Tirbanibulin (KX2-391) analog KX2-361 inhibits botulinum neurotoxin serotype A mediated SNAP-25 cleavage in pre- and post-intoxication models in cells
Koc, Dilara; Ibis, Kubra; Besarat, Peri; BANOĞLU, ERDEN; Kiriş, Erkan (2024-09-01)
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT) inhibit neuroexocytosis, leading to the potentially lethal disease botulism. BoNT serotype A is responsible for most human botulism cases, and there are no approved therapeutics to treat alread...
Investigating food production-associated DNA methylation changes in paleogenomes: Lack of consistent signals beyond technical noise
Çokoğlu, Sevim Seda; Koptekin, Dilek; Fidan, Fatma Rabia; Somel, Mehmet (2024-07-01)
The Neolithic transition introduced major diet and lifestyle changes to human populations across continents. Beyond well-documented bioarcheological and genetic effects, whether these changes also had molecular-level epige...
The first complete genome of the extinct European wild ass (Equus hemionus hydruntinus)
Özkan, Mustafa; et. al. (2024-07-01)
We present palaeogenomes of three morphologically unidentified Anatolian equids dating to the first millennium BCE, sequenced to a coverage of 0.6–6.4×. Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes of the Anatolian individuals clustered w...
Ancient Sheep Genomes Reveal Four Millennia of North European Short-Tailed Sheep in the Baltic Sea Region

Sheep are among the earliest domesticated livestock species, with a wide variety of breeds present today. However, it remains unclear how far back this diversity goes, with formal documentation only dating back a few centu...
GATA transcription factor in common bean: A comprehensive genome-wide functional characterization, identification, and abiotic stress response evaluation
Abdulla, Mohamed Farah; Mostafa, Karam; Aydin, Abdullah; Kavas, Musa; Aksoy, Emre (2024-06-01)
The GATA transcription factors (TFs) have been extensively studied for its regulatory role in various biological processes in many plant species. The functional and molecular mechanism of GATA TFs in regulating tolerance t...
Barley preferentially activates strategy-II iron uptake mechanism under iron deficiency
Aksoy, Emre (2024-06-01)
Plants utilize two main strategies for iron (Fe) uptake from the rhizosphere. Strategy-I is based on the reduction of ferric (Fe3+) to ferrous (Fe2+) iron by ferric chelate reductase (FCR) and is mainly observed in dicots....
