Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function
(2016-01)
Reduced glomerular filtration rate defines chronic kidney disease and is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular ...
Development of a RAD-Seq Based DNA Polymorphism Identification Software, AgroMarker Finder, and Its Application in Rice Marker-Assisted Breeding
(2016-01)
Abstract
Rapid and accurate genome-wide marker detection is essential to the marker-assisted breeding and functional genomics studies. In this work, we developed an integrated software, AgroMarker Finder (AMF: ...
A cotton miRNA is involved in regulation of plant response to salt stress
(2016-01)
The present study functionally identified a new microRNA (microRNA ovual line 5, miRNVL5) with its target gene GhCHR from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). The sequence of miRNVL5 precursor is 104 nt long, with a well developed ...
Analysis of the Maize dicer-like1 Mutant, fuzzy tassel, Implicates MicroRNAs in Anther Maturation and Dehiscence
(2016-01-08)
Sexual reproduction in plants requires development of haploid gametophytes from somatic tissues. Pollen is the male gametophyte and develops within the stamen; defects in the somatic tissues of the stamen and in the male ...
INTERACTION BETWEEN HTLV-1 BASIC LEUCINE ZIPPER FACTOR (HBZ) AND HOST CELL PROTEINS PROMOTES CELLULAR TRANSFORMATION
(2016-04-26)
Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) is a complex retrovirus which preferentially infects CD4+ T-cells. Endemic to Japan, regions of South America, Africa, and the Caribbean, HTLV-1 is transmitted through breastfeeding, ...
