Article Synopsis
  • Various genetic techniques help trace cell lineage during tissue development, with some focusing on spatial/temporal aspects and others linking gene expression to lineage.
  • The G-TRACE system allows for quick visualization of GAL4 expression patterns, enabling genome-wide expression-based lineage studies conducted by UCLA students and high school scholars.
  • Findings revealed new expression-based lineage patterns and were compiled into the G-TRACE Expression Database (GED), contributing to better student learning outcomes and retention in STEM fields.

Despite its importance in the nitrogen cycle, little is known about nitrite oxidation at high temperatures. To bridge this gap, enrichment cultures were inoculated with sediment slurries from a variety of geothermal springs. While nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) were successfully enriched from seven hot springs located in US Great Basin, south-western China, and Armenia at ≤ 57.
