sheeppox virus (spv) and goatpox virus (gpv) belong to the capripoxvirus genus of poxviridae family. sheeppox and goatpox along with contagious ecthyma (ce) are endemic diseases in iran. capripox laboratory conformation based on virological and serological techniques are time consuming, laborious and most of them of low specificity, because of close antigenic relationship between capripoxvirus ...

The synthesis of a Mr 32,000 protein (p32) is enhanced as early as 2 h after the addition of tumor-promoting phorbol esters to BALB/c 3T3 cells. Among various compounds tested thus far, methyl methanesulfonate, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, L-ascorbic acid, sodium deoxycholate, p-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone, p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone, 3,3'-diaminobenzidine, and ...

Functional half-life measurements of the bacteriophage T4 gene 32 messenger RNA indicate that this mRNA is extremely stable. Regulation of gene 32 expression at the transcriptional level cannot account for the rapidity with which P32 synthesis can be repressed. Furthermore, derepression of P32 synthesis occurs in the presence of rifampicin, a drug which inhibits transcriptional initiation. In a...

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) immediate-early gene IE63 (ICP27), the only HSV-1 regulatory gene with a homologue in every mammalian and avian herpesvirus sequenced so far, is a multifunctional protein which regulates transcriptional and posttranscriptional processes. One of its posttranscriptional effects is the inhibition of splicing of viral and cellular transcripts. We previously i...

Mongolia had no reported cases of capripoxvirus disease from 1977 until an outbreak of sheeppox in 2006-2007 and then goatpox in 2008. The two outbreaks occurred in geographically distant areas of Mongolia and, most strikingly, were highly species-specific. The 2006-2007 sheeppox outbreak affected no goats and the 2008 goatpox outbreak affected no sheep despite communal herding. The diseases we...

Genes involved and proteins TAL1 Location 1p32 DNA/RNA Complex alternate splicing. Protein Contains a basic Helix-Loop-Helix (DNA binding) domain; forms heterodimers; transcription factor; role in haematopoietic cell differentiation. Yet unknown gene Location 5q31 Result of the chromosomal anomaly Hybrid gene Description Breakpoint on TAL1 was found 10 kb upstream the gene, as was found in the ...

Pax-6 is an evolutionarily conserved transcription factor regulating brain and eye development. Four Pax-6 isoforms have been reported previously. Although the longer Pax-6 isoforms (p46 and p48) bear two DNA-binding domains, the paired domain (PD) and the homeodomain (HD), the shorter Pax-6 isoform p32 contains only the HD for DNA binding. Although a third domain, the proline-, serine- and thr...

An integral mitochondrial membrane protein (p32) of yeast has previously been molecularly cloned and sequenced and suggested to function as a mitochondrial import receptor. However, this protein has also been proposed to function as phosphate translocator [Guérin, B., Bukusoglu, C., Rakotomanana, F. & Wohlrab, H. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 19736-19741; Phelps, A., Schobert, C.T. & Wohlrab, H. (...
