Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel type of histamine receptor preferentially expressed in leukocytes.

Detection, Cloning, Molecular Characterization and Phylogenic Analyses of a New Primate T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type I in Olive Baboon

Molecular cloning and characterization of CRLM-2, a novel type I cytokine receptor preferentially expressed in hematopoietic cells.

A murine expressed sequence tag (EST) showing homology with erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) was identified in the EST database. Cloning of the full-length cDNA revealed a 359 amino acid novel type I cytokine receptor, designated cytokine receptor like molecule-2 (CRLM-2). While CRLM-2 lacks typical WSXWS motif, it has a significant homology with EPOR, IL-2 receptor beta and gamma, and IL-9 recep...

P-84: Characterization of Androgen Receptor Structure and Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of the Rice Field Eel

Background: Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role in prostate cancer and male sexual differentiation.Mechanisms by which AR acts and regulations of AR nucleocytoplasmic shuttling are not understood well. Materials and Methods: Degenerate PCR and RACE Cloning of AR Gene; Phylogenetic Analysis and Molecular Modeling;Real-time Fluorescent Quantitative RT-PCR; Northern Blot Hybridization;In ...

Cloning, Expression and Characterization of Recombinant Exotoxin A-Flagellin Fusion Protein as a New Vaccine Candidate against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections

Background: Infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in patients who suffer from impaired immune responses and chronic diseases such as cystic fibrosis. At present, aggressive antibiotic therapy is the only choice for management of P. aeruginosa infections, but emergence of highly resistant strains necessitated the development of novel alt...

Cloning and molecular characterization of TaERF6, a gene encoding a bread wheat ethylene response factor

Ethylene response factor proteins are important for regulating gene expression under different stresses. Different isoforms for ERF have previously isolated from bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and related genera and called from TaERF1 to TaERF5. We isolated, cloned and molecular characterized a novel one based on TdERF1, an isoform in durum wheat (Tri...
