The fosfomycin resistance gene, fosC, has been cloned from the fosfomycin-producing organism, Pseudomonas syringae PB-5123. Sequence analysis upstream of this gene found a new ORF showing significant homology to 2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid epoxidase ...

Module-based construction of plasmids for chromosomal integration of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
Integration of an external gene into a fission yeast chromosome is useful to investigate the effect of the gene product. An easy way to knock-in a gene construct is use of an integration plasmid, which can be targeted and inserted to a chromosome through

Cloning, organization, and expression of the bioluminescence genes of Xenorhabdus luminescens [PDF]
The lux genes of Xenorhabdus luminescens, a symbiont of the nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The expression of these genes in E. coli was qualitatively similar to their expression in X. luminescens. The organization of the genes is similar to that found in the marine luminous bacteria. Hybridization

Spread of premalignant mutant clones and cancer initiation in multilayered tissue [PDF]
Over 80% of human cancers originate from the epithelium, which covers the outer and inner surfaces of organs and blood vessels. In stratified epithelium, the bottom layers are occupied by stem and stem-like cells that continually divide and replenish the upper layers. In this work, we study the spread of premalignant mutant clones and cancer initiation

Physiology, structure, and regulation of the cloned organic anion transporters [PDF]
1. The transport of negatively charged drugs, xenobiotics, and metabolites by epithelial tissues, particularly the kidney, plays critical roles in controlling their distribution, concentration, and retention in the body. Thus, organic anion transporters (OATs) impact both their therapeutic efficacy and potential toxicity. 2.

Heterologous expression of Cysteine Protease 8 from Trichomonas foetus in Pichia pastoris [PDF]
Bovine trichomonosis is one of the most neglected venereal diseases of cattle. Trichomonas foetus, the causative organism was known over decades and is responsible for severe reproductive failure.

MiR-433 and miR-127 arise from independent overlapping primary transcripts encoded by the miR-433-127 locus. [PDF]
MicroRNAs play significant roles in development, metabolism and carcinogenesis, however, limited information is available about their primary transcripts and the transcriptional regulation of the microRNA genes.

Characterizing and Evaluating The Impact of Software Interface Clones [PDF]
Software Interfaces are meant to describe contracts governing interactions between logic modules. Interfaces, if well designed, significantly reduce software complexity and ease maintainability . However, as software evolves, the organization and the quality of software interfaces gradually deteriorate.
