A pair of degenerate primers were designed based on NBS (nucleotide binding site, NBS) domain of resistance(R) gene and used to perform PCR with cDNA from the translocation line 6VS/6AL of Triticum aestivum-Haynaldia villosa. A clone (N7) characterized with NBS was obtained by sequencing analysis. Two specific primers were designed from the N7 sequence and used to screen a genomic TAC (transformation-competent artificial chromosome, TAC) library of 6VS/6AL consisting of ca. 2 x 10(6) clones. The library was stored as clone pools in twenty-two 96-well plates, each well containing approximately 1000 TAC clones. TAC plasmids were prepared from all the 2112 pools. Using a pooled PCR screening procedure, a positive TAC clone having a 40 kb insert was obtained. The positive clone was confirmed by Southern hybridization with the NBS fragment as a probe. The results indicate that the pooled PCR method is effective for screening of genomic libraries having large number of clones.

Atrial remodeling is a major pathophysiological mechanism of atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial remodeling progresses with aging and background diseases, including hypertension, heart failure, and AF itself. However, its mechanism of action and reversibility have not been completely elucidated.

Aim: Although the relief of ureteral obstruction seems to be a radical treatment for obstructive uropathy (OU), progressive kidney damage is the result because of the associated increased apoptosis and fibrosis. Therefore, it is urgent to find a complementary renoprotective therapy against partially obstructed uropathy cascades. Thus, this study investigated the renoprotective effects of both losartan (LOS) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) in partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (PUUO).

Early puberty is associated with improved long-term reproductive performance. Predicting who will achieve early puberty is limited to intensive, invasive serial blood collections for measurement of reproductive hormones. The vaginal genome during pubertal development has potential as biomarkers of early estrus in the pre-pubertal period.

Article Synopsis
  • Tgt enzyme modifies guanine in tRNAs with GUN anticodon to queuosine, which is crucial for bacterial growth under aminoglycoside stress.
  • Research highlights the significance of Q34 modification in enhancing decoding efficiency of specific codons (TAT and TAC) during tobramycin exposure.
  • Findings suggest that Q34 regulation can lead to translational reprogramming impacting genes like RsxA, crucial for the bacterial response to oxidative stress and antibiotics.

The dynamics of three-dimensional (3D) genome organization are essential to transcriptional regulation. While enhancers regulate spatiotemporal gene expression, chromatin looping is a means for enhancer-promoter interactions yielding cell-type-specific gene expression. Further, non-canonical DNA secondary structures, such as G-quadruplexes (G4s), are related to increased gene expression.
