Open AccessDefective chromatin architectures in embryonic stem cells derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer impair their differentiation potentials
Nuclear transfer embryonic stem cells (ntESCs) hold enormous promise for individual-specific regenerative medicine. However, the chromatin states of ntESCs remain poorly characterized. In this study, we employ...

Open AccessEVR: reconstruction of bacterial chromosome 3D structure models using error-vector resultant algorithm
More and more 3C/Hi-C experiments on prokaryotes have been published. However, most of the published modeling tools for chromosome 3D structures are targeting at eukaryotes. How to transform prokaryotic experi...

Open AccessGenomic analyses of primitive, wild and cultivated citrus provide insights into asexual reproduction
Qiang Xu and colleagues sequence four citrus species de novo, along with 100 accessions, including primitive, wild and cultivated citrus. Their genomic analyses associate the CitRWP gene with polyembryony and sug...

Are protein hubs faster folders? Exploration based on Escherichia coli proteome
Protein hubs in protein–protein interaction network are especially important due to their central roles in the entire network. Despite of their importance, the folding kinetics of hub proteins in comparison wi...

Open AccessA novel proposal of a simplified bacterial gene set and the neo-construction of a general minimized metabolic network
A minimal gene set (MGS) is critical for the assembly of a minimal artificial cell. We have developed a proposal of simplifying bacterial gene set to approximate a bacterial MGS by the following procedure. Fir...

Open AccessAbundance and Temperature Dependency of Protein-Protein Interaction Revealed by Interface Structure Analysis and Stability Evolution
Protein complexes are major forms of protein-protein interactions and implement essential biological functions. The subunit interface in a protein complex is related to its thermostability. Though the roles of...

Open AccessAmino Acid Flux from Metabolic Network Benefits Protein Translation: the Role of Resource Availability
Protein translation is a central step in gene expression and affected by many factors such as codon usage bias, mRNA folding energy and tRNA abundance. Despite intensive previous studies, how metabolic amino a...

Open AccessSpatial features for Escherichia coli genome organization
In bacterial genomes, the compactly encoded genes and operons are well organized, with genes in the same biological pathway or operons in the same regulon close to each other on the genome sequence. In additio...

Open AccessDistribution patterns of small-molecule ligands in the protein universe and implications for origin of life and drug discovery
Extant life depends greatly on the binding of small molecules (such as ligands) with macromolecules (such as proteins), and one ligand can bind multiple proteins. However, little is known about the global patt...
