The molecular mechanism underlying the extinction of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) expression in rat liver during development was investigated. A mouse (BWTG3) and a rat (7777) hepatoma, both of which exhibit characteristics of fetal hepatocytes, were found to ...
The fundamental group of the Quillen complex of the symmetric group is studied and the cases where the complex is simply-connected are determined. Other results concerning the homology groups are also proved. ...
Rational homotopy theory is the study of topological spaces “modulo torsion”. When rational homotopy theorists calculate algebraic invariants of a topological space, such as its homotopy or homology groups, they retain only the nontorsion information. Alge ...
Institut fur Pflanzengenetik und Kulturpflanzenforschung (IPK), Corrensstr. 3, D-06466 Gatersleben, Germany. A complex mixture of fatty acid-derived aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols is released upon wounding of the moss Physcomitrella patens. To investigat ...
A pore-forming peptide is implicated in the potent cytolytic activity of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica. Using NH2-terminal sequence information of this peptide, the corresponding cDNA was isolated. The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence revealed a putativ ...
The analysis and interpretation of perturbative modulated electron cyclotron heating (MECH) discharges for power deposition localization using different diagnostics, such as electron cyclotron emission (ECE) and soft x-ray (SXR) measurements, are presented ...
CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) family members are transcription factors involved in important physiological processes, such as cellular proliferation and differentiation, regulation of energy homeostasis, inflammation, and hematopoiesis. Transcript ...
We report the nucleotide sequence and genome organization of the human papillomavirus type 42. HPV42 DNA was isolated from vulvar papillomas. It has been detected in benign forms of proliferative lesions only. The genome of HPV42 is 7917 bp long and shows ...
Over the past few years, several reports have been published about the characterization of Plasmodium genes that are thought, on the basis of sequence homology with eukaryotic genes of known function, to be involved in the regulation of growth and differen ...
The molecular organization of the malT region of the Escherichia coli K-12 chromosome has been elucidated by nucleotide sequence studies. A single open reading frame of 901 codons comprises the malT gene which is separated by a repetitive extragenic palind ...
