Published in 2025 at "Pest Management Science"

DOI: 10.1002/ps.8922

Abstract: The widespread use of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry proteins in pest control has led to resistance in some lepidopteran pests. Vip3 proteins, lacking sequence homology with Cry toxins, offer a promising alternative due to distinct insecticidal… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-9424-3_22

Abstract: NOX (NADPH oxidases) are a family of NADPH-dependent transmembrane enzymes that synthesize superoxide and other reactive oxygen species. There are seven isoforms (NOX1-5 and DUOX1-2) which derive from a common ancestral NOX. NOX enzymes are… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Gene"

DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2020.145300

Abstract: This review focus on the current knowledge of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in molluscs. In this review, we provide an overview of long ncRNAs (lncRNA), microRNAs (miRNA) and piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNA), followed by evidence for the… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Current opinion in structural biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.sbi.2020.05.008

Abstract: RNA complexity is augmented by numerous post-transcriptional modifications, which influence RNA function by modulating its structure and interactome. One prominent modification is methylation at the ribose 2'-hydroxyl group. 2'-O-methylation has been found in all RNA… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Biomacromolecules"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.biomac.1c01513

Abstract: Spider silk is self-assembled from silk proteins or spidroins. C-terminal domains (CTDs) of various types of spidroins are relatively conserved in amino acid sequences and are suggested to adopt similar structures and perform similar functional… read more here.
