Virulence factor secretion and translocation by Bordetella species [PDF]

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2009
Here we review the Bordetella virulence secretome with an emphasis on factors that translocate into target cells. Recent advances in understanding the functions of adenylate cyclase toxin, a type 1 secretion system (T1SS) substrate, and pertussis toxin, a type IV secretion system (T4SS) substrate, are briefly described and a compilation of additional ...

International study of factors affecting human chromosome translocations [PDF]

Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 2008
Chromosome translocations in peripheral blood lymphocytes of normal, healthy humans increase with age, but the effects of gender, race, and cigarette smoking on background translocation yields have not been examined systematically. Further, the shape of the relationship between age and translocation frequency (TF) has not been definitively determined ...

A family case of fertile human 45,X,psu dic(15;Y) males [PDF]

, 2006
We report on a familial case including four male probands from three generations with a 45,X,psu dic(15;Y)(p11.2;q12) karyotype. 45,X is usually associated with a female phenotype and only rarely with maleness, due to translocation of small Y chromosomal
