Microbial community assembly in streams draining proglacial floodplains

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Tyler Joe Kohler, Jade Brandani, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

As glaciers shrink, new terrain is exposed and drained by proglacial streams along both longitudinal and lateral chronosequences which are fed by various water sources (glacier melt, snowmelt, and groundwater). While benthic microbial biofilms often initia ...

Thermal resistance of ventilated air-spaces behind external claddings; definitions and challenges (ASHRAE 1759-RP)

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

The presence of an air-space within a building envelope is known to have a varying contribution to the overall thermal performance of the wall assembly due to the combined effect of convection and radiation in the air cavity. In particular, the thermal res ...

KRAB zinc finger protein-mediated control of transposon-embedded regulatory sequences from human germline to early embryos

Alexandra Iouranova

Transposable elements (TEs), also called jumping genes, are genetic elements capable of changing their position within the genome of their host. They make up large fractions of genomes, including 45% of human DNA content, according to current estimates. S ...

Delta-Notch signalling in segmentation

Andrew Charles Oates

Modular body organization is found widely across multicellular organisms, and some of them form repetitive modular structures via the process of segmentation. It's vastly interesting to understand how these regularly repeated structures are robustly genera ...

Cell Division by Longitudinal Scission in the Insect Endosymbiont

Bruno Lemaitre, Graham Knott, Catherine Maclachlan, Elodie Julie Virginie Ramond

Spiroplasma bacteria are highly motile bacteria with no cell wall and a helical morphology. This clade includes many vertically transmitted insect endosymbionts, including Spiroplasma poulsonii, a natural endosymbiont of Drosophila melanogaster. S. poulson ...

SIRT2-and NRF2-Targeting Thiazole-Containing Compound with Therapeutic Activity in Huntington's Disease Models

Heike Runne

There are currently no disease-modifying therapies for the neurodegenerative disorder Huntington's disease (HD). This study identified novel thiazole-containing inhibitors of the deacetylase sirtuin-2 (SIRT2) with neuroprotective activity in ex vivo brain ...

Turnover and accumulation of genetic diversity across large time-scale cycles of isolation and connection of populations

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Major climatic and geological events but also population history (secondary contacts) have generated cycles of population isolation and connection of long and short periods. Recent empirical and theoretical studies suggest that fast evolutionary processes ...

Reconciliation of classification systems defining molecular subtypes of colorectal cancer

Douglas Hanahan, Anguraj Sadanandam, Xin Wang

Recently we published two independent studies describing novel gene expression-based classifications of colorectal cancer (CRC). Notably, each study stratified CRC into a different number of subtypes: one reported 3 subtypes, whereas the second highlighted ...

A Unique Skeletal Microstructure of the Deep-Sea Micrabaciid Scleractinian Corals

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

Micrabaciids are solitary, exclusively azooxanthellate deep-sea corals belonging to one of the deepest-living (up to 5,000 m) scleractinian representatives. All modern micrabaciid taxa (genera: Letepsammia, Rhombopsammia, Stephanophyllia, Leptopenus) have ...

The Environmental Clade LKM11 and Rozella Form the Deepest Branching Clade of Fungi

Enrique Lara

Previous environmental surveys of eukaryotic diversity using the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene have revealed many clone sequences that branch near the base of Fungi. In this work, we demonstrate that many of these sequences, including those o ...
