, belonging to Neobatrachia, is a new model organism to study developmental biology, adaptive mechanisms from aquatic to terrestrial life, environmental toxicology, and human disease. use of lungs soon after hatching makes it extremely valuable for the study of lung function and development mechanisms. However, our knowledge of genes and pathways associated with lung development in is very limited. In this study, we conducted transcriptome assembly for the lung of using the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform. We obtained approximately 9.0 GB clean data from the lung of the stage 28 tadpole with lung inflation (NCBI accession numbers: SRP107055). transcriptome assembly identified 209,358 transcripts and 93,813 unigenes. In addition, BLASTX against NR, NT, KO, SwissProt, PFAM, GO and KOG databases were used to annotate all the 93,813 unigenes. This study provides the transcriptome and functional annotation of genes in lung development, which will be useful for comparative transcriptome analyses and promote research into mechanism of lung development in anuran.

Background: During mammalian spermatogenesis, the cytoskeleton system plays a significant role in morphological changes. Male infertility such as non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) might be explained by studies of the cytoskeletal system during spermatogenesis.

Methods: The cytoskeleton, scaffold, and actin-binding genes were analyzed by microarray and bioinformatics (771 spermatogenic cellsgenes and 774 Sertoli cell genes).

In this study, we successfully integrated the full-length genome of the cyanophage PP into the non-host cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, facilitated by conjugation via Escherichia coli. To address the challenge posed by the toxic open reading frames (ORFs) of PP in E. coli, we first identified and characterized three toxic ORFs.
