Towards the Physical Map of the Trypanosoma cruzi Nuclear Genome: Construction of YAC and BAC Libraries of the Reference Clone T. cruzi CL-Brener [PDF]
Strategies to construct the physical map of the Trypanosoma cruzi nuclear genome have to capitalize on three main advantages of the parasite genome, namely (a) its small size, (b) the fact that all chromosomes can be defined, and many of them can be ...

Hepatitis B (HB) vaccines (Heptavax-II and Bimmugen) designed based on HBV genotypes A and C are mainly used for vaccination against HB in Japan. To determine whether there are differences in the genetic background associated with vaccine responsiveness,

The medaka Oryzias latipes is a small egg-laying freshwater teleost, and has become an excellent model system for ecotoxicology, developmental genetics, genomics and evolutionary biology studies. A high-quality draft genome sequence (700 Mb) of the medaka inbred strain, Hd-rR, has now been completed. In this review, we present an overview of the medaka

Genome-wide copy number variation analysis of hepatitis B infection in a Japanese population
Hepatitis B: Gene copy numbers associated with risk of infection The risk of contracting the hepatitis B virus may be linked to the number of copies of certain genes in an individual’s genome.

Claspin-Dependent and -Independent Chk1 Activation by a Panel of Biological Stresses
Replication stress has been suggested to be an ultimate trigger of carcinogenesis. Oncogenic signal, such as overexpression of CyclinE, has been shown to induce replication stress. Here, we show that various biological stresses, including heat, oxidative

The Feline Genome Project [PDF]
▪ Abstract The compilation of a dense gene map and eventually a whole genome sequence (WGS) of the domestic cat holds considerable value for human genome annotation, for veterinary medicine, and for insight into the evolution of genome organization among mammals.

Deciphering Signatures of Mutational Processes Operative in Human Cancer
The genome of a cancer cell carries somatic mutations that are the cumulative consequences of the DNA damage and repair processes operative during the cellular lineage between the fertilized egg and the cancer cell. Remarkably, these mutational processes
