Background
The canonical core promoter elements consist of the TATA box, initiator (Inr), downstream core promoter element (DPE), TFIIB recognition element (BRE) and the newly-discovered motif 10 element (MTE). The motifs for these core promoter elements are highly degenerate, which tends to lead to a high false discovery rate when attempting to detect them in promoter sequences. 相似文献52.

Background
The fish, Erythrinus erythrinus, shows an interpopulation diversity, with four karyomorphs differing by chromosomal number, chromosomal morphology and heteromorphic sex chromosomes. Karyomorph A has a diploid number of 2n = 54 and does not have differentiated sex chromosomes. Karyomorph D has 2n = 52 chromosomes in females and 2n = 51 in males, and it is most likely derived from karyomorph A by the differentiation of a multiple X1X2Y sex chromosome system. In this study, we analyzed karyomorphs A and D by means of cytogenetic approaches to evaluate their evolutionary relationship. 相似文献54.

Introduction
To investigate whether baseline levels of anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) or IgM rheumatoid factor (IgM-RF) and changes in the year thereafter are associated with disease activity, functional and radiographic outcome in early arthritis patients, and provide additional information over baseline autoantibody status. 相似文献55.

Little is known about past vegetation dynamics in Eastern Tropical South America (ETSA). Here we describe patterns of chloroplast (cp) DNA variation in Plathymenia reticulata, a widespread tree in the ETSA Atlantic Forest and Cerrado biomes, but not found in the xeromorphic Caatinga. Forty one populations, comprising 220 individuals, were analysed by sequencing the trnS‐trnG and trnL‐trnL‐trnF cpDNA regions. Combined, they resulted in 18 geographically structured haplotypes. The central region of the sampling area, comprising Minas Gerais and Goiás Brazilian states, is a centre of genetic diversity and probably the most longstanding area of the distribution range of the species. In contrast, populations from northeastern Brazil and the southern Cerrados showed very low diversity levels, almost exclusively with common haplotypes which are also found in the central region. Coupled with a long‐branched star‐like network, these patterns suggest a recent range expansion of P. reticulata to those regions from central region sources. The recent origin of the species (in the early Pleistocene) or the extinction of some populations due to drier and cooler climate during the last glacial maximum could have been responsible for that phylogeographic pattern. The populations from northeastern Brazil originated from two colonization routes, one eastern (Atlantic) and one western (inland). Due to its high diversity and complex landscape, the central region, especially central‐north Minas Gerais (between 15°–18° S and 42°–46° W), should be given the highest priority for conservation. 相似文献

Astringency of aqueous solutions of phenolic compounds (grape seed tannins,
tannic acid, catechin and gallic acid) increased upon addition of citric
acid, whereas the astringency of alum was reduced. Astringency of alum was
decreased equivalently by addition of equi-sour levels of lactic acid,
citric acid or hydrochloric acid. The difference between alum and the
phenolic compounds is speculated to result from chemical modifications
affecting binding of the astringents with oral proteins rather than
cognitive differences. Chelation of the aluminum ion in alum by acids
reduces its availability for interacting with salivary proteins or
epithelial proteins. In contrast, the increased astringency produced upon
acidification of phenolic compounds is speculated to result from the pH
driven increase in the affinity of the phenols for binding with proteins.
These results suggest that alum cannot be used interchangeably with
phenolic astringents in psychophysical studies.

This report describes a lysozyme expressed at high levels in the stomach of
the hoatzin, the only known foregut-fermenting bird. Evolutionary
comparison places it among the calcium-binding lysozymes rather than among
the conventional types. Conventional lysozymes were recruited as digestive
enzymes twice in the evolution of mammalian foregut fermenters, and these
independently recruited lysozymes share convergent structural changes
attributed to selective pressures in the stomach. Biochemical convergence
and parallel amino acid replacements are observed in the hoatzin stomach
lysozyme even though it has a different genetic origin from the mammalian
examples and has undergone more than 300 million years of independent
evolution.

We report observations on the dynamics of bacterial communities in response to methane stimulus in laboratory microcosm incubations prepared with lake sediment samples. We first measured taxonomic compositions of long-term enrichment cultures and determined that, although dominated by Methylococcaceae types, these cultures also contained accompanying types belonging to a limited number of bacterial taxa, methylotrophs and non-methylotrophs. We then followed the short-term community dynamics, in two oxygen tension regimens (150 μM and 15 μM), observing rapid loss of species diversity. In all microcosms, a single type of Methylobacter represented the major methane-oxidizing partner. The accompanying members of the communities revealed different trajectories in response to different oxygen tensions, with Methylotenera species being the early responders to methane stimulus under both conditions. The communities in both conditions were convergent in terms of their assemblage, suggesting selection for specific taxa. Our results support prior observations from metagenomics on distribution of carbon from methane among diverse bacterial populations and further suggest that communities are likely responsible for methane cycling, rather than a single type of microbe. 相似文献
