Does occupational exposure to solvents and pesticides in association with glutathione S-transferase A1, M1, P1, and T1 polymorphisms increase the risk of bladder cancer? The Belgrade case-control study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 OBJECTIVE: We investigated the role of the glutathione S-transferase A1, M1, P1 and T1 gene polymorphisms and potential effect modification by occupational exposure to different chemicals in Serbian bladder cancer male patients.

Reconsideration of S-genotype for a Japanese Pear 'Kumoi'
Engei Gakkai zasshi, 2004 A Japanese pear 'Kumoi' was previously determined as S3S4 by pollination tests, but its S-genotype was reconsidered following our PCR-RFLP (S1 to S9) analyses and pollination tests. Based on its compatibility with 'Seigyoku' (S3S4), and PCR-RFLP analysis, 'Kumoi' was classified as S1S3 for the first time.

A viable mouse model of factor X deficiency provides evidence for maternal transfer of factor X. [PDF]
, 2008 BackgroundActivated factor X (FXa) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays a pivotal role in blood coagulation by converting prothrombin to thrombin. There are no reports of humans with complete deficiency of FX, and knockout of murine F10 is

Molecular S-genotyping of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) genetic resources [PDF]
Horticultural Science, 2019 Sweet cherries are self-incompatible, which is determined by a gametophytic self-incompatibility system (GSI). The self-incompatibility is controlled by a multi-allelic S-locus. Knowledge about the S-allele constitution of the cultivars is essential for fruit growers and breeders. Recently, molecular PCR-based methods have been developed to distinguish
