🐍 Dosud neznámou populaci kriticky ohrožené užovky stromové (Zamenis longissimus), navíc s mimořádně vysokou genetickou rozmanitostí, objevili v severních Čechách vědci z @IAPGavcr ve spolupráci s dalšími specialisty.

��� Užovky této izolované populace náležejí ke dvěma hlavním vývojovým liniím druhu, které se dnes jinde vyskytují zcela odděleně.

🌡️ Populace pravděpodobně uchovává genetickou paměť z klimaticky příznivého období a mohla by sehrát klíčovou roli v budoucím přežití a šíření druhu v souvislosti s probíhajícím oteplováním. ⬇️

Check out our latest paper! We found the tyrosine kinase receptor FGFR2 in primary cilia, and showed that this is important for properly regulated FGFR2 signaling. @Science_MEDMUNI @IAPGavcr

🌌🍄🗣️ Space, fungi, and European languages – nine researchers from the Czech Academy of Sciences were awarded for their contributions across diverse fields of study.

🌟 At a ceremony held on 25 October 2024, three of these scientists received the Praemium Academiae from CAS President Eva Zažímalová, while six were awarded the Lumina Quaeruntur grant.

New genetics research in @CommsBio could help reshape current approaches to endangered species conservation.

@Cornell, @UofOklahoma & @IAPGavcr collaborators say genetic mixing may be a key factor for species survival, enabling critical new adaptations.

It was great to collaborate on this paper, frogies are extraordinaly, have so many interesting structures, it is amazing to watch them during metamorphosis. 🐸Thanks for possibility to contribute to this story.

🔹Vědcům z @IAPGavcr se podařil zásadní objev v pochopení procesu vývoje zdravého embrya z oplozeného vajíčka.

🔹Zjistili, že pro zdárný vývoj myšího zárodku je ve stadiu dvoubuněčného embrya zásadní prodloužení jedné přípravné fáze buněčného cyklu. Popsali také protein, který regulaci délky buněčného cyklu řídí. Pokud ve vajíčku tento CHK1 protein chybí, nedojde ke zdárnému vývoji do blastocysty a embryo zanikne. Výsledky mohou přinést obrovský pokrok v léčbě neplodnosti.
