Abstract Background It is widely assumed that the invasion of a transposable element (TE) in mammals and invertebrates is stopped when a copy of the TE jumps into a piRNA cluster (i.e., the trap model).However, recent works, which for example showed that deletion of three major piRNA clusters has no effect on TE activity, cast doubt on the trap mod
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is an enzyme with key roles in carbon and nitrogen metabolisms.The mechanisms that control enzyme stability and turnover are not well known.This paper investigates the degradation of PEPC via selective autophagy, including the role of the monoubiquitination of the enzyme in this process.In Arabidopsis, the gen
This paper designed and optimized a bidirectional three-port valve plate structure for solving the matching problem of flow rate and pressure in the aerospace pump-controlled differential hydraulic cylinder.This design aims to make the valve plate work well under the bidirectional high-speed condition.The model Mattress Covers and Protectors was se
