Objective: Cloning and bioinformatics analysis of P450 cDNA in Artemisia annua.
Method: A P450 cDNA gene was cloned from A. annua by RT-PCR. The bioinformatics analysis of the P450 gene was performed.
Result: The complete ORF of this P450 cDNA is 1 464 bp and encodes 488 aa. The sequence was reported to GenBank and coded as DQ667171. Bioinformatics analysis of the P450 cDNA showed it encoded an A-type P450 protein with 54. 992 kDa, it's isoelectric point was 8.83 and the possibility of export to mitochondria was 0.893 2.
Conclusion: The comparable analysis of the P450 with CYP71AV1 revealed that the two proteins probably performed the same function because of the similar character.

Background: The rising demand for environmentally friendly pest control highlights the importance of understanding the interaction between natural enemies and pesticides. Amblyseius swirskii, a predatory mite extensively used in biocontrol, plays a crucial role in managing pest populations in agricultural systems. Integrating this mite with selective pesticide use within integrated pest management (IPM) would significantly advance pest control and may reduce pesticide residues in the environment and agricultural produce.

SPT-07A, a D-borneol, is currently being developed in China for the treatment of ischemic stroke. We aimed to create a whole-body physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to predict the pharmacokinetics of SPT-07A in rats, dogs, and humans. The in vitro metabolism of SPT-07A was studied using hepatic, renal, and intestinal microsomes.

Background: Olaparib (OLA) and regorafenib (REG) are metabolized by the CYP3A4 isoenzyme of cytochrome P450. Both drugs are also substrates and inhibitors of the membrane transporters P-glycoprotein and BCRP. Therefore, the potential concomitant use of OLA and REG may result in clinically relevant drug-drug interactions.

The transition from traditional mulberry leaf feeding to artificial diet cultivation represents a major advancement in modern sericulture, yet the genetic mechanisms driving this adaptation remain largely unexplored. This study investigates the genomic basis of artificial diet adaptation in the silkworm strain Guican No.5 through whole-genome resequencing and transcriptome analysis.

In this study, we selected , one of the primary insect pests of alfalfa, as the experimental insect and infected it with . Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses were conducted to explore alterations in gene expression and metabolic processes in at 48, 96, and 144 h post infection with . The transcriptomic analysis unveiled that infection boosted immune responses in tubercula, affecting carbohydrate metabolism, cytochrome P450 activity, lysosome function, apoptosis regulation, phagosome formation, glutathione metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and pathogen response pathways.
