چکیده

At least eight leukocyte interferon genes (IFL) and the single fibroblast interferon gene (IFF) have been located on chromosome 9 in humans. In somatic cell hybrids of human and mouse cells containing a normal complement of mouse parental cell chromosomes but reduced numbers of human chromosomes, the human leukocyte and fibroblast interferon DNA sequences were present only when human chromosome 9 was also present.

نقش تعادل میان KIRهای مهاری و فعال کنندگی در تعیین استعداد ابتلا به اسپوندیلیت انکیلوزان

Background : Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) represents a progressive and debilitating disease that affects approximately 0.9% worldwide. So far the precise mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of AS is still unclear. Linkage between HLA-B27 and AS remains the strongest association between a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecule and disease. Despite intensive research, the ...

Molecular structure of human fibroblast and leukocyte interferons: probe by lectin and hydrophobic chromatography.

Structural differences between human leukocyte virus-induced interferon and human fibroblast polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (rIn-rCn)-induced interferon have been noted in previous studies. This study reports the behavior of human leukocyte and fibroblast interferon, induced by virus and by rIn-rCn, in several lectin and hydrophobic chromatographic systems. Differences in both glycosylation an...

The absence of introns within a human fibroblast interferon gene.

Experiments in which immobilised restriction fragments of genomic DNA were hybridised with a cloned human fibroblast interferon cDNA indicate that the homologous chromosomal genes exist in only one basic arrangement. This is in marked contrast to recent studies by Nagata et al. (1) showing that there are at least eight gene arrangements for human leukocyte interferon. Having isolated a chromoso...

The homeobox genes are known to play a crucial role in controlling the development of multicellular organisms. The majority of these genes have been determined to express regulatory proteins act as a regulatory protein. These trans-acting factors regulate the expression of proteins that are necessary during the developmental processes throughout the body. TGIFLX/Y is a homeobox gene and it cont...

I-39: Exploring New Frontiers in Human Y Chromosome Proteome Project

The major goal of the Chromosome-Centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP) is to systematically map the entire human proteome with the intent to enhance our understanding of human biology at the cellular level. However, this goal may be hindered by the lack of quality observations of given proteins due to absence of expression in a given tissue, very low abundance, and expression only in rare samp...
