متن کاملUsing Nematostella vectensis to Study the Interactions between Genome, Epigenome, and Bacteria in a Changing Environment
The phenotype of an animal cannot be explained entirely by its genes. It is now clear that factors other than the genome contribute to the ecology and evolution of animals. Two fundamentally important factors are the associated microbiota and epigenetic regulations. Unlike the genes and regulatory regions of the genome, epigenetics and microbial composition can be rapidly modified, and may thus...
متن کاملAging: One Thing Leads to Another
Mitochondria deteriorate during the aging process, but the underlying mechanisms for the decline of this critical organelle are unknown. A new study indicates that in yeast an age-dependent reduction in vacuolar acidification leads to mitochondrial dysfunction through a surprising mechanism: loss of vacuolar neutral amino acid transport.
