The Holo-Transcriptome of the Zoantharian Protopalythoa variabilis (Cnidaria: Anthozoa): A Plentiful Source of Enzymes for Potential Application in Green Chemistry, Industrial and Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

Marine invertebrates, such as sponges, tunicates and cnidarians (zoantharians and scleractinian corals), form functional assemblages, known as holobionts, with numerous microbes. This type of species-specific symbiotic association can be a ...

Investigating Genetic and Environmental Factors in Testicular Cancer’s Development: A Review Study

Testicular cancer (TC) is among the specific clinical problems of our time. Current therapy is highly effective, confirming 5-year disease-free survival in approximately 95% of ill people. TC is a prevalent type of cancer diagnosed in males...

ABCD: advanced blockchain DSR algorithm for MANET to mitigate the different security threats

Abstract Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) facilitate data communication across multiple nodes and hop stations, characterized by their dynamic topology. This inherent flexibility, however, makes MANETs vulnerable to various security threats,...

Erratum to: Search for resonant and nonresonant production of pairs of dijet resonances in proton-proton collisions at s $$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV

On the Variability of Functional Connectivity and Network Measures in Source-Reconstructed EEG Time-Series

The idea of estimating the statistical interdependence among (interacting) brain regions has motivated numerous researchers to investigate how the resulting connectivity patterns and networks may organize themselves under any conceivable sc...

Impact of Higher Harmonics of Gravitational Radiation on the Population Inference of Binary Black Holes

Templates modeling just the dominant mode of gravitational radiation are generally sufficient for the unbiased parameter inference of near-equal-mass compact binary mergers. However, neglecting the subdominant modes can bias the inference i...
