Authors: Y.-L. Zhang, D.-W. Li, Z.-H. Gong, J.-E. Wang, Y.-X. Yin and J.-J. Ji
Based on culture isolation and morphological observation blight-infected pepper plants in Shaanxi Province, China, we identified the pathogen causing pepper phytophthora blight as Phytophthora capsici. Varieties that differed in resistance (CM334, PBC602, and B27) were inoculated with this pathogen. The root activity of resistant CM334 variety was the hig.. Read More»

Potential role of Atp5g3 in epigenetic regulation of alcohol preference or obesity from a mouse genomic perspective
Authors: Y. Huang, L. Wang, B. Bennett, R.W. Williams, Y.J. Wang, W.K. Gu and Y. Jiao
The mitochondrial ATP synthase, subunit c, isoform 3 gene (Atp5g3) encodes subunit 9, the subunit of the multisubunit enzyme that catalyzes ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. According to the Ensembl database, Atp5g3 in mice is located on chromosome 2 between 73746504 and 73749383 bp, within the genomic regions of two sets of .. Read More»

Study of the obp5 gene in Apis mellifera ligustica and Apis cerana cerana
Authors: H.X. Zhao, X.N. Zeng, Q. Liang, X.F. Zhang, W.Z. Huang, H.S. Chenand Y.X. Luo
Apis mellifera ligustica and A. cerana cerana exhibit differences in olfactory sensitivity to odors from nectariferous plants and diseased broods. It is presumed that the differences in odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) between these 2 species contribute to their olfactory sensitivity. We compared the sequences, temporal expression pattern, and binding prop.. Read More»

Molecular characterization of the myosatin gene and the effect of fasting on its expression in Chinese perch (Siniperca chuatsi)
Authors: L. Liu, Y.L. Li, S.D. Xu, K.Z. Wang, P. Wu, W.Y. Chu and X.Q. Wang
Myostatin (MSTN) is an important member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily and is a muscle growth inhibitor. In the present study, we cloned the Chinese perch MSTN cDNA sequence and analyzed its expression patterns under various conditions. The MSTN full cDNA sequence was 3347 bp long, including ..

Branches of the NF-�ºB signaling pathway regulate proliferation of oval cells in rat liver regeneration
Authors: W.M. Zhao, Y.L. Qin, Z.P. Niu, C.F. Chang, J. Yang, M.H. Li, Y. Zhou and C.S. Xu1,
The NF-kB (nuclear factor kB) pathway is involved in the proliferation of many cell types. To explore the mechanism of the NF-kB signaling pathway underlying the oval cell proliferation during rat liver regeneration, the Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array was used to detect expression changes of NF-kB signaling pathway-related genes in ..

Molecular cloning and gene expression analysis of cystatin C-like proteins in spinyhead croaker Collichthys lucidus
Authors: W. Song, K.J. Jiang, F.Y. Zhang, M. Zhao and L.B. Ma
Cystatins are natural tight-binding reversible inhibitors of cysteine proteases. In this study, a cDNA library was constructed from Collichthys lucidus using the SMART technique. A complete cDNA sequence with high identity to the conserved sequence of the cystatin C gene was cloned from the library using EST analysis and rapid.. Read More»

Development and characterization of Rift Valley fever virus-like particles
Authors: Y.T. Li, C.L. Wang, X.X. Zheng, H.L. Wang, Y.K. Zhao, W.W. Gai, H.L. Jin, Y.W. Gao, N. Li, S.T. Yang and X.Z. Xia
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is an acute, febrile zoonotic disease that is caused by the RVF virus (RVFV) and spread by arthropod vectors. RVF is currently prevalent in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, and causes substantial economic losses. Furthermore, this disease poses a serious threat to animal and human health in regions wor..

Partial least squares-based gene expression analysis in preeclampsia
Authors: F. Jiang, Y. Yang, J. Li, W. Li, Y. Luo, Y. Li, H. Zhao, X. Wang, G. Yin and G. Wu
Preeclampsia is major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Currently, the etiology of preeclampsia is unclear. In this study, we investigated differences in gene expression between preeclampsia patients and controls using partial least squaresbased analysis, which is more suitable than routine analysis. Expression profile data were downloa.. Read More»

Authors: Y.Q. Liu, D.C. Tao, S.Y. Liao, Y. Yang, Y.X. Ma and S.Z. Zhang
Multiple genes are restrictively expressed in mammalian testicular tissues, and they play important roles in the complex process of spermatogenesis. Investigation of these genes and their expression regulation mechanisms is valuable to elucidate the molecular process of spermatogenesis. In this study, we identified a novel human gene, ring finger protein .. Read More»
