Bacteria-on-bacteria warfare in milk!
2024-10-22
Bacteria-on-bacteria warfare in milk might help treat Staph aureus & MRSA! Check out this BLASTfromthePast where researchers isolate bacteriocins — bacteria’s own bacteria killing weapon - from bovine milk & test their inhibitory power on S. aureus and MRSA. Always love to look back on the weird & wonderful research SequenceServer has helped facilitate!
The rap(h)id gliding abilities of raphid diatoms!
2024-10-10
Did you know? Raphid diatoms are one of the few eukaryotes that can glide! And they do it surprisingly… rap(h)idly! Congrats to Davutoglu et al. for their fascinating Nature paper on the molecular secrets behind this movement. Glad SequenceServer could help!
A genomic database for cactophilic flies!
2024-09-24
More exciting genomics research to highlight today, this time focusing on cactophilic flies that make their living in necrotic cactus tissue (yum)! Huge congrats to the authors & delighted to see SequenceServer integrated into their publicly accessible database. Always pleased to see more open data practices in science! If you’re interested, you can check out the paper and the database.
The secrete origins of Firefly bioluminescence!
2024-08-27
BLASTfromthePast: Revisiting a truly enlightening study on the origins of firefly bioluminescence. Did fireflies and click beetles share a glowing ancestor? Or did they evolve it separately? Such a fascinating paper! Great to reflect on the fantastic research that SequenceServer has helped facilitate!
Exploring pea plant adaptations to low-sulfur environments with the help of SequenceServer!
2024-08-20
🌱Peas are plant protein powerhouses (phew, that’s a lot of P’s!), but quality relies on sulfur availability. Bachelet et al., with the help of SequenceServer, explore how pea compensates for low-sulfur environments using sulfate transport systems. Huge congrats to the authors! Check out the paper!
