Background: Proteins are the primary regulatory agents of transcription even though mRNA expression data alone, from systems like DNA microarrays, are widely used. In addition, the regulation process in genetic systems is inherently non-linear in nature, a ...
Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a powerful technique that is now commonly used in many research and clinical laboratories. Although it allows precise quantification of specific DNA sequences, it is often not used at its full potential. A number of data collecti ...
For better understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying clinical observations, it is interesting to determine which genes and clinical traits are interrelated. In the last few years a consistent amount of research in genomics has been done concerning cor ...
Quantitative reverse transcriptase real-time PCR (QRT-PCR) is a robust method to quantitate RNA abundance. The procedure is highly sensitive and reproducible as long as the initial RNA is intact. However, breaks in the RNA due to chemical or enzymatic clea ...
The zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo toxicity test (DarT) is under consideration as an alternative to the acute fish toxicity test. Microscopically visible developmental disorders or death are the endpoints used to report on toxicity in DarT. These endpoints ...
Ants and other social insects forming large societies are generally characterized by marked reproductive division of labour. Queens largely monopolize reproduction whereas workers have little reproductive potential. In addition, some social insect species ...
Ants display a range of fascinating behaviors, a remarkable level of intra-species phenotypic plasticity and many other interesting characteristics. Here we present a new tool to study the molecular mechanisms underlying these traits: a tentatively annotat ...
A new 9.9 kb catabolic transposon, Tn-Dha1, containing the gene responsible for tetrachloroethene (PCE) reductive dechlorination activity, was isolated from Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain TCE1. Two fully identical copies of the insertion sequence ISDh ...
Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) is considered one of the most important factors influencing lymphatic endothelial cell biology. The goal of this work was to characterize the gene expression response by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) to VE ...
Neocortical neurones can be classified according to several independent criteria: morphological, physiological, and molecular expression (neuropeptides (NPs) and/or calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs)). While it has been suggested that particular NPs and CaBP ...
