Fluoride-enriched groundwater is a serious threat for groundwater supply around the world. The medium-low temperature fluoride-enriched geothermal groundwater resource is widely distributed in the circum-Wugongshan area. And the fluoride concentration of all geothermal samples exceeds the WHO permissible limit of 1.

The normal stages of embryonic development for wild-type Xenopus laevis were established by Nieuwkoop and Faber in 1956, a milestone in the history of understanding embryonic development. However, this work lacked photographic images and staining for skeleton structures from the corresponding stages. Here, we provide high-quality images of embryonic morphology and skeleton development to facilitate studies on amphibian development.

Williams syndrome transcription factor (WSTF) is a transcription factor and tyrosine kinase. WSTF overexpression promotes migration and proliferation of various cancers, and Ser158 (WSTF) phosphorylation plays an important role in this process. However, the role of the other posttranslational modifications of WSTF is unknown.

A comprehensive pretreatment system was developed to simultaneously extract and purify 120 veterinary antibiotics, possessing various physicochemical properties in eight categories. This system was coupled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) for the detection of the antibiotics. The samples were dissolved and dispersed by a Na EDTA-Mcllvaine buffer, extracted with acetonitrile containing 1.

Overexpression of Jumonji domain-containing 6 (JMJD6) has been reported to be associated with more aggressive breast cancer characteristics. However, the precise role of JMJD6 in breast cancer development remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that JMJD6 has intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity and can utilize ATP and GTP as phosphate donors to phosphorylate Y39 of histone H2A.

Histone H2B monoubiquitination is a key histone modification that has significant effects on chromatin higher-order structure and gene transcription. Multiple biological processes have been suggested to be tightly related to the dynamics of H2B monoubiquitination. However, a comprehensive understanding of biological roles of H2B monoubiquitination is still poorly understood.
