Retinoblastoma family genes [PDF]
The retinoblastoma gene Rb was the first tumor suppressor gene cloned, and it is well known as a negative regulator of the cell cycle through its ability to bind the transcription factor E2F and repress transcription of genes required for S phase. Although over 100 other proteins have been reported to interact with Rb, in most cases these interactions ...

Characterization of Murine Carcinoembryonic Antigen Gene Family Members [PDF]
The carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a human tumor marker whose gene belongs to a family with more than 20 members. This gene family codes for a group of proteins with in vitro cell adhesion properties and for a group of abundantly expressed pregnancy ...

Gene Cluster Statistics with Gene Families [PDF]
Identifying genomic regions that descended from a common ancestor is important for understanding the function and evolution of genomes. In distantly related genomes, clusters of homologous gene pairs are evidence of candidate homologous regions. Demonstrating the statistical significance of such "gene clusters" is an essential component of comparative ...

Coevolution of gene families in prokaryotes [PDF]
We study gene family coevolution on a tree of life based on a large-scale ancestral gene content reconstruction, which includes gene duplication and deletion events. The insights obtained from this study are threefold: (1) Global properties, such as the distribution of coevolution partners and the formation of disconnected clusters of coevolving ...

Lipocalin-2 in Fructose-Induced Fatty Liver Disease
The intake of excess dietary fructose most often leads to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Fructose is metabolized mainly in the liver and its chronic consumption results in lipogenic gene expression in this organ.
