The Aphelenchus avenae genome highlights evolutionary adaptation to desiccation

Xuehua Wan, Jennifer A. Saito, Shaobin Hou, Scott M. Geib et autres

Some organisms can withstand complete body water loss (losing up to 99% of body water) and stay in ametabolic state for decades until rehydration, which is known as anhydrobiosis. Few multicellular eukaryotes on their adult stage can withstand life without water. We …

The importance of conserved amino acids in heme-based globin-coupled diguanylate cyclases

Xuehua Wan, Jennifer A. Saito, James S. Newhouse, Shaobin Hou et autres

Globin-coupled diguanylate cyclases contain globin, middle, and diguanylate cyclase domains that sense O2 to synthesize c-di-GMP and regulate bacterial motility, biofilm formation, and virulence. However, relatively few studies have extensively examined the roles of individual residues and domains of globin-coupled diguanylate cyclases, …

Comparative genomics of two jute species and insight into fibre biogenesis

Md. Shahidul Islam, Jennifer A. Saito, Emdadul Mannan Emdad, Borhan Ahmed et autres

Abstract Jute (Corchorussp.) is one of the most important sources of natural fibre, covering ∼80% of global bast fibre production1. OnlyCorchorus olitoriusandCorchorus capsularisare commercially cultivated, though there are more than 100Corchorusspecies2in the Malvaceae family. Here we describe high-quality draft genomes of these …

Commodities in Economics: Loving or Hating Complexity

M. Shahid Alam

A review of economic thought since the sixteenth century reveals two streams of economic discourse, dirigisme and laissez-faire. Starting with the mercantilists, dirigiste approaches to economics embrace the real-world complexity of commodities that often differ greatly in attributes that are growth- and …

Terasakiispira papahanaumokuakeensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a gammaproteobacterium from Pearl and Hermes Atoll, Northwestern Hawaiian Islands

Vanessa K. Zepeda, Hans‐Jürgen Busse, Jan Golke, Jimmy H. W. Saw et autres

A Gram-negative, helical bacterium designated PH27AT was cultivated from an anchialine pool on Pearl and Hermes Atoll, Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. The obligately halophilic strain was motile by bipolar tufts of flagella and grew optimally at pH 7, and microaerobically or aerobically. Closest …

Open and Lys–His Hexacoordinated Closed Structures of a Globin with Swapped Proximal and Distal Sites

Aik-Hong Teh, Jennifer A. Saito, Nazalan Najimudin, M. Shahid Alam

Globins are haem-binding proteins with a conserved fold made up of α-helices and can possess diverse properties. A putative globin-coupled sensor from Methylacidiphilum infernorum, HGbRL, contains an N-terminal globin domain whose open and closed structures reveal an untypical dimeric architecture. Helices E …

Draft Genome Sequence of Pantoea anthophila Strain 11-2 from Hypersaline Lake Laysan, Hawaii

Xuehua Wan, Shaobin Hou, Nolwenn Phan, Jennifer S. Malone Moss et autres

Most Pantoea spp. have been isolated from plant sources or clinical samples. However, we cultivated Pantoea anthophila 11-2 from hypersaline water from the lake on Laysan, Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. Draft genome sequencing of 11-2 provides a molecular basis for studies in evolution …
