A novel mathematical tool for generating highly conserved protein domain via different organismal genomic landscapes [PDF]
Darwinian evolution hypothesizes that a short stretch of DNA was first constructed and then it expanded to give rise to a long strand. This long strand then produced a mix of exons, introns and repetitive DNA sequence.

Early postnatal B cell ontogeny and antibody repertoire maturation in the opossum, Monodelphis domestica. [PDF]
Marsupials are a lineage of mammals noted for giving birth to highly altricial young, which complete much of their "fetal" development externally attached to a teat.

Agarose gel serum protein electrophoresis in cats with and without lymphoma and preliminary results of tandem mass fingerprinting analysis [PDF]
<b>Background</b>: Serum electrophoretic profiles in cats are poorly characterized with respect to the protein components of the globulin fractions, and interpretation of the electrophoretograms has routinely been done in ignorance of the ...

The second known specimen of Monodelphis unistriata (Wagner) (Mammalia: Didelphimorphia), with redescription of the species and phylogenetic analysis [PDF]
Very little information exists concerning taxonomic information and phylogenetic relationships of the opossum genus Monodelphis Burnett. Of the clearly distinct named species, the least information is available for M.

Hypothesis on the dual origin of the mammalian subplate
The development of the mammalian neocortex relies heavily on subplate. The proportion of this cell population varies considerably in different mammalian species.

Mapping the prion protein distribution in marsupials: insights from comparing opossum with mouse CNS. [PDF]
The cellular form of the prion protein (PrP(C)) is a sialoglycoprotein widely expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) of mammalian species during neurodevelopment and in adulthood.

In many mammalian species including opossums, adult neurogenesis, the function of which is not completely understood, declines with aging. Aging also causes impairment of cognition.

The rod signaling pathway in marsupial retinae. [PDF]
The retinal rod pathway, featuring dedicated rod bipolar cells (RBCs) and AII amacrine cells, has been intensely studied in placental mammals. Here, we analyzed the rod pathway in a nocturnal marsupial, the South American opossum Monodelphis domestica to

Whisker touch sensing guides locomotion in small, quadrupedal mammals [PDF]
All small mammals have prominent facial whiskers that they employ as tactile sensors to guide navigation and foraging in complex habitats. Nocturnal, arboreal mammals tend to have the longest and most densely packed whiskers, and semi-aquatic mammals ...
