NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCING YIELDS THE COMPLETE MITOCHONDRIAL GENOME OF RHODOPRASINA CALLANTHA (LEPIDOPTERA: SPHINGIDAE) AND ITS EVOLUTIONARY STATUS

Next-generation sequencing yields the complete mitochondrial genome of Rhodoprasina callantha (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) and its evolutionary status

In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of Rhodoprasina callantha Jordan, 1929.The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of R.callantha was 15,343 bp in size and encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA) and one control region (CR).The nucleotide composit

Role of Ca2+ and L-Phe in regulating functional cooperativity of disease-associated "toggle" calcium-sensing receptor mutations.

The Ca(2+)-sensing receptor (CaSR) regulates Ca(2+) homeostasis in the body by monitoring extracellular levels of Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]o) and amino acids.Mutations at the hinge region of the N-terminal Venus flytrap domain (VFTD) produce either receptor inactivation (L173P, P221Q) or activation (L173F, P221L) related marca corona laurel to hypercalcemic
