ProtLoc-GRPO: Cell line-specific subcellular localization prediction using a graph-based model and reinforcement learning.

Subcellular localization prediction is crucial for understanding protein functions and cellular processes. Subcellular localization is dependent on tissue and cell lines derived from different cell types. Predicting cell line-specific subcellular localization using the information of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) offers deeper insights into dynamic cellular organization and molecular mechanisms.

Identification and Evaluation of Colour Change in Rosemary and Biluochun Tea Infusions.

Background: The colour of tea beverages during processing and storage significantly influences their visual quality. However, natural pink tea products are rare. This study investigated the mechanism behind the pink colouration in the mixed infusion of Biluochun (a green tea) and rosemary.

Genome-Wide Analysis and Expression Profiling of Lectin Receptor-like Kinase Genes in Watermelon ().

Watermelon is one of the most important edible plants worldwide. Owing to its special cultivation conditions, watermelon is exposed to many biological and abiotic stresses during its development. Lectin receptor-like kinases (LecRLKs) are plant-specific membrane proteins that play important roles in sensing and responding to environmental stimuli.

SWATH-MS-Based Proteomics Reveals the Regulatory Metabolism of Amaryllidaceae Alkaloids in Three Species.

Alkaloids are a class of nitrogen-containing alkaline organic compounds found in nature, with significant biological activity, and are also important active ingredients in Chinese herbal medicine. Amaryllidaceae plants are rich in alkaloids, among which galanthamine, lycorine, and lycoramine are representative. Since the difficulty and high cost of synthesizing alkaloids have been the major obstacles in industrial production, particularly the molecular mechanism underlying alkaloid biosynthesis is largely unknown.

Biological Control and Plant Growth Promotion by Volatile Organic Compounds of T-51.

spp. are widely used in plant disease control and growth promotion due to their high efficacy and multiple biocontrol mechanisms. T-51 is an effective biocontrol agent against gray mold disease by direct contact.

Comprehensive Transcriptome and Metabolic Profiling of Petal Color Development in .

() is an important ornamental bulbous plant, and its numerous varieties in different color forms are widely planted. Multiple color types of petals in provide us with possibilities to delineate the complicated metabolic networks underlying the biochemical traits behind color formation in this plant species, especially petal color. In this study, we sequenced and annotated a reference transcriptome of pink and white petals of and analyzed the metabolic role of anthocyanin biosynthesis in regulating color pigment metabolism.

Grafting-responsive miRNAs in cucumber and pumpkin seedlings identified by high-throughput sequencing at whole genome level.

Grafting is an important agricultural technique widely used for improving growth, yields and tolerance of crops to abiotic and biotic stresses. As one type of endogenous, non-coding small RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate development and responsiveness to biotic and abiotic stresses by negatively mediating expression of target genes at the post-transcriptional level. However, there have been few detailed studies to evaluate the role of miRNAs in mediation of grafting-induced physiological processes in plants.
