MOLECULAR CLONING OF α-AMYLASE GENES FROM DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER. II. CLONE ORGANIZATION AND VERIFICATION [PDF]
ABSTRACT Restriction maps of an α-amylase structural gene clone, λDm65, and of four putative α-amylase pseudogene clones are presented. Two α-amylase structural genes, inverted with respect to each other, are contained in λDm65. Subregions of internal DNA sequence homology within λDm65 and of cross-homology between the presumptive ...

Shotgun Phage Display - Selection for Bacterial Receptins or other Exported Proteins
Shotgun phage display cloning involves construction of libraries from randomly fragmented bacterial chromosomal DNA, cloned genes, or eukaryotic cDNAs, into a phagemid vector.

Replication and Evolution of Quantum Species
We dwell upon the physicist's conception of `life' since Schroedinger and Wigner through to the modern-day language of living systems in the light of quantum information.

Service evaluation to establish the sensitivity, specificity and additional value of broad-range 16S rDNA PCR for the diagnosis of infective endocarditis from resected endocardial material in patients from eight UK and Ireland hospitals [PDF]
Infective endocarditis (IE) can be diagnosed in the clinical microbiology laboratory by culturing explanted heart valve material. We present a service evaluation that examines the sensitivity and specificity of a broad-range 16S rDNA polymerase chain ...

Controlled functional expression of the bacteriocins pediocin PA-1 and bactofencin A in Escherichia coli [PDF]
peer-reviewedThe bacteriocins bactofencin A (class IId) and pediocin PA-1 (class IIa) are encoded by operons with a similarly clustered gene organization including a structural peptide, an immunity protein, an ABC transporter and accessory bacteriocin ...

Emerging technologies to create inducible and genetically defined porcine cancer models
There is an emerging need for new animal models that address unmet translational cancer research requirements. Transgenic porcine models provide an exceptional opportunity due to their genetic, anatomic and physiological similarities with humans.

Cytochrome c 6-like protein as a putative donor of electrons to photosystem I in the cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC 7119 [PDF]
Most organisms performing oxygenic photosynthesis contain either cytochrome c 6 or plastocyanin, or both, to transfer electrons from cytochrome b 6-f to photosystem I. Even though plastocyanin has superseded cytochrome c 6 along evolution, plants contain

Seven-fluorochrome mouse M-FISH for high-resolution analysis of interchromosomal rearrangements [PDF]
The mouse has evolved to be the primary mammalian genetic model organism. Important applications include the modeling of human cancer and cloning experiments. In both settings, a detailed analysis of the mouse genome is essential.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).
