Abstract Background and Aims: Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is the causative agent of avian infectious bronchitis, which is characterized by respiratory, reproductive, and renal signs. IBV is a highly variable virus with a large number of genotypes. S1 gene sequencing has been used for molecular epidemiological studies and genotypic characterization of IBV. To better und...

Background and Aims: Avian infectious bronchitis (IB) has prevalent in the most chicken farms during recent years, in spite of the IB vaccination program which has been widely performed in Iran. To better understand the molecular epidemiology of IBV in Iran, the full length sequences of S1 gene of Iranian QX IBVs were determined and phylogenetic analysis was done using some sequences of IBV. M...

To facilitate the study of the regulation of the rpsA gene, a translational fusion between the rpsA gene and the lacZ gene was constructed. Synthesis of the fusion protein was repressed about 10-fold when rpsA was supplied in trans on a multicopy plasmid. This repression is similar to the post-transcriptional regulation previously found for the wild type rpsA gene. Addition of purified protein ...

There were errors in Table 1 and S1 (in the supplementary material). Several cultivars specified with incorrect gene statuses. The original article has been corrected (incl.

The hepatitis B virus envelope gene encodes three transmembrane proteins in frame; S, the product of S gene; M, the product of M (pre-S2 + S) gene; and L, the product of L (pre-S1 + pre-S2 + S) gene. Unlike the S and M proteins, attempts to efficiently synthesize L proteins and assemble them into L protein particles in various eukaryotic cells have been unsuccessful, probably because of the pre...

The sequences complementary to the nascent RNA molecules isolated from transcription complexes of HeLa cell mtDNA have been mapped on the H and L strands of mtDNA by the S1 protection technique. The distribution of these sequences among different Hpa II restriction fragments was found to reflect the position of these fragments in the Hpa II map of mtDNA. Thus, the S1-resistant hybrids formed wi...

We have examined the S1 nuclease sensitivity in the promoter of both the chicken and mouse alpha 2(I) collagen genes. When these DNAs are introduced into supercoiled plasmids and digested with S1 nuclease, a discrete region containing one or more cleavages is found in each promoter. These S1 cleavage sites were mapped by the distance of the S1 site from known restriction enzyme cleavage sites. ...

The S1 element is a plant short interspersed element (SINE) that was first described and studied in Brassica napus. In this work, we investigated the distribution and the molecular phylogeny of the S1 element within the Cruciferae (= Brassicaceae). S1 elements were found to be widely distributed within the Cruciferae, especially in species of the tribe Brassiceae. The molecular phylogeny of S1 ...
