DNA and RNA oligomers are used in a myriad of diverse biological biochemical experiments. These oligonucleotides designed to have unique biophysical, chemical hybridization properties. We created an integrated set bioinformatics tools that predict the properties native chemically modified nucleic acids assist their design. Researchers can select PCR primers, probes antisense oligonucleotides, find most suitable sequences for interference, calculate stable secondary structures, evaluate...
Abstract Background Drought stress has great negative effects on the plant growth and development. The tolerance of plants to such abiotic is triggered by complicated multilayered signaling pathways restore cellular homeostasis promote survival. WRKY family one largest transcription factor families in higher plants, been well recognized for roles regulating biotic stress. However, little known about how genes regulate drought resistance cotton. Results In this work, we identified...
Abstract Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae ( M. ), is one of the most common and damaging diseases rice that limits yield quality. The mediator complex plays a vital role in promoting transcription bridging specific factors RNA polymerase II. Here, we show subunit OsMED16 essential for full induction diterpenoid phytoalexin biosynthesis genes resistance to ascomycetous fungus . Mutants Osmed16 reduced expression DP are markedly more susceptible , while transgenic plants overexpressing...
Fungal response to oxidative stress during infection on postharvest fruit is largely unknown. Here, we found that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment inhibited the growth of Fusarium proliferatum causing crown rot banana fruit, confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission (TEM) observation. H2O2 exposure increased endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) fumonisin B1 (FB1) production in F. proliferatum, possibly modulating FUM or ROS-related gene expression. Importantly,...
The non-heme iron ergothioneine synthase (EgtB) is a sulfoxide that catalyzes oxidative C-S bond formation in the synthesis of ergothioneine, which plays roles against stress cells. Despite extensive experimental and computational studies catalytic mechanisms EgtB, root causes for selective remain elusive. Using quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) calculations, we show herein coordination switch intermediate involved catalysis EgtB. This from S to O atom driven by S/π electrostatic...
Strain FIRDI 006T, isolated from silage cattle feed, was characterized by using phenotypic and molecular taxonomic methods. The strain a homofermentative lactic acid bacterium; the cells stained Gram-positive were catalase-negative, non-motile, facultatively anaerobic rods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that belongs phylogenetically to genus Lactobacillus can be placed within acidophilus-delbrueckii group. gasseri johnsonii most closely related species, with similarities of 99.53...
The taxonomic status of Primula ranunculoides and other members section Ranunuculoides is reappraised here based on data from morphological, reproductive molecular characters. Multivariate analysis morphological characters indicates that P. a coherent species can be distinguished its sectional congeners cicutariifolia merrilliana by the simple kidney-shaped outer leaves unique clonal ability which apices scape differentiate into bulblets at late phases flowering. Recognition specific level...
Hollow niobium oxide fluoride was successfully synthesised by a facile hydrothermal approach in the hydrofluoric acid/hydrogen peroxide solution without any template. By selecting hydrogen as oxygen source which could ceaselessly release gas, diboride be oxidised and corroded to form nanomaterials situ. The hollow structure may result from Kirkendall effect. Significantly, method provide direct route synthesise some novel using non-oxide ceramic raw materials. photodegratation experiments...
Abstract The assembly line biosynthesis of the powerful anticancer‐antiviral didemnin cyclic peptides is proposed to follow a prodrug release mechanism in Tristella bacteria. This strategy commences with formation N‐terminal scaffolds and culminates their cleavage during cellular export mature products. In this study, comprehensive exploration genetic biochemical aspects enzymes responsible for both acylated peptide provided. process involves N‐acyl‐polyglutamine moieties orchestrated by...
Primula jiugongshanensis J. W. Shao, a new species from Mt Jiugongshan in Hubei Province, China, is described and illustrated. This biennial glabrous herb with pinnately compound leaves, affiliated to P . sect. Ranunculoides C. M. Hu. It distinguished other of the section by outer simple leaves ovate, flowers distylous, corolla lobe apex conspicuously emarginate, lack bulblets. Molecular phylogenetic analysis nrDNA internal transcribed spacer sequences (ITS) was conducted results also...
Natural toxic contaminants have been recognized as threats to human health. Ustiloxins are the secondary metabolites of fungus generated from rice false smut disease, which harmful animal/human reproduction and growth. However, there rare researches on control reduction ustiloxins through physical, chemical biological ways. Herein, we demonstrated that photocatalysis semiconductor nanomaterials could be a potential way degrade or mitigate contamination ustiloxin A. A kind wormlike graphitic...
Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is the most common type of in clinical practice, and individuals with are more prone to psychological disorders than healthy individuals. This study aims explore incidence anxiety depression related influencing factors AIS. Methods: In brief, 680 AIS admitted Chun'an County First People's Hospital from January 2021 2023 were selected as research subjects, their data retrospectively analyzed. All patients evaluated Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)...
An effective Fire and Smoke Detection (FSD) analysis system is of paramount importance due to the destructive potential fire disasters. However, many existing FSD methods directly employ generic object detection techniques without considering transparency smoke, which leads imprecise localization reduces performance. To address this issue, a new Attentive Model (a-FSDM) proposed. This model not only retains robust feature extraction fusion capabilities conventional algorithms but also...
