Earthworm occurrence dataset extracted from Russian-language literature.

Background: Earthworms are one of the most important components of temperate ecosystems and groups of soil animals globally, but data on their distribution around the world are still incomplete and uneven. Northern Eurasia is a region for which available data on earthworm distribution is extremely poor. At the same time, generations of Soviet and Russian researchers have performed extensive research and accumulated a large amount of data on the distribution of earthworms in this vast region.

[Methylation of Long Noncoding RNA Genes SNHG6, SNHG12, and TINCR in Ovarian Cancer].

Ovarian cancer (OC) develops asymptomatically and escapes diagnosis until advanced stages, the feature contributing to a higher mortality rate. New prospects of OC diagnosis and treatment have been opened in studies of the gene regulation mechanisms that involve long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and identification of the lncRNA genes that are inhibited via methylation of the promoter region. A set of 122 samples of primary OC tumors was examined by methylation specific real-time PCR to assess the methylation level of the lncRNA genes PLUT, SNHG1, SNHG6, SNHG12, and TINCR.

Features of Highly Homologous T-Cell Receptor Repertoire in the Immune Response to Mutations in Immunogenic Epitopes.

CD8+ T-cell immunity, mediated through interactions between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and the T-cell receptor (TCR), plays a pivotal role in conferring immune memory and protection against viral infections. The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants presents a significant challenge to the existing population immunity. While numerous SARS-CoV-2 mutations have been associated with immune evasion from CD8+ T cells, the molecular effects of most mutations on epitope-specific TCR recognition remain largely unexplored, particularly for epitope-specific repertoires characterized by common TCRs.

Microbial Metagenomes Across a Complete Phytoplankton Bloom Cycle: High-Resolution Sampling Every 4 Hours Over 22 Days.

In May and June of 2021, marine microbial samples were collected for DNA sequencing in East Sound, WA, USA every 4 hours for 22 days. This high temporal resolution sampling effort captured the last 3 days of a Rhizosolenia sp. bloom, the initiation and complete bloom cycle of Chaetoceros socialis (8 days), and the following bacterial bloom (2 days).
