Abstract

We present DNA sequence data from a 35,364 bp region on the left arm of chromosome VII of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This region contains 19 open reading frames (ORFs). ORF G1821 corresponds to the RAD54 gene involved in repair and recombination (Emery et al., 1991). G1810 is identical to the ACE1 gene sequenced by Szczypka and Thiele (1989), required for copper-inducible transcription of the CUP1 gene. The first 693 bp on the minus strand represent part of the 3' non-coding region from the P-type ATPase gene PMR1, previously sequenced by Rudolph et al. (1989), which is identical to the SSC1 gene (Smith et al., 1988). G1845 corresponds to the RCK1 protein kinase gene from S. cerevisiae (Dahlkvist and Sunnerhagen, 1994). G1861 is almost identical to the alpha-mannosidase gene AMS1 reported by Yoshihisa and Anraku (1989) and G1864 has 100% identity with the yeast CAL1 gene (Ohya et al., 1989)/CDC43 gene (Johnson et al., 1990) which is involved in control of cell polarity. This region also contains a gene specifying a Leu-tRNA precursor and a remnant of a tau element. ORF G1880 shows some similarity to the S. cerevisiae SNF2, STH1 and NPS1 genes and to the human ERCC1 gene. A 93 bp region shows similarity to yeast EST sequenced by ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
