A review of the new HGNC gene family resource
Human Genomics, 2016 The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) approves unique gene symbols and names for human loci. As well as naming genomic loci, we manually curate genes into family sets based on shared characteristics such as function, homology or phenotype.

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2021 Despite significant advances in cystic fibrosis (CF) treatments, a one-time treatment for this life-shortening disease remains elusive. Stable complementation of the disease-causing mutation with a normal copy of the CF transmembrane conductance ...

Genome-wide identification of Cellulose-like synthase D gene family in Dendrobium catenatum
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021 Dendrobium catenatum, which grows on the semi humid rocks in the mountains, has been at the top of the ‘Nine Immortals of China’ since ancient times. It is a kind of yin tonic medicine and its main active component is polysaccharide.

Genome-wide identification and characterization of the bHLH gene family in tomato
BMC Genomics, 2015 BackgroundThe basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins are a large superfamily of transcription factors, and play a central role in a wide range of metabolic, physiological, and developmental processes in higher organisms.

Genome-wide identification, phylogeny and expression analysis of GRAS gene family in tomato
BMC Plant Biology, 2015 GRAS transcription factors usually act as integrators of multiple growth regulatory and environmental signals, including axillary shoot meristem formation, root radial pattering, phytohormones, light signaling, and abiotic/biotic stress.

Oncogene, 1999 p73 and p63 are two recently discovered p53 homologs. Like p53, these proteins can recognize canonical p53 DNA-binding sites and, when overproduced, can activate p53-responsive target genes and induce apoptosis. Unlike p53, these genes undergo complex alternative splicing which, at least in the case of p63, yields proteins with widely divergent ...

The Caenorhabditis chemoreceptor gene families [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2008 Chemoreceptor proteins mediate the first step in the transduction of environmental chemical stimuli, defining the breadth of detection and conferring stimulus specificity. Animal genomes contain families of genes encoding chemoreceptors that mediate taste, olfaction, and pheromone responses.

Lentiviral vectors transduce lung stem cells without disrupting plasticity
Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021 Life-long expression of a gene therapy agent likely requires targeting stem cells. Here we ask the question: does viral vector transduction or ectopic expression of a therapeutic transgene preclude airway stem cell function?
