Investigation of transcriptional partners and genes downstream of Foxn1

The thymus is the second fundamental organ of the immune system after the bone marrow; it is the essential for T cell maturation and repertoire selection. The function of the thymus critically depends on the thymic epithelium, which is structured in two di ...

Recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (rAAV2/6)-mediated gene transfer to nociceptive neurons through different routes of delivery

Patrick Aebischer, Christopher Towne

BACKGROUND: Gene transfer to nociceptive neurons of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) is a promising approach to dissect mechanisms of pain in rodents and is a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of persistent pain disorders such as neuropathic pa ...

DNA delivery by microinjection for the generation of recombinant mammalian cell lines

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Madiha Derouazi, Sébastien Chenuet

Gene transfer methods for producing recombinant cell lines are often not very efficient. One reason is that the recombinant DNA is delivered into the cell cytoplasm and only a small fraction reaches the nucleus. This chapter describes a method for microinj ...

Structured Superposition for Backhaul Constrained Cellular Uplink

Michael Christoph Gastpar

In this paper, we demonstrate the advantage of the inherent algebraic structure of lattice codes, for the uplink channel of a cellular deployment. The out-of-cell interference is assumed to be symmetric, as in Wyner's model. We employ a new relaying techni ...

Selecting control genes for RT-QPCR using public microarray data

Darlene Goldstein, Mauro Delorenzi, Vlad Popovici

Background: Gene expression analysis has emerged as a major biological research area, with real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-QPCR) being one of the most accurate and widely used techniques for expression profiling of selected genes. In o ...

Characterization and Targeting of Forkhead Box K2 (FOXK2)

Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factors are evolutionarily conserved and found in organisms as diverse as yeast and humans. They regulate a broad spectrum of events during embryonic and post natal development, including cell cycle regulation, survival, ...

Crystal structure of I-DmoI in complex with its target DNA provides new insights into meganuclease engineering

Homing endonucleases, also known as meganucleases, are sequence-specific enzymes with large DNA recognition sites. These enzymes can be used to induce efficient homologous gene targeting in cells and plants, opening perspectives for genome engineering with ...

Dependence of reversibility and progression of mouse neuronopathic Gaucher disease on acid beta-glucosidase residual activity levels

Genetic and chemically induced neuronopathic mouse models of Gaucher disease were developed to facilitate understanding of the reversibility and/or progression of CNS involvement. The lethality of the skin permeability barrier defect of the complete gene k ...

Maturation modulates caspase-1-independent responses of dendritic cells to Anthrax lethal toxin

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

Anthrax lethal toxin (LT) contributes to the immune evasion strategy of Bacillus anthracis by impairing the function of cells of the immune system, such as macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). Macrophages from certain inbred mice strains undergo rapid de ...

Characterization of active site structure in CYP121: A cytochrome P450 essential for viability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv

Stewart Cole

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) cytochrome P450 gene CYP121 is shown to be essential for viability of the bacterium in vitro by gene knock-out with complementation. Production of CYP121 protein in Mtb cells is demonstrated. Minimum inhibitory concentratio ...
