Alternative splicing isoform of ADAR1-like computational and functional analysis in Ephinephelus malabaricus Open
In mammals, numerous ADAR1 splicing isoforms exist, including the constitutively expressed ∼110 kDa protein (ADAR1-p110) and the interferon (IFN)-inducible ∼150 kDa protein (ADAR1-p150). Their diverse roles may be associated with the struc…

Using concentration-dependent carbon dots as an antibody-free specific fluorochrome for multi-species bacterial labelling and dead/live bacteria distinguishing Open
Our findings demonstrate a close correlation between the aggregation of carbon nanodots (CDs) in bacterial cells and various cellular properties, including the cellular wall/membrane structure, the protoplasts, and the dead/live state. The…

Mining Candidate Genes and Favorable Haplotypes for Flag Leaf Shape in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Based on a Genome-Wide Association Study Open
The shape of the rice flag leaf affects rice yield. Therefore, the detection of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and alleles related to rice flag leaf shape is of great significance for rice yield improvement. Therefore, in 2019 and 2020, we…

Dietary Administration of Novel Multistrain Probiotics from Healthy Grouper Intestines Promotes the Intestinal Immune Response against NNV Infection Open
Epinephelus lanceolatus (giant grouper) is a high-value cultured species in the Asia-Pacific region. However, nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is an infectious viral disease that affects over 120 species of marine cultured species and causes h…

Screening for the Proteins That Can Interact with Grouper Nervous Necrosis Virus Capsid Protein Open
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) can infect many species of fish and has an 80–100% mortality rate. NNV capsid protein (NNVCP) is the only structural protein of NNV, but there are few studies on the protein–protein interaction between NNVCP an…

Secretory Production of Functional Grouper Type I Interferon from Epinephelus septemfasciatus in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis Open
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) results in high mortality rates of infected marine fish worldwide. Interferons (IFNs) are cytokines in vertebrates that suppress viral replication and regulate immune responses. Heterologous overexpression of f…

Overexpression of Anti-müllerian Hormone Gene in vivo Affects Gonad Sex Differentiation in Undifferentiated Orange-Spotted Groupers (Epinephelus coioides) Open
Sex differentiation in teleost fishes occurs in response to sex determination signals, which induce the gonad to develop as either an ovary or testis. However, sex differentiation mechanisms in fishes are diverse, and information on gonad …
