Identification and functional characterization of AsWRKY9, a WRKY transcription factor modulating alliin biosynthesis in garlic (Allium sativum L.) by Jiaying Wu, Min Li, Wanni Wang, Yiren Su, Jie Li, Jiaxin Gong, Xianfeng Meng, Chenyuan Lin, Qiantong Zhang, Yanyan Yang, Chunyan Xu, Limei Zeng, Jihong Jiang, Xuqin Yang

“…Further verification by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and chromatin immunoprecipitation qPCR (ChIP-qPCR) confirmed that AsWRKY9 interacts by binding to the W-box site on the AsFMO1 promoter. Compared to the control, the alliin content in the transgenic callus overexpressing AsWRKY9 was significantly increased, thus confirming the activation of the alliin biosynthesis pathway and enhancing the accumulation of alliin in garlic. …”

Point-Based Grading System: Advantages and Disadvantages by N. N. Мaltseva, V. Е. Рenkov

“…These include: the risk of a biased judgment; fostering individualism when everyone is interested only in his/her personal growth; dominance of the written test over the oral answer; and the use of test tasks, which allows one to determine only the initial conceptual level of the subject without revealing the problematic, conceptual depth of knowledge, without identifying creative minds who can think outside the box. Then, through a mental experiment, various pedagogical situations have been assessed in which a formal use of a point-based grading system leads to biased results. …”

Modulation of DAPK1 expression by its alternative splice variant DAPK1-215 in cancer by QingShui Wang, ShuYun Weng, WenTing Zhong, YouYu Lin, Yan Yu, YiMin Huang, LiLin Ge, XiuLi Zhang, FangQin Xue, Yehuda G. Assaraf, Yao Lin

“…DAPK1-215 promoted migratory and invasive capabilities in liver and kidney cancer cells, but inhibited these processes in gastric cancer cells, without affecting cell proliferation. Mechanistically, DEAD-Box Helicase 3 X-Linked (DDX3X) stabilized both DAPK1-215 and DAPK1 mRNAs, suggesting that DAPK1-215 may act by competing for DDX3X binding to modulate DAPK1 mRNA stability. …”
