Abstract: Nonparasitic lampreys are highly promiscuous: a single female can mate over several dozen times with multiple males. It remains unknown why females mate so frequently despite presumed costs from an elongated spawning period. This paper… read more here.

Abstract: A highly regio-specific and donor-promiscuous 3- O-glycosyltransferase, Sb3GT1 (UGT78B4), was discovered from Scutellaria baicalensis. Sb3GT1 could accept five sugar donors (UDP-Glc/-Gal/-GlcNAc/-Xyl/-Ara) to catalyze 3- O-glycosylation of 17 flavonols, and the conversion rates could be >98%.… read more here.
