Cross-species conservation of a polymorphic dinucleotide repeat in the dystrophin gene
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-05)
Location of the 9257 and ataxia mutations on mouse Chromosome 18
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1996-06)
The location of three mutations on proximal Chromosome (Chr) 18 was determined by analysis of the offspring of several backcrosses. The results demonstrate that ataxia and the insertional mutation TgN9257Mm are separated ...
Macromolecular organization and genetic mapping of a rapidly evolving chromosome-specific tandem repeat family (B77) in cotton (Gossypium)
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1998-12)
Isolation and characterization of the most prominent repetitive element families in the genome of tetraploid cotton (Gossypium barbadense L; [39]) revealed a small subset of families that showed very different properties ...
Protein kinase C and clostridial neurotoxins affect discrete and related steps in the secretory pathway
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-12)
1. The effects on catecholamine secretion of activation of protein kinase C and clostridial neurotoxins were examined in digitonin-permeabilized bovine adrenal chromaffin cells.
Selection of rare event cells expressing [beta]-galactosidase
(Elsevier, 1991-06)
The ACAS Interactive Laser Cytometer was used to screen and select mammalian cells in culture infected with a retrovirus construct containing the Escherichia coli lacZ and neomycin resistance genes. The product of expression ...
Sequence of the fourth and fifth Photosystem II Type I chlorophyll a/b -binding protein genes of Arabidopsis thaliana and evidence for the presence of a full complement of the extended CAB gene family
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1992-08)
A second locus ( Lhb1B ) encoding Photosystem II Type I chlorophyll a/b -binding (CAB) polypeptides was identified in Arabidopsis thaliana . This locus carries two genes in an inverted orientation. The predicted sequences ...
Human L1 retrotransposition: insights and peculiarities learned from a cultured cell retrotransposition assay
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1999-11)
Long Interspersed Nuclear Elements (L1s or LINEs) are the most abundant retrotransposons in the human genome, and they comprise approximately 17% of DNA. L1 retrotransposition can be mutagenic, and deleterious insertions ...
Amylin increases cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes through calcitonin gene-related peptide receptors
(Elsevier, 1991-06-14)
The cellular function of amylin is investigated in L6 myocytes, a rat skeletal muscle cell line. Both rat amylin and human amylin-amide acutely cause a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes. 100 ...
Characterization of radish mitochondrial atpA: influence of nuclear background on transcription of atpA -associated sequences and relationship with male sterility
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1990-11)
We have previously shown that the mitochondrial gene atpA , encoding the α subunit of F 1 ATP synthase, is associated with DNA rearrangements and nuclear-specific transcript patterns in the male-sterile cytoplasm of Ogura ...
Nitric Oxide Synthase Activity in Genetic Hypertension
(Elsevier, 1993-07-30)
A porphyrinic sensor was used to monitor nitric oxide released from cultured endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells obtained from genetically hypertensive rats and from a normotensive reference strain of rats. ...
