NXF7 DEFICIENCY IMPAIRS SOCIAL EXPLORATION AND SPATIO-COGNITIVE ABILITIES AS WELL AS HIPPOCAMPAL SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY IN MICE

Nxf7 deficiency impairs social exploration and spatio-cognitive abilities as well as hippocampal synaptic plasticity in mice

Nuclear RNA export factors (NXF) are conserved in all metazoans and are deemed essential for shuttling RNA across the nuclear envelope and other post-transcriptional processes (such as mRNA metabolism, storage and stability).Disruption of human NXF5 has been implicated in intellectual and psychosocial disabilities.In the present report, we use rece

Construction of a high-density genetic linkage map and identification of flowering-related QTL in erect milkvetch (Astragalus adsurgens)

Erect milkvetch (Astragalus adsurgens) is a perennial legume forage crop with economic and ecological value in livestock grazing and soil-erosion control in arid and semiarid areas worldwide.Genomic information and molecular tools to support breeding and research in the species are limited.The objectives of this investigation were to map its genome
