Rapid solid phase microextraction of DNA using mesoporous metal–organic framework coating for PCR-based identification of meat adulteration
A rapid, convenient, low-cost, and selective DNA isolation method was developed for identifying meat adulteration. A mesoporous metal organic framework (Meso-UIO-66)-coated solid phase microextraction system w...

Open AccessThe function of uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase in the lyophilization-stress response of Lactobacillus acidophilus
Uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase) plays an important role in glucose metabolism, catalyzing the reversible formation and decomposition of UDP-glucose (UDPG). In previous work, we found tha...

Heterologous expression and biological characteristics of UGPases from Lactobacillus acidophilus
Herein, two genes (LBA0625 and LBA1719) encoding UGPases (UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase) in Lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus) were successfully transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) to construct r...

Open AccessRETRACTED ARTICLE: Long noncoding RNA ANRIL is activated by hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and promotes osteosarcoma cell invasion and suppresses cell apoptosis upon hypoxia
Osteosarcoma is the most common malignancy of bone. Intratumoral hypoxia occurs in many solid tumors, where it is associated with the development of aggressive phenotype. ANRIL has been shown to be a long nonc...
