Plant pathogenic Rhodococcus species are persistent pathogens able to
cause severe growth deformities on a large range of hosts. The most well studied
species, R. fascians is predicted by current models to synthesize a mixture of
cytokinins that...

BACKGROUND: Little is known about α-tocopherol’s bioavailability
as a constituent of food or its dependence on a subject’s age.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the α-tocopherol bioavailability from food,
we used collard greens grown in deuterated water (²H...

We investigated DNA methylomes of pediatric B-cell
acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALLs) using
whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and high-definition
microarrays, along with RNA expression
profiles. Epigenetic alteration of B-ALLs occurred in
two...
