Heterologous Expression of Thanatin Using Dual Transposon System in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Thanatin is a small cationic antimicrobial peptide with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, considered a promising candidate to combat the global antibiotic resistance crisis. Microbial biosynthesis represents an attractive strategy for sustainable production of antimicrobial...

MicroRNA expression profiling in fowl adenovirus serotype 4-infected Leghorn male hepatoma cells using small RNA deep sequencing

Fowl adenovirus serotype 4 ( FAdV-4 ) is the causative agent of hydropericardium-hepatitis syndrome ( HHS ), a disease that causes severe economic losses to the global poultry industry. MicroRNAs ( miRNAs ) are key regulators of host–pathogen interactions; yet, their temporal exp...
