Genetic Variation in ANGPTL4 Provides Insights into Protein Processing and Function*S⃞
Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a secreted protein that modulates the disposition of circulating triglycerides (TG) by inhibiting lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Here we examine the steps involved in the synthesis and post-translational processing of ANGPTL4, and the effects of a naturally occurring sequence variant (E40K) that is associated with lower plasma TG levels in humans. Expression ...
متن کاملInsights into recombination from population genetic variation.
Patterns of genetic variation in natural populations are shaped by, and hence carry valuable information about, the underlying recombination process. In the past five years, the increasing availability of large-scale population genetic data on dense sets of markers, coupled with advances in statistical methods for extracting information from these data, have led to several important advances in...
متن کاملSerotonin Receptors: Genetic insights into serotonin function
Targeted disruption of the genes for the 5-HT1B and 5-HT2C serotonin receptors and monoamine oxidase A have confirmed pharmacological experiments and revealed unexpected behavioral roles for serotonin.
متن کاملVariation in breeding phenology provides insights into drivers of long-term population change in harbour seals.
Phenological trends provide important indicators of environmental change and population dynamics. However, the use of untested population-level measures can lead to incorrect conclusions about phenological trends, particularly when changes in population structure or density are ignored. We used individual-based estimates of birth date and lactation duration of harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) to ...
متن کاملPan-Genomic Analysis Provides Insights into the Genomic Variation and Evolution of Salmonella Paratyphi A
Salmonella Paratyphi A (S. Paratyphi A) is a highly adapted, human-specific pathogen that causes paratyphoid fever. Cases of paratyphoid fever have recently been increasing, and the disease is becoming a major public health concern, especially in Eastern and Southern Asia. To investigate the genomic variation and evolution of S. Paratyphi A, a pan-genomic analysis was performed on five newly se...
