Identification of the keratin-associated protein 13-3 (KAP13-3) gene in sheep

open access: yesOpen Journal of Genetics, 2011
Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are a major stru- ctural component of hair and wool fibres, and play a critical role in determining the properties of the fibre. To date, forty functional high sulphur KAP genes from fourteen families have been identified in hu- mans, but only seven functional high sulphur KAP genes have been identified in sheep. This

Development of allele-specific therapeutic siRNA in Meesmann epithelial corneal dystrophy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundMeesmann epithelial corneal dystrophy (MECD) is an inherited eye disorder caused by dominant-negative mutations in either keratins K3 or K12, leading to mechanical fragility of the anterior corneal epithelium, the outermost covering of the eye.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...
