Like bacteria and plants, fungi produce a remarkable diversity of small molecules with potent activities for human health known as natural products or secondary metabolites. One such example is mycophenolic acid (MPA), a powerful immunosupp...
Low Mutation Rate and Atypical Mutation Spectrum in Prasinoderma coloniale: Insights From an Early Diverging Green Lineage [0.03%]
早期分化绿藻系揭示的Prasinoderma coloniale低突变率和非典型突变谱
Lisa Mettrop,Anna Lipzen,Celine Vandecasteele et al.

Genome size is an important correlate of many biological features including body size, metabolic rate, and developmental rate, and can vary due to a variety of mechanisms, including incorporation of repetitive elements, duplication events, ...
Pervasive conservation of intron number and other genetic elements revealed by a chromosome-level genome assembly of the hyper-polymorphic nematode Caenorhabditis brenneri [0.03%]
超多态线虫布氏爪虫中大量保守的内含子和其他基因组元件由染色体水平基因组装揭示出来
Anastasia A Teterina,John H Willis,Charles F Baer et al.
Anastasia A Teterina et al.
With within-species genetic diversity estimates that span the gamut of that seen across the entirety of animals, the Caenorhabditis genus of nematodes holds unique potential to provide insights into how population size and reproductive stra...
An extensive survey of vertebrate-specific, non-visual opsins identifies a novel subfamily, Q113-Bistable (QB) opsin [0.03%]
对脊椎动物特异性非视觉视黑蛋白的广泛调查鉴定了一种新型亚家族，Q113-双稳定(QB) 视黑蛋白
Fuki Gyoja,Keita Sato,Takahiro Yamashita et al.
Fuki Gyoja et al.
A group of non-visual opsins specific to vertebrates is essential to understand evolution of lateral eyes, one of the most prominent innovations in this lineage. Nevertheless, our knowledge of their evolutionary history remains limited. To ...
The Breeding Sex Ratio Interacts with Demographic History to Shape Comparative Patterns of Variation on the X Chromosome and the Autosomes [0.03%]
繁殖的性别比例与人口历史相互作用以决定X染色体和常染色体上变异的比较规律
William J Spurley,Bret A Payseur
William J Spurley
In many populations, unequal numbers of females and males reproduce each generation. This imbalance in the breeding sex ratio (BSR) shapes patterns of genetic variation on the sex chromosomes and the autosomes in distinct ways. Despite reco...
