Sensitive detection of proteasomal activation using the Deg-On mammalian synthetic gene circuit.

abstract：:Although research on human-mediated exchanges of species has substantially intensified during the last centuries, we know surprisingly little about temporal dynamics of alien species accumulations across regions and taxa. Using a novel database of 45,813 first records of 16,926 established alien species, we show that ...
