Firmiana is a small genus within the subfamily Sterculioideae of the Malvaceae. There are nine Firmiana species distributed in South and South-west Ch......
Molecular mechanisms of the non-structural protein 1 (NS1) in influenza A-induced pathological changes remain ambiguous. This study explored the patho......
Short Tandem repeats (STRs) often occur within coding regions and adaptive selection could play a vital role in shaping the landscape of coding STRs. ......
Understanding the molecular associations underlying pathogen resistance in invasive plant species is likely to provide useful insights into the effect......
Breast cancer is a devastating malignancy, among which the luminal A (LumA) breast cancer is the most common subtype. In the present study, we used a ......
Messenger RNA (mRNA) and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) targets interact via competitive microRNA (miRNA) binding. However, the roles of cancer-specific ......
Ulva prolifera O.F. Muller (Ulvophyceae, Chlorophyta) is well known as a typical green-tide forming macroalga which has caused the world's largest mac......
Vertebrate mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are valuable for studying phylogeny, evolutionary genetics and genomics. To date, however, compared to ......
Amphibians are experiencing worldwide declines due to increasing anthropogenetic disturbances. However, the genetic variability and hence adaptability......
Barley shrunken endosperm mutants have been extensively reported. However, knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanisms of these mutants remains l......
Crabs feed on a wide range of items and display diverse feeding strategies. The primary objective of this study was to investigate 10 digestive enzyme......
Despite the insights into retrogene evolution in multiple species provided by trans-traffic retrogenes (trans-retrogenes), cis-traffic retrogenes (cis......
Geological events have been shown to be the main factors affecting the distributions and population genetic structure of species. However, the impact ......
The MYB-CC gene family encode proteins that harbor a combination of characteristic myeloblastosis (MYB) and coiled-coil (CC) domain structures. Some M......
