You’ve heard of blue-blooded, but that pales (literally) in comparison to white-blooded icefishes 🐟, the only #vertebrates without #hemoglobin! 🩸 Shin et al., (with help from #SequenceServer!) reveal that #gene loss may be to blame. Congrats to the authors! 🎉

Thanks to new #research on gars & bowfins, the evolution of #vertebrate #immune surveillance just got more garbled🐟Turns out these #fish have their own PSMB8 types, completely unique among vertebrates! Fascinating! 🧬

Congrats to the authors! Glad #SequenceServer could help!

Open Sesame! 🪄 By now you know we love an open access #database! Well, SesamumGDB, the brand-new #genomic database for cultivated & wild #sesame #species, is here! 🌿

Plus, with #SequenceServer integration, you can #BLAST away to your heart’s content! 🧬

Check out the paper here: doi.org/10.1093/database/baae1

Happy BLASTing!

🌻Sunflowers, 🥬lettuces, & 🫖chamomile all belong to the diverse #Asteraceae family, which represents 7% of all flowering #plants! This makes #genomics #research in this group incredibly important!

Luckily, Liu et al., have launched AMIR, a comprehensive multi-omics #database for Asteraceae. AMIR covers 74 species, 132 genomes, & 4.4M annotated genes, with integrated #SequenceServer BLAST tools!

Check it out!

🚨 #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!

🌱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 here: doi.org/10.1111/tpj.16961
