DNA methylation at the DAT promoter and risk for psychopathology. Intergenerational transmission between school-age youths and their parents in a community sample [PDF]
Background: The effect of gene polymorphisms and promoter methylation, associated with maladaptive developmental outcomes, vary depending on environmental factors (e.g., parental psychopathology).

Spatial preferences of microRNA targets in 3' untranslated regions [PDF]
MicroRNAs are an important class of regulatory RNAs which repress animal genes by preferentially interacting with complementary sequence motifs in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of target mRNAs. Computational methods have been developed which can successfully predict which microRNA may target which mRNA on a genome-wide scale.We address how predicted

Recombinants between Deformed wing virus and Varroa destructor virus-1 may prevail in Varroa destructor-infested honeybee colonies [PDF]
We have used high-throughput Illumina sequencing to identify novel recombinants between deformed wing virus (DWV) and Varroa destructor virus-1 (VDV-1), which accumulate to higher levels than DWV in both honeybees and Varroa destructor mites.

Translational medicine: untranslated regions and the stop codons [PDF]
4P medicine is impossible without an efficient transfer of advanced laboratory techniques (such as regenerative cell technology, high-throughput sequencing, genome editing, etc.) into clinical practice. Translational Medicine a new scientific field, designed to reduce the time of transfer of long-term achievements of fundamental scientific research in ...

Mapping the Pax6 3’ untranslated region microRNA regulatory landscape
Background PAX6 is a homeodomain transcription factor that acts in a highly dosage-sensitive manner to regulate the development and function of the eyes, nose, central nervous system, gut, and endocrine pancreas. Several individual microRNAs (miRNA) have

MicroRNA genes and their target 3'-untranslated regions are infrequently somatically mutated in ovarian cancers. [PDF]
MicroRNAs are key regulators of gene expression and have been shown to have altered expression in a variety of cancer types, including epithelial ovarian cancer.

Chimerization of antibodies by isolation of rearranged genomic variable regions by the polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
We describe a new method for amplification, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), of rearranged segments encoding the variable part of light and heavy chains of an antibody (Ab) from the chromosomal DNA of hybridoma cells for the chimerization ofAbs.

Transcriptional Repression, a Novel Function for 3' Untranslated Regions [PDF]
The transcription rates of the rat serine protease inhibitor 2.3 and 2.1 genes (spi 2.3 and spi 2.1), which are normally very low and high, respectively, are inversely modulated during inflammation. Two growth‐hormone‐response elements (GHRE‐I and GHRE‐II) maintain the spi 2.1 gene under the stringent control of growth hormone [Le Cam, A., Pantescu, V.,
