Engineering orthogonal dual transcription factors for multi-input synthetic promoters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Synthetic biology has seen an explosive growth in the capability of engineering artificial gene circuits from transcription factors (TFs), particularly in bacteria. However, most artificial networks still employ the same core set of TFs (for example LacI,

Genetic Influence on Gonadotropic Activity in Mice1 [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Reproduction, 1971
Mice differing at a single genetic locus, pink-eyed dilution (p) release different numbers of ova in response to exogenous gonadotropic stimulation. The presence of pink-eyed dilution (p) or of its allele P-unstable (p”) in the genotype of the mouse generally increases the number of ova released in response to injections of pregnant mare’s serum (PMS ...

The multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) transporter DTX51 antagonizes non‐cell‐autonomous HLS1–AMP1 signaling in a region‐specific manner

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Arabidopsis mutants hls1 hlh1 and amp1 lamp1 exhibit pleiotropic developmental phenotypes. Although the functions of the causative genes remain unclear, they act in the same genetic pathway and are thought to generate non‐cell‐autonomous signals.

Conserved mosquito/parasite interactions affect development of Plasmodium falciparum in Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2008
In much of sub-Saharan Africa, the mosquito Anopheles gambiae is the main vector of the major human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. Convenient laboratory studies have identified mosquito genes that affect positively or negatively the ...

Ergothioneine supplementation improves pup phenotype and survival in a murine model of spinal muscular atrophy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

Residue K28 of Zika Virus NS5 Protein Is Implicated in Virus Replication and Antagonism of STAT2

open access: yesMicroorganisms
The identification of four potential nonstructural 5 (NS5) residues—K28, K45, V335, and S749—that share the same amino acid preference in STAT2-interacting flaviviruses [Dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV)], but not in STAT2-non-interacting ...

CRISPR/Cas9 Mediated Genome Engineering for Improvement of Horticultural Crops

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Horticultural crops are an important part of agriculture for food as well as nutritional security. However, several pests and diseases along with adverse abiotic environmental factors pose a severe threat to these crops by affecting their quality and ...

Mutant and chimeric recobinant plasminogen activatorsproduction in eukaryotic cellsand preliminary characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Mutant urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) genes and hybrid genes between tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and u-PA have been designed to direct the synthesis of new plasminogen activators and to investigate the structure-function ...

Accurate timekeeping is controlled by a cycling activator in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Transcriptional feedback loops are key to circadian clock function in many organisms. Current models of the Arabidopsis circadian network consist of several coupled feedback loops composed almost exclusively of transcriptional repressors.
