Learning by building is one of the core ideas of synthetic biology research. Consequently, building synthetic chromosomes is the way to fully understand chromosome characteristics. The last years have seen exciting synthetic chromosome studies. We had previously introduced the synthetic secondary chromosome synVicII in . It is based on the replication mechanism of the secondary chromosome in . Here, we present a detailed analysis of its genetic characteristics and a selection approach to optimize replicon stability. We probe the origin diversity of secondary chromosomes from by construction of several new respective replicons. Finally, we present a synVicII version 2.0 with several innovations including its full compatibility with the popular modular cloning (MoClo) assembly system.

This study describes two siblings from consanguineous parents who exhibit intellectual disability, microcephaly, photosensitivity, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, numerous freckles, and other clinical features that suggest a potential disruption of the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. Whole exome sequencing (WES) identified a novel homozygous missense variant in the gene, which was predicted to be pathogenic. However, a subsequent peculiar audiometric finding prompted further investigation, revealing a homozygous deletion in the gene linked to neurosensorial hearing loss.

The trihelix transcription factor, which is a plant-specific family, play a critical role in plant growth and development and stress responses. Drought is the main limiting factor affecting yield of maize (). However, the identification and characterization of this gene family in maize and its biological functions in response to drought stress have not been reported.

Background/objectives: has recently received increased attention as a potential biological agent because of its broad-spectrum antagonistic capacity against harmful bacteria and fungi. This study aims to thoroughly analyze the genomic characteristics of BRI3, thereby providing theoretical groundwork for the agronomic utilization of this strain.
Methods: In this work, we evaluated the beneficial traits of the newly isolated strain BRI3 via in vitro experiments, whole-genome sequencing, functional annotation, and comparative genomic analysis.

partial tandem duplication (PTD) involves intragenic duplications and has been associated with poorer prognosis. In this study, we evaluated PTD in 1277 patients with hematological malignancies using optical genome mapping (OGM). PTD was detected in 35 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (7%), 5 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (2.

To understand the clinicopathological and molecular genetic characteristics of aggressive renal mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (MTSCC). The clinical features, histology, immunophenotype, molecular characteristics and prognosis of 4 cases of metastatic/recurrent renal MTSCC that were submitted to the Peking University Third Hospital (2 cases), Institute of Urology, Peking University (one case) and Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital (one case) from 2015 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Among the four patients, two were male and two were female.
