    Bipartite anchoring of SCREAM enforces stomatal initiation by coupling MAP kinases to SPEECHLESS

    Cell fate in eukaryotes is controlled by mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) that translate external cues into cellular responses. In plants, two MAPKs—MPK3 and MPK6—regulate diverse processes of develop...

    Differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into Leydig-like cells with molecular compounds

    Leydig cells (LCs) play crucial roles in producing testosterone, which is critical in the regulation of male reproduction and development. Low levels of testosterone will lead to male hypogonadism. LC transpla...

    Relocation of genes generates non-conserved chromosomal segments in Fusarium graminearumthat show distinct and co-regulated gene expression patterns

    Genome comparisons between closely related species often show non-conserved regions across chromosomes. Some of them are located in specific regions of chromosomes and some are even confined to one or more ent...
