Yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) is one of the most important freshwater aquaculture species in China. However, its small size and lower meat yield limit edible value. Myostatin (MSTN) a negative regulator mammalian muscle growth. But, function Mstn fish remains elusive. To explore roles mstn gene growth create strain yellow with high amount mass, we performed targeted disruption using engineered zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs). Employing zebrafish embryos as screening system to...

Channel catfish (Ictalurus spp.) is an economically important species in freshwater aquaculture around the world and occupies a prominent position industry of United States. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play roles regulation almost every biological process eukaryotes; however, there little information available concerning miRNAs channel catfish. In this study, small-RNA cDNA library was constructed from 10 tissues catfish, Solexa sequencing technology used to perform high-throughput library. A total...

Melanin is an important antioxidant in food and has been used medicine cosmetology. Chicken meat with high melanin content from black-boned chickens have considered a nutritious potential medicinal properties. The molecular mechanism of melanogenesis skeletal muscle remain poorly understood. This study investigated the biological gene-metabolite associations regulating pathways Wuliangshan two normal boned chicken breeds as control.We identified 25 differentially expressed genes 11...

Abstract Many lines of evidence indicate that red jungle fowl (RJF) is the primary ancestor domestic chickens. Although multiple versions RJF (galgal2-galgal5 and GRCg6a) commercial chickens (GRCg7b/w Huxu) genomes have been assembled since 2004, no high-quality indigenous chicken assembled, hampering understanding domestication evolution. To fill gap, we sequenced four with distinct morphological traits in southwest China, using a combination short, long Hi-C reads. We each genome (~1.0 Gb)...

Myostatin (Mstn), a member of the transforming growth factor β superfamily, plays an inhibiting role in mammalian muscle growth. Mammals like human, cattle, mouse, sheep, and dog carrying null alleles Mstn display double-muscle phenotype. is conserved fish; however, little known whether fish with mutated mstn similar phenotype to mammals because lack mutant alleles. Previously, we knocked out one duplicated copies myostatin gene (mstna) yellow catfish using zinc-finger nucleases. In this...

The pineapple (Ananas comosus) is cold sensitive. Most cultivars are injured during winter periods, especially in sub-tropical regions. There a lack of molecular information on the pineapple's response to stress. In this study, high-throughput transcriptome sequencing and gene expression analysis were performed plantlets cold-tolerant genotype cultivar 'Shenwan' before after treatment. A total 1,186 candidate responsive genes identified, their credibility was confirmed by RT-qPCR. Gene set...

Our skin and materials are constantly exposed to detrimental ultraviolet light (UV) rays from the sun. It is essential protect our health life of by intercepting this high-energy radiation with UV absorbers. Carbon dots (CDs) low toxicity cost have brought a choice for However, high-efficiency absorption CDs that can achieve in full region rarely been reported. Herein, we synthesized full-band carbon dot absorber expanding CD π-conjugation domain. In addition, encapsulating polyurethane (PU)...

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) oxidatively break down the glycosidic bonds of crystalline polysaccharides, significantly improving saccharification efficiency recalcitrant biomass, and have broad application prospects in industry. To meet needs industrial applications, enzyme engineering is needed to improve catalytic performance LPMOs such as activity stability. In this study, we engineered chitin-active CjLPMO10A from Cellvibrio japonicus through a rational disulfide design....

Long-term and excessive ultraviolet (UV) radiation will trigger various skin diseases, traditional organic inorganic sunscreens possess disadvantages such as biocompatibility being prone to aggregation. Carbon polymer dots (CPDs) are an excellent candidate for UV absorbers due their polyfunctional groups, superior stabilization, low cytotoxicity. In this study, we explored the conformational relationship of structure CPDs on full-band by synthesizing using amino acids with different...

Ultraviolet (UV) absorbents are widely used in coatings and polymers owing to their remarkable absorbance of UV irradiation. As a new type organic absorbent, carbon dots (CDs) have presented outstanding absorption properties. However, the use water-soluble reactants synthesis process most CDs makes them easy dissolve water, which is not conducive field thin films. In this paper, we report an effective hydrothermal method prepare three-component (Im-CDs) from sodium citrate, ethylenediamine,...
