Copy Number Variation in the Horse Genome
We constructed a 400K WG tiling oligoarray for the horse and applied it for the discovery of copy number variations (CNVs) in 38 normal horses of 16 diverse breeds, and the Przewalski horse. Probes on the array represented 18,763 autosomal and X-linked genes, and intergenic, sub-telomeric and chrY sequences. We identified 258 CNV regions (CNVRs) across all autosomes, chrX and chrUn, but not in ...
متن کاملRegional differences in the Na+ reabsorption of sweat glands.
Sweat glands with a higher capacity for both sweat secretion and sodium reabsorption would contribute more effectively to thermoregulation, with less tendency to cause sodium depletion. The rate at which sweat glands reabsorb sodium and chloride does not increase proportionally as the rate of sweating increases, so that [Na+] and [Cl–] in sweat sampled on the skin surface increase with sweating...
متن کاملLatherin: A Surfactant Protein of Horse Sweat and Saliva
Horses are unusual in producing protein-rich sweat for thermoregulation, a major component of which is latherin, a highly surface-active, non-glycosylated protein. The amino acid sequence of latherin, determined from cDNA analysis, is highly conserved across four geographically dispersed equid species (horse, zebra, onager, ass), and is similar to a family of proteins only found previously in t...
متن کاملVariation in the Functional Power of Human Sweat Glands
A method has been worked out for the measurement of the volume of sweat produced by individual glands. A special paper, impregnated with iodine, absorbs water in a uniform way and shows the area of wetting by a sharply defined blue dot. Indirect calibrations showed that 1 cm.(3) of water would form a spot of 700 cm.(2) area, and that this relation of volume to area was a constant one over a wid...
متن کاملAutophagy Shows Its Animal Side
Most autophagy genes have been discovered in the single-celled yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and little is known about autophagy genes that are specific to multicellular animals. In this issue, Tian et al. (2010) now identify four new autophagy genes: one specific to the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and three conserved from worms to mammals.
