Progesterone secretion by isolated small and large ovine luteal cells treated with excess cholesterol substrate in the form of hydroxylated cholesterol molecules that measure P450scc activity directly also indicate that P450scc was not limiting in this species [42, 43]. Furthermore, in the rat, ...
Financial Disclosure: Drs Lord and Risi receive royalties from the publication of the Autism Diagnostic Interview–Revised and Pre-Linguistic Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule/Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, though at the time of this study the instruments were distributed free of charge. Fundi...
f, Immunofluorescence (lower left panel), RIP and western blot (lower right panel) assays showing the localization (arrowheads) and interaction of NONO with circ-hnRNPU or c-Myc protein in AGS cells transfected with Flag-tagged wild-type (WT) or NLS-mutant (mNLS) form of NONO as indicated...
Chloroplasts play a crucial role in sustaining life on earth. The availability of over 800 sequenced chloroplast genomes from a variety of land plants has enhanced our understanding of chloroplast biology, intracellular gene transfer, conservation, diversity, and the genetic basis by which chloroplast t...
chloroplast genomes, as illustrated in Fig.1b. The percentage of each form within the cell varies in different reports [47,48]. Fig. 1 Map of the soybean (Glycine max) chloroplast genome. This genome was used to engineer biotic stress tolerance against insects and herbicides. The quadri...
Scab, caused by the biotrophic fungus Venturia inaequalis, is the most economically important disease of apples worldwide. During infection, V. inaequalis occupies the subcuticular environment, where it secretes virulence factors, termed effectors, to pr
The LiPan line was then crossed with Tg(fli1:EGFP)y1 and vascular development in the liver was traced in vivo. Liver vasculogenesis started at 55–58 hpf when ECs first surrounded hepatocytes from the liver bud surface and then invaded the liver to form sinusoids and later the vascular ...
Each participant was asked to complete a questionnaire, which was administered online using REDCap or in a paper form at a subsequent prenatal clinical visit. The questionnaire included dietary and drinking water intake, occupation, and demographic characteristics. The primary variables were: race/eth...
The promoters of genes in these clusters exhibited different patterns and prevalence of transcription factor binding sites for p53, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), activator protein (AP)-1, signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)3 and early growth response (EGR)1, as compared with ...
ASAP is a newly characterized microtubule-associated protein (MAP) essential for proper cell-cycling. We have previously shown that expression deregulation of human ASAP results in profound defects in mitotic spindle formation and mitotic progression lea
