Abstract

The dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein 1 (DMP1) gene has been mapped to human chromosome 4q21 and shown to exhibit no recombination with the autosomal dominant disorder of dentin formation, dentinogenesis imperfecta type II. In the current study, sequencing of DMP1 cDNA and genomic clones has indicated that the human gene contains an open reading frame of 1539 bp, which predicts a highly acidic, serine-rich protein of 513 amino acids. Comparison of the human DMP1-coding sequence with that of the rat, mouse, and cow indicated that the predicted protein contains a conserved hydrophobic signal peptide sequence and an Arg-Gly-Asp cell attachment sequence. The gene is encoded by six exons, the splicing phase of which is type 0, the first exon containing solely 5' untranslated sequence. Sequencing of each of the coding exons in individuals affected by dentinogenesis imperfecta type II failed to reveal any disease-specific mutations, suggesting that mutations in DMP1 are not causative of this condition at least in the two families examined in this study.

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.
