The structural and functional organization of the murine HOX gene family resembles that of Drosophila homeotic genes
This paper reports the cloning of the fourth major murine homeogene complex, HOX-5. The partial characterization of this gene cluster revealed the presence of two novel genes (Hox-5.2, Hox-5.3) located at the 5' extremity of this complex. In situ hybridiza ...
1989Maternal modulation of the inheritable meiosis I error Dipl I in mouse oocytes is associated with the type of mitochondrial DNA
The ovulation of diploid oocytes, abnormally arrested at or during the first meiotic division, is an inheritable trait (DiplI) in mice and modulated by a maternally transmitted factor. By repeated backcrossing, mouse strains with identical nuclear encoded ...
1988Hox-5.1 defines a homeobox-containing gene locus on mouse chromosome 2
We have isolated a murine homeobox-containing gene, Hox-5.1, by virtue of its relatedness to the Hox-1.4 gene. In situ hybridization to metaphase spreads mapped Hox-5.1 to band D of mouse chromosome 2. Sequence comparisons indicate that Hox-5.1 is the muri ...
1988Lack of correlation between serum titres of interferon alpha, beta, natural killer cell activity and clinical susceptibility in mice infected with two isolates of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus
Intracerebral infection of adult immunocompetent mice with most strains of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) caused a systemic infection and led to severe meningoencephalitis and death due to the induced T cell immune response. The susceptibility o ...
1987Functional analysis of T lymphocyte subsets in antiviral host defense
The role of different T cell subsets in antiviral host defense was investigated by treating thymectomized C57BL/6 and CBA/J mice with monoclonal rat anti-Lyt-2 or anti-L3/T4 IgG 2b antibodies 14 and 10 days before infection. This treatment depleted the res ...
1987Homoeobox gene expression in mouse embryos varies with position by the primitive streak stage
Pattern formation in animal development requires that genes be expressed differentially according to position in the sheets of cells that make up the early embryo. The homoeobox-containing genes of Drosophila are control genes active both in the establishm ...
1986High susceptibility for diploidy in ovulated oocytes from XO mice
Adult female mice of the "sensitive" NMRI/Han strain ovulate diploid oocytes after gonadotropin treatment. Other mouse strains are "non-sensitive" with respect to the ovulation of such diploid oocytes. In this study we combined the impaired ovarian situati ...
1986Islet Transplantation in Mice Differing in the I and S Subregions of the H-2 Complex
Pancreatic islets from A.TH mice were transplanted into the spleen or streptozotocin (SZ)-diabetic A.TL mice. The two strains of mice are congenic inbred strains, differing only in the I and S subregions of the H-2 complex. The allogeneic islet grafts decr ...
