The Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcription factor Aft1 is activated in iron-deficient cells to induce the expression of iron regulon genes, which coordinate the increase of iron uptake and remodel cellular metabolism to survive low iron conditions. In addition, Aft1 has been implicated in numerou...

Salicylic acid (SA) is one of the key signal molecules in regulating plant resistance to diverse pathogens. It is predominantly associated with resistance against biotrophic and hemibiotrophic pathogens, and triggering systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in Arabidopsis. However, whether and how SA di...

Sulfur mustard (SM) is a potent alkylating agent. We are developing medical countermeasures to reduce the injury caused by SM exposure. Screening in the mouse ear vesicant model has identified three effective compounds: dimercaprol (British anti-lewisite), indomethacin, and octyl homovanillamide (OH...

CREST

The accurate identification of structural variations using whole-genome DNA sequencing data generated by next-generation sequencing technology is extremely difficult. To address this challenge, we have developed CREST, an algorithm that uses sequencing reads with partial align...

Fundamental changes in the composition and distribution of lipids within the brain are believed to contribute to the cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The mechanisms by which these changes in lipid composition affect cellular function and ultimately cognition are not well...

Though highly efficient at fermenting hexose sugars, the ethanologenic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has limited ability to ferment five-carbon sugars. As a significant portion of sugars found in cellulosic biomasses is the five carbon sugar xylose, S. cerevisiae must be engineered to metabolize pe...
