Article Synopsis
  • The SARS-CoV-2 virus is constantly mutating, and researchers used various methods to study these mutations and their clinical relevance.
  • They found 35 significant variants, including one deletion (Δ500-532) in the Nsp1 region, which occurs in over 20% of samples and is linked to more severe disease symptoms.
  • This specific mutation has been identified in 37 countries and results in lower immune responses, suggesting its potential role in diagnosing and developing treatments for COVID-19.

() encodes a histone demethylase, which can influence the androgen signaling as well as play an essential role in spermatogenesis. Recently a study has shown that the mRNA of is the key to the successful clone of the Macaque monkeys named as "Zhongzhong" and "Huahua," which greatly increased pregnancy rates of female monkey, suggesting that the gene may be strongly associated with reproduction. Therefore, the objective of this study was to explore possible single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the coding region of gene and analyze the associations with testis morphology traits of male pigs.
