Published: January 2017

Six genera from tribe form a morphologically diverse group named macaws, which differ from other in the presence of bare facial area. Macaws are further distinguished by the bare face pattern, plumage colouration and body size. Six of the eight macaw species from genus can be easily segregated into three pairs according to their colouration. An exception is , which differs from others in their size and morphology. The lack of appropriate molecular markers precludes determination of its phylogenetic position. Therefore, the mitogenome of presented in this report will be indispensable to refine these phylogenetic relationships.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables detailed characterization of cell states but often lacks insights into tissue clonal structures. Here, we present a protocol to probe cell states and clonal information simultaneously by enriching mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants from 3'-barcoded full-length cDNA. We describe steps for input library preparation, mtDNA enrichment, PCR product cleanup, and paired-end sequencing.

Background: The persistently high mortality and morbidity rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain a global concern. Notably, the disruptions in mitochondrial cholesterol metabolism (MCM) play a pivotal role in the progression and development of HCC, underscoring the significance of this metabolic pathway in the disease's etiology. The purpose of this research was to investigate genes associated with MCM and develop a model for predicting the prognostic features of patients with HCC.

Background: Many cancer cells exhibit aberrant metabolic reprogramming through abnormal mitochondrial respiration. Protein tyrosine phosphatase mitochondrial 1 (PTPMT1) is a protein tyrosine phosphatase localized to the mitochondria and linked to mitochondrial respiration. However, the expression and role of PTPMT1 in regulating the biological characteristics of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) has not yet been explored.

Nesolagus netscheri, a Sumatran striped rabbit, is one of the rarest rabbits in the Leporidae family, and its genetic information is still limited. This study provides the first mitochondrial genome and molecular systematic characterization of the Sumatran striped rabbit, Nesolagus netscheri, Indonesia's rarest rabbit. It consists of a circular double-stranded DNA of 16,709 bp.

Constipation is correlated with diminished cognitive function, revealing a possible rectum-brain connection. In this counter-balanced crossover trial, 13 elite triathletes underwent a Stroop test to assess cognitive function and executive control. The Stroop test was conducted both with and without magnesium oxide intake, with a 1-week washout period between sessions.
