A standard nomenclature for gene designation in the Rosaceae
(Springer, 2015)
The plant family Rosaceae is comprised of a highly
diverse group of plants, with a wide range of ornamental and
agricultural uses throughout the world. Comparative genomic
analyses between rosaceous species are increasingly ...
The Irx gene family in zebrafish: genomic structure, evolution and initial characterization of irx5b
(SPRINGER, 2004-04-03)
Genes of the iroquois (Iro/Irx) family are
highly conserved from Drosophila to mammals and they
have been implicated in a number of developmental
processes. In flies, the Iro genes participate in patterning
events in ...
A gene family encoding heterogeneous histone H1 proteins in Trypanosoma cruzi
(1994)
A gene family encoding a set of histone H1 proteins in Trypanosoma cruzi is described. The sequence of 3 genomic and 4 cDNA clones revealed the presence of several motifs characteristic of histone H1 although heterogeneity ...
Transcriptional response of Atlantic salmon families to Piscirickettsia salmonis infection highlights the relevance of the iron-deprivation defence system
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Background: Piscirickettsiosis or Salmonid Rickettsial Septicaemia (SRS) is a bacterial disease that has a major economic impact on the Chilean salmon farming industry. Despite the fact that Piscirickettsia salmonis has ...
E180splice mutation in the growth hormone receptor gene in a Chilean family with growth hormone insensitivity: A probable common mediterranean ancestor
(Freund Publishing House Ltd, 2008)
Mutations in the GH receptor gene have been identified as the cause of growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder. We studied the clinical and biochemical characteristics and the ...
Growth Response and Expression of Muscle Growth–Related Candidate Genes in Adult Zebrafish Fed Plant and Fishmeal Protein–Based Diets
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2013)
The main objective of this study was to examine the effects of a plant protein- vs. fishmeal-based diet on growth
response in a population of 24 families, as well as expression of growth-related genes in the muscle of ...
The relation between hairpin formation by mitochondrial WANCY tRNAs and the occurrence of the light strand replication origin in Lepidosauria
(Elsevier, 2014)
Mitochondrial light strand DNA replication is initiated at light strand replication origins (OLs), short stem-loop hairpins formed by the heavy strand DNA. OL-like secondary structures are also formed by heavy strand DNA ...
Gene silencing and applications for functional gene validation: the case of geminiviruses
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Facultad de Agronomía, Centro Editorial, 2011)
Plants are able to recognize and degrade double-strand RNA molecules employing the mechanism of post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS). PTGS is both a vegetal defense strategy against viral infections and a conserved ...
Characterization of the acetohydroxyacid synthase multigene family in the tetraploide plant Chenopodium quinoa
(PUCV, 2015)
Background: Currently, the technology called Clearfield (R) is used in the development of crops resistant to herbicides that inhibit the enzyme acetohydroxy acid synthase (AHAS, EC 2.2.1.6). AHAS is the first enzyme of the ...
Familial tumoral calcinosis caused by a novel FGF23 mutation: Response to induction of tubular renal acidosis with acetazolamide and the non-calcium phosphate binder sevelamer
(2009)
Hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC) is an uncommon disease characterized by periarticular calcifications produced by the deposition of amorphous extraosseous calcifications of hydroxyapatite. It is associated ...
