branes from various tissues (S); binding can be altered or destroyed by treating cells with free or agarose-bound enzymes (5); the receptors are not detectable in intracellular membranes (S); adenylate cyclase activity in isolated membranes can be perturbed directly by physiological concentrations of insulin (6); and insulin receptors have now been extracted and purified from cell membranes (7)...
متن کاملComparative Genomic Analyses of the Human NPHP1 Locus Reveal Complex Genomic Architecture and Its Regional Evolution in Primates
Many loci in the human genome harbor complex genomic structures that can result in susceptibility to genomic rearrangements leading to various genomic disorders. Nephronophthisis 1 (NPHP1, MIM# 256100) is an autosomal recessive disorder that can be caused by defects of NPHP1; the gene maps within the human 2q13 region where low copy repeats (LCRs) are abundant. Loss of function of NPHP1 is resp...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Genomic Molecular Clocks in Primates
Using data from primates, we show that molecular clocks in sites that have been part of a CpG dinucleotide in recent past (CpG sites) and non-CpG sites are of markedly different nature, reflecting differences in their molecular origins. Notably, single nucleotide substitutions at non-CpG sites show clear generation-time dependency, indicating that most of these substitutions occur by errors dur...
متن کاملFrontal Cortex Evolution in Primates
The frontal cortex can be defined as the neocortex anterior to the motor somatosensory–cortex border. This is a large region in primates, containing areas involved directly or indirectly in the control of almost every behavior. It has long been thought that the frontal cortex played an important role in primate evolution. Modern evidence supports this view. Indeed, given the diversity of functi...
متن کاملEvolution of microRNA in primates
MicroRNA play an important role in post-transcriptional regulation of most transcripts in the human genome, but their evolution across the primate lineage is largely uncharacterized. A particular miRNA can have one to thousands of messenger RNA targets, establishing the potential for a small change in sequence or overall miRNA structure to have profound phenotypic effects. However, the majority...
