The Quest for Genes Involved in Adaptation to Climate Change in Ruminant Livestock

Stéphane Joost, Elia Vajana

Simple Summary: After domestication in specific regions, livestock followed human migrations and colonized the whole world. During this population expansion, human and natural selection, together with demographic events, molded the livestock genome leading ...

Characterization of the Mercapturic Acid Pathway, an Important Phase II Biotransformation Route, in a Zebrafish Embryo Cell Line

Kristin Schirmer, Alena Tierbach

In view of the steadily increasing number of chemical compounds used in various products and applications, high-throughput toxicity screening techniques can help meeting the needs of 21st century risk assessment. Zebrafish (Danio rerio), especially its ear ...

Role of glutathione S-transferases and the mercapturic acid pathway in the biotransformation potential of two zebrafish (Danio rerio) test systems: early life stages and PAC2 cells

Alena Tierbach

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) early life stages provide an important model for chemical risk assessment due to their genetic similarity to humans and the availability of well-established high-throughput techniques. Cells isolated from zebrafish conserve all thes ...

Modeling metabolic and signaling pathways in cancer cells

Maria Masid Barcon

Cancer is a leading cause of death in the world, and the mechanisms that underlie this disease are still not completely understood. As cancer develops and progresses, cells undergo a diversity of mutations that sustain their rapid proliferation and the eva ...

Modeling, predicting and mining metabolism at atom-level resolution

Jasmin Maria Hafner

Living organisms can catalyze many thousands of biochemical reactions that they use to convert energy and matter, which provides them with the essentials for life. The sum of these chemical reactions happening in an organism is called metabo-lism. Understa ...

Mechanistic insights into bacterial metabolic reprogramming from omics-integrated genome-scale models

Florence Mehl, Noushin Hadadi, Merten Morales, Anush Chiappino-Pepe, Vikash Kumar Pandey

Understanding the adaptive responses of individual bacterial strains is crucial for microbiome engineering approaches that introduce new functionalities into complex microbiomes, such as xenobiotic compound metabolism for soil bioremediation. Adaptation re ...

Population Genomics of Mycobacterium leprae Reveals a New Genotype in Madagascar and the Comoros

Stewart Cole, Philippe Busso, Pushpendra Singh, Stefanie Boy-Röttger, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Thyago Leal Calvo

Human settlement of Madagascar traces back to the beginning of the first millennium with the arrival of Austronesians from Southeast Asia, followed by migrations from Africa and the Middle East. Remains of these different cultural, genetic, and linguistic ...

Analysis of human metabolism by reducing the complexity of the genome-scale models using redHUMAN

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Maria Masid Barcon

Altered metabolism is associated with many human diseases. Human genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) were reconstructed within systems biology to study the biochemistry occurring in human cells. However, the complexity of these networks hinders a consiste ...

Parallel and Scalable Bioinformatics

Stuart Anthony Byma

The field of genomics is likely to become the largest producer of data as a consequence of the large-scale application of next-generation sequencing technology for biological research and personalized medical treatments. The raw sequence data produced by t ...

Comparison of chitin‐induced natural transformation in pandemic Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor strains

Melanie Blokesch, Sandrine Stutzmann

The human pathogen Vibrio cholerae serves as a model organism for many important processes ranging from pathogenesis to natural transformation, which has been extensively studied in this bacterium. Previous work has deciphered important regulatory circuits ...
