Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are integral to infant health. Yet, their complex biosynthesis pathways in the mammary gland during lactation remain under characterized. To address this knowledge gap, we performed integrated analyses of single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets combined with select HMO concentration measures. We identify differential expression patterns known synthesis genes epithelial subsets and nominate several candidate that vary concentration. Additionally,...
Pollen tube growth is essential for plant reproduction. Their rapid extension using polarized tip provides an exciting system studying this specialized type of growth. Self-incompatibility (SI) a genetically controlled mechanism to prevent self-fertilization. Mechanistically, one the best-studied SI systems that Papaver rhoeas (poppy). This utilizes two S-determinants: stigma-expressed PrsS and pollen-expressed PrpS. Interaction cognate PrpS-PrsS triggers signalling network, causing arrest...
Self-incompatibility (SI) involves specific interactions during pollination to reject incompatible ('self') pollen, preventing inbreeding in angiosperms. A key event observed pollen undergoing the Papaver rhoeas SI response is formation of punctate F-actin foci. Pollen tube growth heavily energy-dependent, yet ATP levels tubes have not been directly measured SI. Here we used transgenic Arabidopsis lines expressing S-determinant investigate a possible link between levels, cytosolic pH...
