Deletion of a Putative GPI-Anchored Protein-Encoding Gene Aog185 Impedes the Growth and Nematode-Trapping Efficiency of Arthrobotrys oligospora by Disrupting Transmembrane Transpor... by Hui Peng, Hengqian Lu, Xinyuan Dong, Xiao Liang, Kangliang Sheng, Jingmin Wang, Xiaowei Kong, Xiangdong Zha, Yongzhong Wang

“…Here, the effects of a putative GPI-anchored protein-encoding gene Aog185 on the growth and nematode-trapping efficiency of A. oligospora were investigated. Compared to the wild-type (WT) strain, the ΔAog185 mutant grew more slowly, exhibited a 20% decrease in conidiation, delayed conidial germination, generated fewer traps, attenuated nematode trapping efficiency, and was more sensitive to chemical stressors. …”

Antipredator behaviour in semi-feral horses: innate response and the influence of external factors by Antoine Bercy, Francisco Ceacero, Martina Komárková

“…Domestic horses are becoming integral to such ungulates’ biomass, but they may differ from truly wild species due to their domesticated origin. This raises concerns about whether feral horses retain adequate antipredator behaviours, especially in the presence of expanding, large predators like wolves. …”

Radial Basis Function Coupling with Metaheuristic Algorithms for Estimating the Compressive Strength and Slump of High-Performance Concrete by Amir Reza Taghavi Khangah, Erfan Khajavi, Hasti Azizi, Amir Reza Alizade Novin

“…The contribution in this paper proposes the following: the radial basis function (RBF) model will be enhanced by using two optimization algorithms, namely Horse Herd Optimization (HHO) and Wild Geese Algorithm (WGA). Accordingly, two hybrid models have been proposed, referred to as RBFH and RBWG. …”

Development and characterization of a reverse genetics system for the lineage II Chicava strain of Machupo virus in a guinea pig model. by Emily Mantlo, Junki Maruyama, John T Manning, Rachel A Reyna, Cheng Huang, Slobodan Paessler

“…<h4>Principal findings</h4>We demonstrated that the multiplication kinetics in Vero cells, virulence phenotype in guinea pigs, and neutralizing antibody titers are indistinguishable between rMACV-Chicava and the wild-type parental virus.<h4>Conclusion and significance</h4>We conclude that rMACV-Chicava provides a useful model system to investigate the emergence of MACV lineage II strains and the guinea pig model has utility for the development of candidate vaccines and therapeutic antibodies for BHF.…”

Antagonistic functions of CTL1 and SUH1 mediate cell wall assembly in Arabidopsis by Nguyen Thi Thuy, Hyun‐Jung Kim, Suk‐Whan Hong

“…The mutation in SUH1 restored almost all examined ctl1hot2‐1 defects to nearly wild‐type levels or at least partially. SUH1 encodes a Golgi‐located type II membrane protein with glycosyltransferase (GT) activity, and its mutations lead to a reduction in cellulose content and hypersensitivity to cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors, although to a lesser extent than ctl1hot2‐1 mutation. …”

Programmed Cell Death, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen and p53 Expression in Mouse Colon Mucosa during Diet-Induced Tumorigenesis by Mauro Risio, Ivana Sarotto, Francesco Paolo Rossini, Harold Newmark, Kan Yang, Martin Lipkin

“…A major finding was an irreversible, progressive, age‐related decline of PCD at the crypt base in both control and treated animals that occurred during the second half of the rodents  life span. p53 protein was not immunohistochemically detected, suggesting that neither overexpression of wild‐type nor mutated forms of the protein are involved in the above mentioned changes.…”
