Genetic Polymorphism of the Nrf2 Promoter Region (rs35652124) Is Associated with the Risk of Diabetic Foot Ulcers [PDF]
The genetic polymorphism in the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) gene has been reported as one of the prognosis markers for various diseases, including cancer. Nrf2 is a key transcription factor involved in wound healing by regulating angiogenesis.

Variation in the flowering time orthologs BrFLC and BrSOC1 in a natural population of Brassica rapa. [PDF]
Understanding the genetic basis of natural phenotypic variation is of great importance, particularly since selection can act on this variation to cause evolution.

Statistically Significant Strings are Related to Regulatory Elements in the Promoter Regions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Finding out statistically significant words in DNA and protein sequences forms the basis for many genetic studies. By applying the maximal entropy principle, we give one systematic way to study the nonrandom occurrence of words in DNA or protein ...

Screening of the transcriptional regulatory regions of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
Background Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has neurotrophic activity which is mediated by its main agonist receptor, VEGFR2. Dysregulation of VEGF causes motor neurone degeneration in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and

Genetic analysis of the dsz promoter and associated regulatory regions of Rhodococcus erythropolis IGTS8 [PDF]
The dsz gene cluster of Rhodococcus erythropolis IGTS8 comprises three genes, dszA, dszB, and dszC, whose products are involved in the conversion of dibenzothiophene (DBT) to 2-hydroxybiphenyl and sulfite. This organism can use DBT as the sole sulfur source but not as a carbon source.

A sigma factor toolbox for orthogonal gene expression in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Synthetic genetic sensors and circuits enable programmable control over timing and conditions of gene expression and, as a result, are increasingly incorporated into the control of complex and multi-gene pathways.
