Licenses for commercial bioinformatics software may be costly and limited in flexibility. GALAXY…
Ancestral polymorphisms shape the adaptive radiation of Metrosideros across the Hawaiian Islands
Significance Some of the most spectacular adaptive radiations of plants and animals occur on remote oceanic islands, yet such radiations are preceded by founding events that severely limit genetic variation. How genetically depauperate founder populations give rise to the spectacular phenotypic and ecological diversity characteristic of island adaptive radiations is…

Using these strains, it is possible to integrate plasmids that carry the complementary ΦC31 att site onto the chromosome (attP, in this figure). Because the mtDNA codes for key OXPHOS polypeptides, genetic alterations in the mtDNA will affect energy metabolism. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1969 Jun;98(3):1248-57 eCollection…

PROPER-Seq Uses NGS to ID Undiscovered Protein-Protein Interactions
NEW YORK – A new method for profiling protein-protein interactions (PPIs) using next-generation sequencing as a readout has the potential to reveal thousands of previously undiscovered combinations in human cells. The method, called PROPER-seq (protein-protein interaction sequencing), tags proteins with RNA barcodes that form chimeric sequences when brought into proximity with…
