Gasotransmitters, poisons, and antimicrobials: it's a gas, gas, gas! [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We review recent examples of the burgeoning literature on three gases that have major impacts in biology and microbiology. NO, CO and H2S are now co-classified as endogenous gasotransmitters with profound effects on mammalian physiology and, potentially,

Human globin ψB2is not a globin-related sequence [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1982
We have determined the complete nucleotide sequence of 3.4 kilobase pairs of DNA covering the region of the human beta globin gene cluster where a human globin-related sequence psi beta 2 was thought to lie (Fritsch, Lawn, and Maniatis (1980) Cell 19, 959-972).

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

Pattern of cavities in globins: The case of human hemoglobin

open access: yesBiopolymers, 2009
Our aim is to shed light on the conservation of potential ligand docking sites that play an important role in ligand dynamics of globins by using the technique of filling internal cavities naturally present in hemoglobin and myoglobin with xenon atoms ...

Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

Comparison of MLPA Method for Detection of Known and Unknown Deletions in Beta Globin Gene Cluster with Old Methods (REAL-TIME, RFLP, Gap-PCR)

open access: yesMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Qum, 2008
Background and Objectives Thalassaemia is one of the most common single gene disorders, which is most prevalent in the Mediterranean, the Middle East, Indian subcontinent (malaria belt). One of the mutations that result in Thalassaemia is the deletion in

Canalization of globins in the adaptive evolution of birds

open access: yesAvian Research
The globin superfamily, central to oxygen (O2) cascade dynamics, exemplifies how canalization—evolutionary stabilization of phenotypic traits—enables vertebrates to thrive in extreme environments.

The adaptive evolution of polar fishes: Structure, function and molecular phylogeny of hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
emperature affects all molecular processes and is the major determinant of habitat suitability. Whilst there is an increasing understanding of evolutionary adaptation to temperature in some processes, several key questions often remain open about the ...

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...
