Life in a contaminant milieu: PPCP mixtures generate unpredictable outcomes across trophic levels and life stagest
(2019-12-05)
Nearly all aquatic ecosystems are affected by sublethal levels of anthropogenic chemical contamination, but other agents of large‐scale anthropogenic disruption of ecosystems have received more attention. Consequently, ...
Customer Reviews Analysis With Deep Neural Networks for E-Commerce Recommender Systems
(2019-08-26)
An essential prerequisite of an effective recommender system is providing helpful information
regarding users and items to generate high-quality recommendations. Written customer review is a rich
source of information ...
Construction of realistic hybrid computational fetal phantoms from radiological images in three gestational ages for radiation dosimetry applications
(2019-10-10)
Radiation exposure and associated radiation risks are major concerns for fetal development for
pregnant patients who undergo radiation therapy or diagnostic imaging procedures. In order to
accurately estimate the radiation ...
Circular Single-Stranded DNA Virus (Microviridae: Gokushovirinae: Jodiemicrovirus) Associated with the Pathobiome of the Flat-Back Mud Crab, Eurypanopeus depressus
(2019-11-21)
A single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) virus is presented from a metagenomic data set derived from Alphaproteobacteria-infected hepatopancreatic tissues of the crab Eurypanopeus depressus. The circular virus genome (4,768 bp) encodes ...
A Bayesian machine scientist to aid in the solution of challenging scientific problems
(2020-01-31)
Closed-form, interpretable mathematical models have been instrumental for advancing our understanding of the world; with the data revolution, we may now be in a position to uncover new such models for many systems from ...
Rapid development of Purkinje cell excitability, functional cerebellar circuit, and afferent sensory input to cerebellum in zebrafish
(2014-12-19)
The zebrafish has significant advantages for studying the morphological development of the brain. However, little is known about the functional development of the zebrafish brain. We used patch clamp electrophysiology in ...
Alternative splicing of UCP1 by non-cell-autonomous action of PEMT
(2019-11-08)
Phosphatidylethanolamine methyltransferase (PEMT) generates phosphatidylcholine (PC), the most abundant phospholipid in the mitochondria and an important acyl chain donor for cardiolipin (CL) biosynthesis. Mice lacking ...
Dose-Dependent Effects of GLD-2 and GLD-1 on Germline Differentiation and Dedifferentiation in the Absence of PUF-8
(2020-01-24)
PUMILIO/FBF (PUF) proteins have a conserved function in stem cell regulation.
Caenorhabditis elegans PUF-8 protein inhibits the translation of target mRNAs by
interacting with PUF binding element (PBE) in the 30 untranslated ...
Characterization of METTL16 as a cytoplasmic RNA binding protein
(2020-01-15)
mRNA modification by N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is involved in many post-transcriptional
regulation processes including mRNA stability, splicing and promotion of translation.
Accordingly, the recently identified mRNA ...
