Understanding Miro GTPases: Implications in the Treatment of Neurodegenerative Disorders.
TL;DR: The molecular structure and known mitochondrial functions of the Miro GTPases in humans and other organisms are discussed, in the context of neurodegenerative disease, and the potential human Miros hold as novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of such disease are considered.
An improved method for efficient recovery of high quality DNA from date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L; Arecaceae).
M. I. S. Safeena,Y. Dissanayake,M.C.M. Zakeel,M.C.M. Zakeel,Lakshan Warnakula,Ruwini Cooray,D.A.R.K. Dayarathna +6 more
TL;DR: An improved DNA extraction protocol is developed by modifying the original CTAB method to produce extra pure DNA in large quantities and may have potential for DNA extraction from other palms that have similar leaf texture to date palm leaves.

TL;DR: The results differentiate the post-hatching ERα expression of the left gonads of male chickens increase with age but with a diminishing gradient that may support their reproductive functions in later stages of life.

TL;DR: Dominant marker HUR0424 showed to be a reliable marker system for the genetic sexing of domestic chickens over co-dominant markers and showed that 10µl of initial blood volume yields a significantly high DNA yield with high purity.
