Journal ArticleDOI
Lifespan extension and elevated hsp gene expression in Drosophila caused by histone deacetylase inhibitors.
TL;DR: RNA levels for hsp22 and hsp70 expression were analyzed throughout the lifespan and suggested a close correlation among histone acetylation, hsp gene expression and longevity in D. melanogaster.
Journal ArticleDOI
Restructuring of the dinucleotide-binding fold in an NADP(H) sensor protein
Xiaofeng Zheng,Xueyu Dai,Yanmei Zhao,Qiang Chen,Fei Lu,Deqiang Yao,Quan Yu,Xinping Liu,Chuanmao Zhang,Xiaocheng Gu,Ming Luo +10 more
TL;DR: The previously unobserved restructuring suggests that HSCARG may assume a resting state when the level of NADP(H) is normal within the cell, and could be a new regulatory mechanism that responds only to a significant change of NADH levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of Caenorhabditis elegans sperm transcriptome and proteome
TL;DR: A tight correlation between sperm transcriptome and sperm small RNAome is revealed, suggesting that the endogenous siRNAs strongly repress sperm genes, which leads to the idea that the inefficient RNAi screening of sperm genes might result from the competition between the endogenous RNAi pathway and the exogenous RNAi pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trichostatin A Extends the Lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster by Elevating hsp22 Expression
TL;DR: Investigation of the influence of histone acetylation modification on the expression of hsp22 gene and the lifespan in Drosophila melanogaster using histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor Trichostatin A (TSA) showed that TSA could extend the lifespan of Drosophile melanogasters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nematode sperm maturation triggered by protease involves sperm-secreted serine protease inhibitor (Serpin)

TL;DR: It is shown that As_SRP-1 has two major functions, one of which functions in cis to support major sperm protein (MSP)-based cytoskeletal assembly in the spermatid that releases it, thereby facilitating sperm motility acquisition and the other released from an activated sperm inhibits the activation of surrounding sperMatids.
