Parental stressor exposure simultaneously conveys both adaptive and maladaptive larval phenotypes through epigenetic inheritance in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) (open access)

Parental stressor exposure simultaneously conveys both adaptive and maladaptive larval phenotypes through epigenetic inheritance in the zebrafish (Danio rerio)

This article is a study using crude oil as an example of an environmental stressor in adult zebrafish. The offspring obtained were then assessed for transgenerational epigenetic transfer of oil-induced phenotypes. The authors conclude that epigenetic transgenerational inheritance can lead to an immediate and simultaneous inheritance of both beneficial and maladaptive traits in a large proportion of the F1 larvae. The adaptive responses may help fish populations survive when facing transient environmental stressors.

Ascorbate Peroxidase 1 Plays a Key Role in the Response of Arabidopsis thaliana to Stress Combination

Article conducting proteomic and metabolic analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana plants subjected to a combination of drought and heat stress. The authors identify 45 different proteins that specifically accumulated in Arabidopsis in response to the stress combination. The findings suggest that cytosolic APX1 plays a key role in the acclimation of plants to a combination of drought and heat stress.

Data on whole length myosin binding protein C stabilizes myosin S2 as measured by gravitational force spectroscopy

This article relates to the research article entitled "Whole length myosin binding protein C stabilized myosin subfragment-2 (s2) flexibility as measured by gravitational force spectroscopy" (Singh et al., 2018) [1]. The data exhibited the purified skeletal myosin binding protein (MyBPC) from rabbit back muscle was of slow skeletal type confirmed by chromatography and in unphosphorylated state based on its isoelectric point (pI) by chromatofocussing.
