Abstract: Chloroplasts are unique organelles that not only provide sites for photosynthesis and many metabolic processes, but also are sensitive to various environmental stresses. Chloroplast proteins are encoded by genes from both nuclear and chloroplast genomes. During chloroplast development and responses ...
Abstract: Subcutaneous fat deposition has many important roles in dairy cattle, including immunological defense and mechanical protection. The main objectives of this study are to identify key candidate genes regulating subcutaneous fat deposition in high-producing dairy cows by integrating genomic and transc...
Abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of myocyte development and traits, yet insight into the genetic basis of variation in miRNA expression is still limited. Here, we present a systematic analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) for miRNA profiling in longissimus muscle of pigs from an...
Abstract: Citrus sinensis is the most cultivated and economically valuable Citrus species in the world, whose genome has been assembled by three generation sequencings. However, chromosome recognition remains a problem due to the small size of chromosomes, and difficulty in differentiating between pseudo and ...
Abstract: Gliomas are the most prevalent and aggressive malignancies of the nervous system. Previous bioinformatic studies have revealed the crucial role of the secretory pathway kinase FAM20C in the prediction of glioma invasion and malignancy. However, little is known about the pathogenesis of FAM20C in the...
Abstract: Genetic variation is a key factor influencing cytokine production capacity, but which genetic loci regulate cytokine production before and after vaccination, particularly in African population is unknown. Here, we aimed to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) controlling cytokine response...
