Efficient computation of patterned covariance matrix mixed models in quantitative segregation analysis
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991)
The use of patterned covariance matrices in forming pedigree-based mixed models for quantitative traits is discussed. It is suggested that patterned covariance matrix models provide intuitive, theoretically appealing, and ...
Large-scale physical mapping within the region 22q12.3-13.1 in meningioma
(Elsevier, 1991-08)
The lack of physical mapping data strongly restricts the analysis of the meningioma chromosomal region that was assigned to the bands 22q12.3-qter. Recently, we reported a new marker D22S16 for chromosome 22 that was ...
Structure of the human cytochrome c oxidase subunit Vb gene and chromosomal mapping of the coding gene and of seven pseudogenes
(Elsevier, 1991-05)
Subunit Vb of mammalian cytochrome c oxidase (COX; EC 1.9.3.1) is encoded by a nuclear gene and assembled with the other 12 COX subunits encoded in both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA. We have cloned the gene for human COX ...
A class I jumping clone places the HLA-G gene approximately 100 kilobases from HLA-H within the HLA-A subregion of the human MHC
(Elsevier, 1991-08)
By the combination of cosmid cloning, chromosomal jumping, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), we have fine-mapped the HLA-A subregion of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Through the isolation of ...
Cellular morphogenesis in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell cycle: Localization of the CDC11 gene product and the timing of events at the budding site
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991)
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae CDC3 , CDC10 , CDC11 , and CDC12 genes encode a family of homologous proteins that are not closely related to other known proteins [Haarer BK, Ketcham SR, Ford SK, Ashcroft DJ, and Pringle ...
Increased recombination adjacent to the Huntington disease-linked D4S10 marker
(Elsevier, 1991-01)
Huntington disease (HD) is caused by a genetic defect distal to the anonymous DNA marker D4S10 in the terminal cytogenetic subband of the short arm of chromosome 4 (4p16.3). The effort to identify new markers linked to HD ...
Characterization of [beta]-endorphin-related peptides in the caudal medulla oblongata and hypothalamus of the prenatal, postnatal and adult rat
(Elsevier, 1991-09-19)
A comparison was made of [beta]-endorphin (B-END) concentrations versus post-translation products during the perinatal period in the hypothalamus and the caudal medulla oblongata. The concentration of B-END-like immunoreactivity ...
New shuttle vectors for direct cloning in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Elsevier, 1991-07-31)
We have constructed new shuttle vectors to facilitate the screening of recombinant plasmids after direct transformation of yeast cells. The vectors are pBluescript-based shuttle vectors in which the lacZ marker has been ...
Effects of single and repeated electroconvulsive therapy sessions on plasma ACTH, prolactin, growth hormone and cortisol concentrations
(Elsevier, 1991)
To study the effects of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) on hormone release, we measured circulating concentrations of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), prolactin (PRL), growth hormone (GH) and cortisol (CORT) immediately ...
A phase variation event that activates conjugation functions encoded by the Enterococcus faecalis plasmid pAD1
(Elsevier, 1991-11)
Enterococcus faecalis cells carrying the conjugative plasmid pAD1 undergo several related changes when induced by the sex pheromone cAD1. Included are the production of novel surface proteins, the formation of cellular ...
