Two white-rot fungi, Trametes versicolor and Gelatoporia subvermispora, were cultivated in different environments - agitation and static incubation modes and variations in the level of antioxidants - during the conversion of a lignin-related aromatic compound and cellobiose. Both incubation mode and...
Sustained caloric restriction (CR) extends lifespan in animal models but the mechanism and primary tissue target(s) have not been identified. Gene expression changes with aging and CR were examined in both heart and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (WAT) of F344 male rats using Affymetrix® RAE 230...
Understanding the human milk metabolome can help inform infant nutrition and health. Untargeted metabolomics was used to study breast milk from 31 healthy participants to assess the shared metabolites in milk from participants with various backgrounds and understand how different demographic, health...
Prostate cancer is initially responsive to androgen deprivation, but the effectiveness of androgen receptor (AR) inhibitors in recurrent disease is variable. Biopsy of bone metastases is challenging, hence sampling circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may reveal drug resistance mechanisms. We established ...
BSR cells were infected with the Cardiovirus B archetype, Theiler’s murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV), and mutants thereof, and subjected to ribosome profiling to analyse the viral translatome, frameshifting, and ribosome pausing events. Samples were harvested at 10 hpi by flash-freezing, withou...
The phosphorylation of eIF4E1 at serine 209 by MNK1 or MNK2 has been shown to initiate oncogenic mRNA translation, a process that favours cancer development and maintenance. Here, we interrogate the MNK-eIF4E axis in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and show a distinct distribution of MNK1 and ...
The genome of the marine Synechococcus sp. WH8102 displays a minimal regulatory network yet physiological and molecular responses of this organism are tuned to episodic limitation for nitrogen and phosphorus. Microarray analyses have demonstrated a key role for the two-component regulatory system, P...
