Integrative genetic element that reverses the usual target gene orientation.

چکیده

A genetic element integrating site specifically into a prokaryotic gene usually carries a copy of the 3' portion of that gene that restores the active gene even as the original is disrupted. A cryptic element in Mesorhizobium loti instead carries a copy of the 5' end of the tRNA gene into which it integrated. This has implications for the evolution of new integrase-site combinations.

Barriers to liposomal gene delivery: from application site to the target

AbstractGene therapy is a therapeutic approach to deliver genetic material into cells to alter their function in entire organism. One promising form of gene delivery system (DDS) is liposomes. The success of liposome-mediated gene delivery is a multifactorial issue and well-designed liposomal systems might lead to optimized gene transfection particularly in vivo. Liposomal gene delivery systems...

A new large-DNA-fragment delivery system based on integrase activity from an integrative and conjugative element.

During the past few decades, numerous plasmid vectors have been developed for cloning, gene expression analysis, and genetic engineering. Cloning procedures typically rely on PCR amplification, DNA fragment restriction digestion, recovery, and ligation, but increasingly, procedures are being developed to assemble large synthetic DNAs. In this study, we developed a new gene delivery system using...

WZW orientifolds and finite group cohomology

The simplest orientifolds of the WZW models are obtained by gauging a Z2 symmetry group generated by a combined involution of the target Lie group G and of the worldsheet. The action of the involution on the target is by a twisted inversion g 7→ (ζg)−1, where ζ is an element of the center of G. It reverses the sign of the KalbRamond torsion field H given by a bi-invariant closed 3-form on G. Th...

Genetic polymorphisms in the promoter region of catalase gene, creates new potential PAX-6 and STAT4 response elements

Catalase (CAT, OMIM: 115500) is an endogenous antioxidant enzyme and genetic variations in the regulatory regions of the CAT gene may alter the CAT enzyme activity and subsequently may alter the risk of oxidative stress related disease. In this study, potential influence(s) of the A-21T (rs7943316) and C-262T (rs1001179) genetic polymorphisms in the CAT promoter region, using the ALGGEN-PROMO.v...
