A Positive Selection for Nucleoside Kinases in E. coli
Engineering heterologous nucleoside kinases inside E. coli is a difficult process due to the integral role nucleosides play in cell division and transcription. Nucleoside analogs are used in many kinase screens that depend on cellular metabolization of the analogs. However, metabolic activation of these analogs can be toxic through disruptions of DNA replication and transcription because of the...
متن کاملGenes under positive selection in Escherichia coli.
We used a comparative genomics approach to identify genes that are under positive selection in six strains of Escherichia coli and Shigella flexneri, including five strains that are human pathogens. We find that positive selection targets a wide range of different functions in the E. coli genome, including cell surface proteins such as beta barrel porins, presumably because of the involvement o...

انتخاب نامساعد یکی از مشکلات اساسی در صنعت بیمه است. که ابتدا در سال 1960، توسط روتشیلد واستیگلیتز مورد بحث ومطالعه قرار گرفت ازآن موقع تاکنون بسیاری از پژوهشگران مدل های مختلفی را برای تجزیه و تحلیل تقاضا برای صنعت بیمه عمر که تماما ناشی از عدم قطعیت در این صنعت میباشد انجام داده اند .وهدف از آن پیدا کردن شرایطی است که تحت آن شرایط انتخاب یا کنار گذاشتن یک بیمه گزار به نفع و یا زیان شرکت بیمه ...
15 صفحه اولLong-range transcriptional interference in E. coli used to construct a dual positive selection system for genetic switches
We have investigated transcriptional interference between convergent genes in E. coli and demonstrate substantial interference for inter-promoter distances of as far as 3 kb. Interference can be elicited by both strong σ(70) dependent and T7 promoters. In the presented design, a strong promoter driving gene expression of a 'forward' gene interferes with the expression of a 'reverse' gene by a w...
متن کاملNucleoside kinases, rate-limiting step of nucleoside analogues activation
Nucleoside analogues have proven to be a highly successful class of anti-cancer and anti-viral drugs. The therapeutic efficacy of nucleoside analogues is dependent of their intracellular phosphorylation. Two cellular nucleoside kinases, deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and UMP-CMP kinase (CMK) are critical for phosphorylation of cytidine analogues. These kinases provide two first steps of activation ...
