Cloning, Genomic Organization, and Characterization of a Human Cholinephosphotransferase [PDF]
A cholinephosphotransferase activity catalyzes the final step in the de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine via the transfer of a phosphocholine moiety from CDP choline to diacylglycerol. Ethanolaminephosphotransferase activity catalyzes a similar reaction substituting CDP ethanolamine as the phosphobase donor.

Microarray Assistant Clone Organizer and Array Simulator [PDF]
Microarrays are extensively used in molecular biology experiments. While several vendors offer microarrays on a variety of platforms, many researchers prefer to use custom microarrays with a selected list of clones for their experiments. Many research centers have established core facilities for the production of custom microarrays.

Seabream ghrelin: cDNA cloning, genomic organization and promoter studies [PDF]
Recent studies have indicated that ghrelin stimulates growth hormone release from the pituitary via the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). We have previously isolated two GHSR subtypes from the pituitary of the black seabream Acanthopagrus schlegeli.

Over the past 10-15 years there has been an explosion of interest in apoptosis. The delayed realisation that cell death is an essential part of life for any multicellular organism has meant that, despite the recent and rapid developments of the last ...

Attack of the Clones: Legislative Approaches to Human Cloning in the United States [PDF]
The legal concerns involving the application of cloning technology to humans should be of utmost concern, as the area is extremely complex. Cloning could potentially have great benefits or disastrous effects.

Molecular cloning of integrated simian sarcoma virus: genome organization of infectious DNA clones. [PDF]
The integrated form of simian sarcoma virus (SSV) was molecularly cloned in the Charon 16A strain of bacteriophage lambda. In transfection analysis, the recombinant viral DNAs demonstrated the ability to transform cells in tissue culture at high efficiency.

tRNA genes in mycobacteria: organization and molecular cloning
DNAs from nine mycobacteria cleaved with restriction endonucleases were hybridized with cDNA probes synthesized to tRNAs from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium smegmatis. The tRNA genes are conserved, but their gross genomic organization has diverged in six of the nine species examined. Organisms of the M.

Molecular Studies on Preproinsulin Gene
Insulin plays an important role in maintaining the blood glucose level of the body. The β-cells of pancreas produce insulin in the form of precursor that is preproinsulin.

Estimating genetic variability in non-model taxa: a general procedure for discriminating sequence errors from actual variation. [PDF]
Genetic variation is the driving force of evolution and as such is of central interest for biologists. However, inadequate discrimination of errors from true genetic variation could lead to incorrect estimates of gene copy number, population genetic ...

Developments in the tools and methodologies of synthetic biology. [PDF]
Synthetic biology is principally concerned with the rational design and engineering of biologically based parts, devices, or systems. However, biological systems are generally complex and unpredictable, and are therefore, intrinsically difficult to ...
