Identification of Five Putative Yeast RNA Helicase Genes [PDF]
The RNA helicase gene family encodes a group of eight homologous proteins that share regions of sequence similarity. This group of evolutionarily conserved proteins presumably all utilize ATP (or some other nucleoside triphosphate) as an energy source ...

Formation of a Unique Cluster of G-Quadruplex Structures in the HIV-1 nef Coding Region: Implications for Antiviral Activity [PDF]
G-quadruplexes are tetraplex structures of nucleic acids that can form in G-rich sequences. Their presence and functional role have been established in telomeres, oncogene promoters and coding regions of the human chromosome.

DNA Renaturation at the Water-Phenol Interface [PDF]
We study DNA adsorption and renaturation in a water-phenol two-phase system, with or without shaking. In very dilute solutions, single-stranded DNA is adsorbed at the interface in a salt-dependent manner.

Variability of a portion of RNA 3 containing the coat protein gene of Citrus variegation virus (CVV) using single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) [PDF]
A portion of RNA 3 of Citrus variegation virus (CVV), comprising part of the intergenic region and the coat protein (CP) gene from eight viral isolates, was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been implicated in an increasing number of human diseases. Many of these mutations are heteroplasmic and are only present at low levels in readily accessible human tissue such as blood.

Mini-chromosome maintenance complexes form a filament to remodel DNA structure and topology. [PDF]
Deregulation of mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) proteins is associated with genomic instability and cancer. MCM complexes are recruited to replication origins for genome duplication.

Optimization of Nonisotopic PCR–Single-Strand Conformation Polymorphism Analysis [PDF]
PCR–single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis is an attractive technique used to screen for unknown mutations because of its simplicity and widespread applicability (1). The technique relies on single-nucleotide variations modifying the conformation of single-stranded DNA and therefore its mobility in polyacrylamide gels. The detection of
