Molecular basis of the silkworm mutant re causing red egg color and embryonic death.

The coloration and hatchability of insect eggs can affect individual and population survival. However, few genetic loci have been documented to affect both traits, and the genes involved in regulating these two traits are unclear. The silkworm recessive mutant re shows both red egg color and embryo mortality.

gene encoding a C2H2 zinc finger protein is required for wing development in the silkworm .

Cys2-His2 zinc finger (C2H2-ZF) proteins represent the most common class of transcription factors. These factors have great potential for the management of developmental progression by regulating the specific spatiotemporal expression of genes. In this study, we cloned one C2H2-ZF protein gene of , , that is orthologous to (); we thus named it as ().

Genome-wide identification and expression profiling of the C2H2-type zinc finger protein genes in the silkworm .

Cys2-His2 zinc finger (C2H2-ZF) proteins comprise the largest class of putative eukaryotic transcription factors. The zinc finger motif array is highly divergent, indicating that most proteins will have distinctive binding sites and perform different functions. However, the binding sites and functions of the majority of C2H2-ZF proteins remain unknown.

[Effects and significance of gas explosion on expression of NF-kappaB and ICAM1 in lung tissue of rats].

Objective: To explore the expression of NF-kappaB and ICAM-1 in the gas explosion wounded lung of rats and the relationship.

Methods: Digoxin labeled NF-kappaB was used as probe. In situ hybridization was performed to detect the NF-kappaB mRNA.

[A study on relationship between rat brain tissues hurts of the gas explosion and the expression of protein kinase CamRNA and c-fos gene.].

Objectives: To explore relationship between rat brain tissues hurts of gas explosion and the expression of Protein Kinase C alpha mRNA.

Methods: Build up rat hurt model of gas explosion. In Situ Hybridization (IDH) technique was used to test Protein Kinase C alpha mRNA.
