Abstract Cattle domestication and the complex histories of East Asian cattle breeds warrant further investigation. Through analysing genomes 49 modern eight ancient samples, worldwide are consistently classified into five continental groups based on Y-chromosome haplotypes autosomal variants. We find that populations mainly composed three distinct ancestries, including an earlier taurine ancestry reached China at least ~3.9 kya, a later introduced Eurasian ancestry, novel Chinese indicine...

Inflammasomes are involved in gut homeostasis and inflammatory pathologies, but the role of NLRP3 inflammasome these processes is not well understood. Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) patients with mutations have autoinflammation skin, joints, eyes, intestine. Here we show that intestines CAPS model mice carrying an Nlrp3 R258W mutation maintain gut. Additionally, such strongly resistant to experimental colitis colorectal cancer; this mainly through a remodelled microbiota...

Constitutive activation of plant immunity is detrimental to growth and development. Here, we uncover the role a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in fine-tuning balance growth. We find that lncRNA termed salicylic acid biogenesis controller 1 (SABC1) suppresses promotes healthy plants. SABC1 recruits polycomb repressive complex 2 its neighboring gene NAC3, which encodes NAC transcription factor, decrease NAC3 via H3K27me3. activates isochorismate synthase (ICS1), key enzyme catalyzing (SA)...

Tibetans live on the highest plateau in world, their current population size is approximately 5 million, and most of them at an altitude exceeding 3,500 m. Therefore, Tibetan Plateau a remarkable area for cultural biological studies human history. However, chronological profile Plateau’s colonization remains unsolved question prehistory. To reconstruct prehistoric demographic history modern humans Plateau, we systematically sampled 6,109 individuals from 41 geographic populations across...

Tibetans are well adapted to the hypoxic environments at high altitude, yet molecular mechanism of this adaptation remains elusive. We reported comprehensive genetic and functional analyses EPAS1, a gene encoding hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF-2α) with strongest signal selection in previous genome-wide scans Tibetans. showed that Tibetan-enriched EPAS1 variants down-regulate expression human umbilical endothelial cells placentas. Heterozygous knockout mice display blunted physiological...

Abstract Broomcorn millet ( Panicum miliaceum L.) is an orphan crop with the potential to improve cereal production and quality, ensure food security. Here we present genetic variations, population structure diversity of a diverse worldwide collection 516 broomcorn genomes. Population analysis indicated that domesticated originated from its wild progenitor in China. We then constructed graph-based pangenome based on long-read de novo genome assemblies 32 representative accessions. Our...

Abstract Background Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) and their exosomes (exos) are involved in shaping the immune microenvironment, which is important for tumor invasion recurrence. However, studies involving GSC-derived exosomal circular RNAs (GDE-circRNAs) regulating microenvironment (TME) remain unknown. Here, we comprehensively evaluated significance of a novel immune-related GDE-circRNA glioma microenvironment. Methods GDE-circPRKD3 was screened out through high-throughput sequencing...

Increased interest in using zebrafish as a model organism has led to resurgence of fin regeneration studies. This allowed for the identification large number gene families, including signaling molecules and transcription factors, which are expressed during regeneration. However, cases where no specific inhibitor is available product interest, determination functional role these genes been difficult. Here we demonstrate that vivo electroporation morpholino oligonucleotides feasible approach...

Abstract The actin cytoskeleton is an important regulator of cell expansion and morphogenesis in plants. However, the molecular mechanisms linking to these processes remain largely unknown. Here, we report functional analysis rice (Oryza sativa) FH5 /BENT UPPERMOST INTERNODE1 (BUI1), which encodes a formin-type nucleation factor affects plant rice. bui1 mutant displayed pleiotropic phenotypes, including bent uppermost internode, dwarfism, wavy panicle rachis, enhanced gravitropic response....

Abstract Background Mosquitoes transmit many infectious diseases that affect human health. The fungus Beauveria bassiana is a biological pesticide pathogenic to mosquitoes but harmless the environment. Results We found microRNA (miRNA) can modulate antifungal immunity of Aedes aegypti by inhibiting its cognate serine protease. Fungal infection induce expression modular protease (ModSP), and ModSP knockdown were more sensitive B. infection. novel miRNA-novel-53 linked immune response was...

Abstract Background Survival to cold stress in insects living temperate environments requires the deployment of strategies that lead physiological changes involved freeze tolerance or avoidance. These may consist of, for instance, induction metabolic depression, accumulation cryoprotectants, production antifreeze proteins, however, little is known about way such mechanisms are regulated and signals their activation. Ascarosides signaling molecules usually regulate nematode behavior...

Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs), a family of crystalline materials with abundant porous structures offering nanochannels for molecular transport, have enormous potential in the applications separation, energy storage, and catalysis. However, 2D COFs remain limited by relatively large pore sizes (>1 nm) weak interlayer interactions between nanosheets, making it difficult to achieve efficient membranes meet selective sieving requirements water molecules (0.3 hydrated salt...

Most plant viruses depend on vector insects for transmission. Upon viral infection, virus-derived small interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs) can target both and host transcripts. Rice stripe virus (RSV) is a persistent-propagative transmitted by the brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus, Fallen) cause severe disease rice. To investigate how vsiRNAs regulate gene expressions in insect vector, we analyzed expression profiles of (sRNAs) mRNAs RSV-infected rice planthopper. We obtained 88,247 that...
