COMPLEX ORGANISMS MUST DEAL WITH COMPLEX THREATS: HOW DOES AMPHIBIAN CONSERVATION DEAL WITH BIPHASIC LIFE CYCLES?

Complex Organisms Must Deal with Complex Threats: How Does Amphibian Conservation Deal with Biphasic Life Cycles?

The unprecedented rate of global amphibian decline is attributed to The Anthropocene, with human actions triggering the Sixth Mass Extinction Event.Amphibians have suffered some of the most extreme declines, and their lack of response to conservation actions may reflect challenges faced by taxa that exhibit biphasic life histories.There is an urgen

Functional Analysis of In-frame Indel ARID1A Mutations Reveals New Regulatory Mechanisms of Its Tumor Suppressor Functions

AT-rich interactive domain 1A (ARID1A) has emerged as a new tumor suppressor in which frequent somatic mutations have been identified in several types of human cancers.Although most ARID1A somatic mutations are frame-shift or nonsense mutations that contribute to mRNA decay and loss of protein expression, 5% of ARID1A mutations are in-frame inserti
