Hydrogen is a fundamental electron donor in diverse microbial metabolisms and it considered the energetic currency exchanged within communities anaerobic environments. also major actor transition to alternative low-carbon energy sources, primarily due its dual role as source carrier production of water byproduct combustion. The geological storage hydrogen gas produced from sources stable terrestrial reservoirs, known Underground Storage (UHS), key prerequisite decouple utilization. UHS...
The deep subsurface is a dynamic and biologically active environment that harbors vast array of microbial communities, accounting for substantial fraction Earth’s biomass. Most the available information about ecosystems in continental regions derived from studies on sedimentary rock formations analysis groundwater fluids accessed through boreholes mines. Research life within crystalline bedrock has historically been more limited, primarily focusing rocks such as granites, schists,...
Abstract The krill species Euphausia superba plays a critical role in the food chain of Antarctic ecosystem. Significant changes climate conditions observed Peninsula region last decades have already altered distribution and its reproductive dynamics. A deeper understanding adaptation capabilities this is urgently needed. availability large body RNA-seq assays allowed us to extend current knowledge transcriptome. Our study covered entire developmental process providing information central...
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is the major current in Southern Ocean, isolating warm stratified subtropical waters from more homogeneous cold polar waters. ACC flows west to east around Antarctica and generates an overturning circulation by fostering deep-cold water upwelling formation of new masses, thus affecting Earth's heat balance global distribution carbon. characterized several mass boundaries or fronts, known as Subtropical Front (STF), Subantarctic (SAF), Polar (PF), South...
Non-coding RNAs represent the largest part of transcribed mammalian genomes and prevalently exert regulatory functions. Long non-coding (lncRNAs) microRNAs (miRNAs) can modulate activity each other. Skeletal muscle is most abundant tissue in mammals. It composed different cell types with myofibers that smallest complete contractile system. Considering lncRNAs miRNAs are more type-specific than coding RNAs, to understand their function it imperative evaluate expression action within single...
