Despite their key role, individual functions of the SLC superfamily members were not evaluated systematically. We determined the metabolic and transcriptional profiles upon SLC overexpression in knock ...

Solute carrier (SLC) transporters form a protein superfamily that enables transmembrane transport of diverse substrates including nutrients, ions and drugs. There are about 450 different SLCs, ...

Our data set consists of 449 SNPs distributed in the 57 CYP450 genes. FastSNP analysis predicted the functional impact of these genetic variants: 47.9% of the SNPs have no known function; 0.7% ...

[24–26] Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, no study has focused on the entire CYP450 superfamily, investigating the functional diversity of human populations and identifying the most ...

Dyeing fabrics red has often played an important, symbolic role in various cultures throughout time. Historically, this bold color has been achieved in a variety of ways, including using both plant ...

“The cochineal, which is South American; kermes, which is European; and lac (another member of the Coccoidea family), which is Southeast Asian. Of these, cochineal and lac can be farme ...

Many scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea), including species of great economic importance, are associated with plants of the genus Citrus in citrusproducing regions around the world. Revision and ...

Data supporting the first identification of MFSD5 (major facilitator superfamily domain containing 5) as a receptor/cofactor involved in Lp(a) (lipoprotein[a]) uptake and calcific aortic valve disease ...

ABSTRACT: The cochineal, Dactylopius opuntiae, has recently become the main pest that damages the prickly cactus, Opuntia ficus-indica, plants in Morocco. The control methods in which pesticides are ...
