Specifically, this repository contains the full PDB validation reports (.pdf), the molecular coordinates (.cif), and the cryo-EM maps (.mrc) for SARS-CoV-2 Nsp1-80S ribosome complexes with non-rotated (PDB: 9XEZ, EMDB: 66799) and rotated (PDB: 9XEK, EMDB: 66789) subunits. Annotation for the dataset can be found on Pardi_et_al_structure_file_info.xlsx.

title: Harnessing freshwater snails to enhance water quality and sustainability in integrated multi-trophic prawn farming systems, Bangladesh

description: Bangladesh’s climate is favourable for giant freshwater prawn (<i>Macrobrachium rosenbergii</i>) farming, but conventional practices contribute to high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, threatening aquaculture sustainability. Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) offers a promising approach to mitigate GHG by incorporating species that extract excess organic matter from farms. Molluscs, particularly snails, have been suggested as potential extractive species. This study aimed to identify suitable local snail species for IMTA in the southwestern Khulna district across three salinity zones (low, medium, moderately high) during the monsoon (July–October). Sampling covered three waterbody types: aquaculture, non-aquaculture and open waterbodies. Year-round perceptions-based data were obtained through focus group discussions (FGDs), while direct quadrat sampling provided monsoon-season field observations data, identifying nine and seven mollusc species, respectively. <i>Bellamya bengalensis</i> was most abundant in late monsoon within non-aquaculture waterbodies (39.56 ± 12.74 individuals/m²), whereas <i>Pila globosa</i> peaked in mid-monsoon (10.22 ± 3.41 individuals/m²). Snail abundance was highest in undisturbed, vegetated non-aquaculture waterbodies. Distribution patterns were influenced by salinity and water quality parameters. Both <i>B. bengalensis</i> and <i>P. globosa</i> show potential for IMTA for their availability and potential use in feed, with <i>B. bengalensis</i> particularly suited because of its filter-feeding behaviour, adaptability and rapid reproduction.

title: MassIVE MSV000100734 - Developmental Reprogramming Underlies Chemotherapy Resistance in Favorable-Histology Wilms Tumor
title: Children with favorable histology Wilms tumor (FHWT) who relapse or whose tumors show blastemal predominance post-chemotherapy often face poor outcomes. The purpose of this study is to identify mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in FHWT. We induce a patient-derived xenograft model (KT-47) to develop blastemal predominance after chemotherapy and become resistant to vincristine, actinomycin-D, and doxorubicin (VAD). Multi-omics analyses reveal chromatin and transcriptional changes, including increased H3K4me3 and decreased H3K27me3 at stem cell and nephrogenesis gene loci. LIN28B is the most upregulated resistance-associated gene, linked to MYCN copy gain/upregulation and chromatin remodeling. ABCB1 expression correlates with inter-chromosomal enhancer interactions and functions as the mediator of chemotherapy resistance in vitro. These findings are validated in additional Wilms tumor models. Overall, resistance is associated with de-differentiation to a stem-like state and is driven ABCB1 upregulation, suggesting that therapeutic strategies targeting chromatin regulation and drug efflux may be relevant in therapy-resistant Wilms tumor.

title: The Marsupial Database: A comprehensive dataset on the ecology and life history of American and Australasian marsupials

description: Marsupials are an important but typically neglected group of mammals that have been overlooked in many comparative analyses of vertebrate ecology and life-history evolution. In order to address this knowledge bias, we have developed The Marsupial Database. The Marsupial Database contains traits for a phylogenetically diverse set of 414 extant and recently extinct (last 200 years) species from all seven modern marsupial orders (Dasyuromorphia, Didelphimorphia, Diprotodontia, Microbiotheria, Notoryctemorphia, Paucituberculata, Peramelemorphia) native to 34 countries in the Americas and Australasia. The database comprises 11,054 records of 35 traits describing anatomical, physiological, phenological and reproductive characteristics, as well as information on species’ ecology and current conservation status. Data were collected from 41 sources, comprising published databases and other relevant sources of information. By providing a centralized repository of marsupial ecological and life history traits, The Marsupial Database facilitates analyses of ecological and evolutionary patterns within the group, and also encourages inclusion of marsupials in comparative studies of mammals, vertebrates and the entire animal kingdom.
