The goal of this study was to identify the genes coding for β-N-acetylhexosaminidases in the Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly) Ceratitis capitata, one of the most destructive agricultural pests, belonging to the Tephritidae family, order Diptera. Two dimeric β-N-acetylhexosaminidases, HEXA and HEXB, have been recently identified on Drosophila sperm. These enzymes are involved in egg binding through...
Polycomb repression controls regulation of hundreds of genes involved in development, signalling or cancer and is mediated by essentially two classes of chromatin-associated protein complexes, the Polycomb repressive complexes 1 and 2 (PRC1 and PRC2). PRC2 trimethylates histone H3 at Lysine 27 and this H3K27me3 epigenetic mark serves as a docking site for the PRC1 protein complex. Drosophila core...
In this paper, we propose a new protein map which incorporates with various properties of amino acids. As a powerful tool for protein classification, this new protein map both considers phylogenetic factors arising from amino acid mutations and provides computational efficiency for the huge amount of data. The ten amino acid physico-chemical properties (the chemical composition of the side chain,...
The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome sequence plays an important role in the accurate determination of phylogenetic relationships among metazoans. Herein, we determined the complete mt genome sequence, structure and organization of Macrobrachium nipponense (M. nipponense) (GenBank ID: NC_015073.1) and compared it to that of Macrobrachium lanchesteri (M. lanchesteri) and Macrobrachium rosenbergii...
