Open AccessJMJD5 inhibits lung cancer progression by facilitating EGFR proteasomal degradation
Aberrant activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling is closely related to the development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, targeted EGFR therapeutics such as tyrosine kinase...

Open AccessBeta-galactosidase gene family genome-wide identification and expression analysis of members related to fruit softening in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
Texture quality is impotent for melon (Cucumis melo L.) fruit. β-galactosidase (β-Gal, EC 3.2.1.23) is an important cell wall glycosyl hydrolase involved in fruit softening, However, the β-Gal gene (BGALs) family...

Open AccessA MYBL2 complex for RRM2 transactivation and the synthetic effect of MYBL2 knockdown with WEE1 inhibition against colorectal cancer
Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) is a unique enzyme for the reduction of NDPs to dNDPs, the building blocks for DNA synthesis and thus essential for cell proliferation. Pan-cancer profiling studies showed that RR...

Open AccessDrought-induced ABA, H2O2 and JA positively regulate CmCAD genes and lignin synthesis in melon stems
Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) is an important enzyme functions at the last step in lignin monomer synthesis pathway. Our previous work found that drought induced the expressions of CmCAD genes and promoted...
