    Description

    The dataset contains data pertaining to the examination of draft genomes of 388 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates obtained from intensive care unit patients at three geographically distributed hospitals. The purpose of the study was to determine genomic diversity associated with potential health care worker-associated transmission. Relevant statistics, including linked GenBank and...

    Description

    This study aimed to identify the insulin-like androgenic gland factor (IAG) in adult male Jonah crabs as it plays an essential role in sexual maturity. The study also aimed to examine if seasonal changes influence IAG expression in males. The study used the androgenic gland transcriptome to test if eyestalk neuropeptides regulate IAG levels via an endocrine axis between the two endocrine tissues as...

    Description

    Researchers present an optimized protocol for single nuclei RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) that is fast, low, cost, and time effective due to the elimination of cell sorting and ultra-centrifugation. Both human and mouse tissue biopsies were assessed. Human kidney graft biopsies were collected from five kidney transplant recipients. Mouse needle biopsies were collected from heart, liver, kidney, spleen,...
