Gene mapping in experimental hypertension. [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1991
In the rat, the results of genetic linkage studies by "candidate" gene or "positional mapping" approaches have suggested that DNA sequences that regulate blood pressure may be located in the vicinity of the kallikrein gene family on chromosome 1, the gene for angiotensin-converting enzyme on chromosome 10, the renin gene on chromosome 13, and the major

Three novel polymorphic microsatellite markers for the glaucoma locus GLC1B by datamining tetranucleotide repeats on chromosome 2p12-q12

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2009
In order to identify new markers around the glaucoma locus GLC1B as a tool to refine its critical region at 2p11.2-2q11.2, we searched the critical region sequence obtained from the UCSC database for tetranucleotide (GATA)n and (GTCT)n repeats of at ...

Identification of a recessive gene RgM4G52 conferring red glume, stem, and rachis in a Triticum boeoticum mutant

Frontiers in Plant Science
Anthocyanins are plant secondary metabolites belonging to the polyphenol class of natural water-soluble phytopigments. The accumulation of anthocyanins in different plant tissues can improve plant survival under adverse conditions.

Interactions Among Multiple Quantitative Trait Loci Underlie Rhizome Development of Perennial Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Perennial crops have some advantages over annuals in soil erosion prevention, lower labor and water requirements, carbon sequestration, and maintenance of thriving soil ecosystems. Rhizome, a kind of root-like underground stem, is a critical component of

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Exact protein distributions for stochastic models of gene expression using partitioning of Poisson processes [PDF]

, 2013
Stochasticity in gene expression gives rise to fluctuations in protein levels across a population of genetically identical cells. Such fluctuations can lead to phenotypic variation in clonal populations, hence there is considerable interest in quantifying noise in gene expression using stochastic models.

Unconventional mRNA processing and degradation pathways for the polycistronic yrzI (spyTA) mRNA in Bacillus subtilis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The S1025 peptide is the major antidote to the YrzI toxin, which we renamed here as SpyT (Small Peptide YrzI Toxin) and SpyA (Small Peptide YrzI Antitoxin) (1). Degradation of the toxin–antitoxin spyTA mRNA, either by a translation‐dependent cleavage by the endoribonuclease Rae1 (2) or by direct attack by 3′‐exoribonucleases (3), also contributes to ...

Map-based cloning of the gene Pm21 that confers broad spectrum resistance to wheat powdery mildew [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important cereal crops. Wheat powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) is a continuing threat to wheat production. The Pm21 gene, originating from Dasypyrum villosum, confers high resistance to all known Bgt races and has been widely applied in wheat breeding in China.

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.
