Genetic Diversity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Housekeeping Genes [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2003 ABSTRACT Molecular typing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains is an important tool for epidemiological studies of gonococcal infection and transmission. The recently developed multilocus sequence typing (MLST) method is based on the genetic variation among housekeeping genes.

Predicting Housekeeping Genes Based on Fourier Analysis
PLoS ONE, 2011 Housekeeping genes (HKGs) generally have fundamental functions in basic biochemical processes in organisms, and usually have relatively steady expression levels across various tissues. They play an important role in the normalization of microarray technology.

Stability of housekeeping genes in human intervertebral disc, endplate and articular cartilage cells in multiple conditions for reliable transcriptional analysis [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2016 Quantitative gene expression analysis is widely used to evaluate the expression of specific tissue markers. To obtain reliable data it is essential to select stable housekeeping genes whose expression is not influenced by the anatomical origin of cells ...

A Novel Non-invasive Method to Detect RELM Beta Transcript in Gut Barrier Related Changes During a Gastrointestinal Nematode Infection [PDF]
, 2019 Currently, methods for monitoring changes of gut barrier integrity and the associated immune response via non-invasive means are limited. Therefore, we aimed to develop a novel non-invasive technique to investigate immunological host responses ...

Mining housekeeping genes with a Naive Bayes classifier [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2006 Traditionally, housekeeping and tissue specific genes have been classified using direct assay of mRNA presence across different tissues, but these experiments are costly and the results not easy to compare and reproduce.In this work, a Naive Bayes classifier based only on physical and functional characteristics of genes already available in databases ...

Mining SOM expression portraits: Feature selection and integrating concepts of molecular function [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Self organizing maps (SOM) enable the straightforward portraying of high-dimensional data of large sample collections in terms of sample-specific images. The analysis of their texture provides so-called spot-clusters of co-expressed

Evaluating RNA status for RT-PCR in extracts of postmortem human brain tissue
BioTechniques, 2004 Total RNA was extracted from 105 individual postmortem human brain samples representing a range of postmortem conditions. To improve upon parameters currently used to screen for RNA quality, electropherogram patterns generated by the Agilent Bioanalyzer ...

Housekeeping Genes for Phylogenetic Analysis of Eutherian Relationships [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2006 The molecular relationship of placental mammals has attracted great interest in recent years. However, 2 crucial and conflicting hypotheses remain, one with respect to the position of the root of the eutherian tree and the other the relationship between the orders Rodentia, Lagomorpha (rabbits, hares), and Primates.

Housekeeping and tissue-specific genes in mouse tissues [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2007 AbstractBackgroundThis study aims to characterize the housekeeping and tissue-specific genes in 15 mouse tissues by using the serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) strategy which indicates the relative level of expression for each transcript matched to the tag.ResultsHere, we identified constantly expressed housekeeping genes, such as eukaryotic ...
