Marker-Assisted Selection and Genomic Selection
, 2017 Breeding techniques and molecular tools, i.e., biotechnology, have increased crop yield over the last century. Marker-assisted selection and, more recently, genome-wide association studies and genomic selection have been used as tools of breeding programs, especially in the resistant genotype selection.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Efficient Breeding by Genomic Mating
Frontiers in Genetics, 2016 Selection in breeding programs can be done by using phenotypes (phenotypic selection), pedigree relationship (breeding value selection) or molecular markers (marker assisted selection or genomic selection).

Accuracy of genomic breeding value prediction for intramuscular fat using different genomic relationship matrices in Hanwoo (Korean cattle) [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017 Objective Intramuscular fat is one of the meat quality traits that is considered in the selection strategies for Hanwoo (Korean cattle). Different methods are used to estimate the breeding value of selection candidates.

Non-additive Effects in Genomic Selection [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2018 In the last decade, genomic selection has become a standard in the genetic evaluation of livestock populations. However, most procedures for the implementation of genomic selection only consider the additive effects associated with SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) markers used to calculate the prediction of the breeding values of candidates for ...

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...
