Development of Nourseothricin N-acetyl transferase (NAT) as a selection marker for mammalian cells is described. Mammalian cells are acutely susceptible to Nourseothricin, similar to the widely used drug Puromycin, and NAT allows for quick and robust selection of transfected/transduced cells in the presence of Nourseothricin. NAT is compatible with other selection markers puromycin, hygromycin,...
The past few years have seen the development of powerful statistical methods for detecting adaptive molecular evolution. These methods compare synonymous and nonsynonymous substitution rates in protein-coding genes, and regard a nonsynonymous rate elevated above the synonymous rate as evidence for darwinian selection. Numerous cases of molecular adaptation are being identified in various system...
Thymidine kinase (TK)-mediated suicide gene therapy has been considered for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. However, despite a bystander effect, the proportion of transduced tumor cells has proven too low to result in efficacy. We propose the use of a drug-selectable marker (MDR1) to enrich TK-expressing cells using chemotherapy. This enrichment or positive selection phase may increase the ...
Selection mapping applies the population genetics theory of hitchhiking to the localization of genomic regions containing genes under selection. This approach predicts that neutral loci linked to genes under positive selection will have reduced diversity due to their shared history with a selected locus, and thus, genome scans of diversity levels can be used to identify regions containing selec...
Thymic positive and negative selections govern the development of a self-MHC-reactive, yet self-tolerant, T cell repertoire. Whether these processes occur independently or sequentially remains controversial. To investigate these issues, we have employed tetrameric peptide-MHC complexes to fluorescently label and monitor polyclonal populations of thymocytes that are specific for moth cytochrome ...
Theoretical models predict that selection on reaction norms should depend on the relative frequency of environmental states experienced by a population. We report a laboratory experimental test of this prediction for thermal performance curves of larval growth rate in Pieris rapae in relation to their thermal environment. We measured short-term relative growth rate (RGR) for each individual at ...
MOTIVATION An important step in analyzing expression profiles from microarray data is to identify genes that can discriminate between distinct classes of samples. Many statistical approaches for assigning significance values to genes have been developed. The Comparative Marker Selection suite consists of three modules that allow users to apply and compare different methods of computing signific...
The diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) has been particularly difficult, because STSs are a group of highly heterogeneous tumors in terms of histopathology, histological grade, and primary site. Recent advances in genome technologies have provided an excellent opportunity to determine the complete biological characteristics of neoplastic tissues, resulting in improved diagnos...
To examine the role of NF-kB in T cell development, we analyzed thymocyte ontogeny in transgenic (mutant I-kBa (mI-kBa)) mice that express a superinhibitory form of the NF-kB inhibitory protein, I-kBa (I-kBaA32/36), under the control of the T cell-specific CD2 promoter and enhancer. Thymi from mI-kBa mice contained increased numbers of double-positive (DP) and decreased numbers of both CD4 and ...
