Molecular Approaches to Developmental Biology
mechanisms of DNA repair, replication, and recombination (the "three R's") in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The book opens with a 13-page summary of the conference written by Nicholas Cozzarelli. Cozzarelli's expertise is evident as he discusses many of the exciting observations and comments upon their significance and possible implications. His summary is especially useful since it helps co...
متن کاملScrapie: uncertainties, biology and molecular approaches.
The study of the biology of scrapie in sheep is irretrievably associated with the genetics of the PrP gene in sheep. Control of susceptibility and resistance is so closely linked to certain alleles of the sheep PrP gene that no review on scrapie can avoid PrP genetics. Before the importance of PrP protein was discovered and before the influence of the gene itself on disease incidence was unders...
متن کاملEmerging molecular approaches in stem cell biology.
Stem cells are characterized by their ability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple adult cell types. Although substantial progress has been made over the last decade in understanding stem cell biology, recent technological advances in molecular and systems biology may hold the key to unraveling the mystery behind stem cell self-renewal and plasticity. The most notable of these advances...
متن کاملMolecular biology approaches in bioadhesion research
The use of molecular biology tools in the field of bioadhesion is still in its infancy. For new research groups who are considering taking a molecular approach, the techniques presented here are essential to unravelling the sequence of a gene, its expression and its biological function. Here we provide an outline for addressing adhesion-related genes in diverse organisms. We show how to gradual...
متن کاملText-mining approaches in molecular biology and biomedicine.
Biomedical articles provide functional descriptions of bioentities such as chemical compounds and proteins. To extract relevant information using automatic techniques, text-mining and information-extraction approaches have been developed. These technologies have a key role in integrating biomedical information through analysis of scientific literature. In this article, important applications su...
