Mapping and Expression Analysis of a Fusarium Head Blight Resistance Gene Candidate Pleiotropic Drug Resistance 5 (PDR5) in Wheat

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum is a serious disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), through which grain quality losses are induced by fungal trichotecene mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON). A class of plasma membrane localized ABC transporter proteins related to the yeast PDR5 (pleiotropic drug resistance5) efflux pump seems to be responsible for partial resista...

Genomic mapping of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in the human brain

Methylation at the 5-position of cytosine is a well-studied epigenetic pathway. In addition to 5-methylcytosine (5mC), substantial amounts of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) also referred to as the sixth DNA base have been detected in certain tissues, most notably the brain. However, the genomic distribution of this cytosine modification is unknown. Here, we have used an immunoprecipitation tech...

Chromosomal mapping of the tankyrase gene in human and mouse.

Functional gene description: Tankyrase (TNKS) is a ovel gene with homology to both ankyrins and the cataytic domain of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) that as recently cloned using a yeast two-hybrid screen with he telomere-specific DNA binding protein TRF1 (1). ankyrase protein is located at telomeres, centrosomes, nd nuclear pore complexes (1; S. Smith and T. de Lange, n preparation). In v...
