Candidate and non-candidate genes in behavior genetics

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2013
In this review we discuss recent developments in psychiatric genetics: on the one hand, studies using whole genome approaches (genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and exome sequencing) are coming close to finding genes and molecular variants that contribute to disease susceptibility; on the other candidate genes, such as the serotonin transporter ...

CD14 GENE AS A CANDIDATE GENE FOR IMMUNOMODULATION : A REVIEW [PDF]

Exploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2012
CD14 molecule and CD14 gene has been characterized in various livestock species. Structural analysis of CD14 molecule and CD14 gene encoding it is helpful for understanding its function for immuno-modulation. CD14 gene has been observed to be highly

Genes involved in carotene synthesis and mating in Blakeslea trispora [PDF]

, 2008
Mating of Blakeslea trispora and other molds of the order Mucorales requires the interaction of mycelia of opposite sex, (+) and (-), leading to the development of specialized structures and to an enhanced accumulation of beta-carotene.

Is Mortalin a Candidate Gene for T1DM ?

Autoimmunity, 2004
Mortalin has been found to be up-regulated by 2D-protein gel analysis in isolated rodent islets exposed to cytokines. In islets from two rat strains with different sensitivity to the toxic effects of cytokines we observed a significant difference in IL-1beta mediated mortalin expression.

Finding New Cell Wall Regulatory Genes in Populus trichocarpa Using Multiple Lines of Evidence. [PDF]

, 2019
Understanding the regulatory network controlling cell wall biosynthesis is of great interest in Populus trichocarpa, both because of its status as a model woody perennial and its importance for lignocellulosic products.

Mapping Novel Loci and Candidate Genes Associated with Cadmium Content in Maize Using Genome-Wide Association Analysis

Agriculture
Cadmium is a toxic, carcinogenic element that threatens food safety due to its tendency to be absorbed by plants along with essential nutrients. This study conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using SNP genotyping data from 170 natural maize ...

Positional and functional mapping of a neuroblastoma differentiation gene on chromosome 11 [PDF]

, 2005
Background: Loss of chromosome 11q defines a subset of high-stage aggressive neuroblastomas. Deletions are typically large and mapping efforts have thus far not lead to a well defined consensus region, which hampers the identification of positional ...

Modeling the functional genomics of autism using human neurons. [PDF]

, 2012
Human neural progenitors from a variety of sources present new opportunities to model aspects of human neuropsychiatric disease in vitro. Such in vitro models provide the advantages of a human genetic background combined with rapid and easy manipulation,
