Abstract We recently reported the first clinical case of bladder fermentation syndrome (BFS) or urinary auto-brewery syndrome, which caused the patient to fail abstinence monitoring.In BFS, ethanol is generated by Crabtree-positive fermenting yeast Candida glabrata in a patient with poorly controlled diabetes.One crucial characteristic of BFS is th
Coarsening dynamics can explain meiotic crossover patterning in both the presence and absence of the synaptonemal complex
The shuffling of genetic material facilitated by meiotic crossovers is a critical driver Air Vent Nut of genetic variation.Therefore, the number and positions of crossover events must be carefully controlled.In Arabidopsis, an obligate crossover and repression of nearby crossovers on each chromosome pair are abolished in mutants that lack the synap
High information capacity DNA-based data storage with augmented encoding characters using degenerate bases
Abstract DNA-based data storage has emerged as a promising method to satisfy the exponentially increasing demand for information storage.However, practical implementation of DNA-based data storage remains a challenge because of the high cost of data writing through DNA synthesis.Here, we propose the use of degenerate Diabetic bases as encoding char
Human papillomavirus and genome instability: from productive infection to cancer
Infection with high oncogenic risk human papillomavirus types is the etiological factor of cervical cancer and a major cause of other epithelial malignancies, including vulvar, vaginal, anal, penile and head and neck carcinomas.These agents affect epithelial homeostasis through the expression of specific proteins that deregulate important cellular
