Polygonum minus (syn.Persicaria minor) is a herbal plant that is well known for producing sesquiterpenes, which contribute to its flavour and fragrance.This study describes the cloning and functional characterisation of PmSTPS1 and PmSTPS2, two sesquiterpene synthase genes that were identified from P.minus transcriptome data mining.The full-length
Abstract Based on bidirectional similarity measure between patches of image, in this study, we investigate the similarity criterion of image for resizing image.First, our scheme implements image resizing by Seam Carving step by step.For each step, we remove five Mag Pouches seams, and then calculate the dissimilarity between the original image and
The functional role of murine TLR8 in the inflammatory response of the central nervous system (CNS) remains unclear.Murine TLR8 does not appear to respond to human TLR7/8 agonists, due to a five amino acid deletion in the ectodomain.However, recent studies have suggested that murine TLR8 may be stimulated by alternate ligands, which include vaccini
Experimental evidence is increasingly being used to reassess the quality and accuracy of genome annotation.Proteomics data used for this purpose, called proteogenomics, can alleviate many of the problematic areas of genome annotation, e.g.short protein validation and start site assignment.We performed a proteogenomic analysis of 46 genomes spanning
