DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2021.09.058
Abstract: The aptamer domain of the theophylline riboswitch was randomized to generate a library containing millions of different variants. Dual genetic selection utilizing the cat-upp fusion gene was performed for the library, which successfully led to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skaa278.011
Abstract: The use of pooled semen (PS), standard procedure at the commercial level of the swine industry, limits genetic progress, since the offspring parentage is unknown. Literature suggests that some boars have a greater number of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz053.053
Abstract: Anecdotal evidence suggests that weaning/stocker weights, ADG, and carcass weights have increased for Southeast cattle over the last 30 years. Simultaneously, morbidity and mortality have not improved, and according to some reports, have significantly increased.… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.47549
Abstract: Post-transcriptional regulation plays important roles to fine-tune gene expression in bacteria. In particular, regulation of type I toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems is achieved through sophisticated mechanisms involving toxin mRNA folding. Here, we set up a genetic… read more here.
