Avian eggshell biomineralization: an update on its structure, mineralogy and protein tool kit

Joël Gautron, Lilian Stapane, Nathalie Le Roy et al. · 12 Feb 2021

BACKGROUND: The avian eggshell is a natural protective envelope that relies on the phenomenon of biomineralization for its formation. The shell is made of calcium carbonate in the form of calcite, which contains hundreds of proteins that interact with the mineral phase controlling its formation and structural organization, and thus determine the mechanical properties of…

DNA supercoiling and transcription in bacteria: a two-way street

Charles J. Dorman · 18 Jul 2019

BACKGROUND: The processes of DNA supercoiling and transcription are interdependent because the movement of a transcription elongation complex simultaneously induces under- and overwinding of the DNA duplex and because the initiation, elongation and termination steps of transcription are all sensitive to the topological state of the DNA. RESULTS: Policing of the local and global supercoiling…

LncRNA MEG3 influences the proliferation and apoptosis of psoriasis epidermal cells by targeting miR-21/caspase-8

Haiyan Jia, Kai Zhang, Wenjing Lü et al. · 28 Oct 2019

BACKGROUND: It was reported that microRNA-21(miR-21) was differentially expressed in the keratinocytes of psoriasis patients, and it may influence the apoptosis and proliferation of cells. The role of lncRNA maternally expressed gene3 (MEG3), a competing endogenous RNAs of miR-21, in the progression of psoriasis remains unclear. We aimed to unfold the influence of MEG3 and…

Lamin A/C and Emerin depletion impacts chromatin organization and dynamics in the interphase nucleus

Devika Ranade, Roopali Pradhan, Muhunden Jayakrishnan et al. · 22 May 2019

BACKGROUND: Nuclear lamins are type V intermediate filament proteins that maintain nuclear structure and function. Furthermore, Emerin - an interactor of Lamin A/C, facilitates crosstalk between the cytoskeleton and the nucleus as it also interacts with actin and Nuclear Myosin 1 (NM1). RESULTS: Here we show that the depletion of Lamin A/C or Emerin, alters…

Differential contribution of p300 and CBP to regulatory element acetylation in mESCs

Sara Martire, Jennifer Nguyen, Aishwarya Sundaresan et al. · 20 Jul 2020

BACKGROUND: The transcription coactivators CREB binding protein (CBP) and p300 are highly homologous acetyltransferases that mediate histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) at regulatory elements such as enhancers and promoters. Although in most cases, CBP and p300 are considered to be functionally identical, both proteins are indispensable for development and there is evidence of tissue-specific…

BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official BMC (BioMed Central) format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does BMC Molecular and Cell Biology use?
BMC Molecular and Cell Biology uses Numbered (Vancouver) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title. BMC Molecular and Cell Biology. 2023;12(3):45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to BMC Molecular and Cell Biology?
No. DocuGuru generates the bmcart LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a BMC (BioMed Central)-ready BMC Molecular and Cell Biology document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is BMC Molecular and Cell Biology?
BMC / BioMed Central journal. It is a life sciences and medicine journal, published by BMC (BioMed Central).
Can I export a submission-ready BMC Molecular and Cell Biology PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template (the bmcart class) that is ready to submit to BMC (BioMed Central), together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template cost?
You can start writing in the BMC Molecular and Cell Biology template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready BMC Molecular and Cell Biology PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
