Using next-generation sequencing technology alone, we have successfully generated and assembled a draft sequence of the giant panda genome. The contigs (2.25 gigabases (Gb)) cover approximately 94% whole genome, remaining gaps (0.05 Gb) seem to contain carnivore-specific repeats tandem repeats. Comparisons with dog human showed that genome has lower divergence rate. assessment genes potentially underlying some its unique traits indicated bamboo diet might be more dependent on gut microbiome...

Pyruvate kinase M2 isoform (PKM2) catalyzes the last step of glycolysis and plays an important role in tumor cell proliferation. Recent studies have reported that PKM2 also regulates apoptosis. However, mechanisms underlying such a remain elusive. Here we show translocates to mitochondria under oxidative stress. In mitochondria, interacts with phosphorylates Bcl2 at threonine (T) 69. This phosphorylation prevents binding Cul3-based E3 ligase subsequent degradation Bcl2. A chaperone protein,...

Kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.) is a climacteric fruit with high sensitivity to ethylene, influenced by multiple ethylene-responsive structural genes and transcription factors. However, the roles of other post-transcriptional regulators (e.g. miRNAs) necessary for ripening remain elusive. High-throughput sequencing sRNAome, degradome transcriptome methods were used identify further contributors control in kiwifruit (A. deliciosa cv 'Hayward').
