Heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein K (hnRNP K) binds to the 5' untranslated region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and is required for HCV RNA replication. The hnRNP K binding site on HCV RNA overlaps with the sequence recognized by the liver-specific microRNA, miR-122. A proteome chip containing ∼17,000 unique human proteins probed with miR-122 identified hnRNP K as one of the strong binding proteins.

Cardiac left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) defects represent a common but heterogeneous subset of congenital heart disease for which gene identification has been difficult. We describe a 46,XY,t(1;5)(p36.11;q31.

Usher syndrome 1B (USH1B) is a severe, autosomal recessive, deaf-blind disorder caused by mutations in myosin 7A (MYO7A). Patients are born profoundly deaf and exhibit progressive loss of vision starting in their first decade. MYO7A is expressed in human photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium, but disease pathology begins in photoreceptors, highlighting the need to develop a gene replacement strategy that effectively targets this cell type.

We examined spike (S) gene sequences of the virus populations of four different commercial ArkDPI-derived infectious bronchitis coronavirus vaccines before and during a single passage in specific pathogen free chickens. We found different degrees of genetic heterogeneity among the four vaccines before passage in chickens, ranging from no apparent heterogeneity to heterogeneity in 20 positions in the S gene. In all except one position, nucleotide differences were non-synonymous.

The objective of this study was to characterize the ABL1-BCR fusion gene in 76 BCR-ABL1-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients regarding expression as well as genomic status, to assess the frequency of ABL1-BCR gene deletion in these patients, which has been reported to be an adverse prognostic factor in Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML. Patients were analyzed for ABL1-BCR 1b-b3 and/or 1b-b4 transcription by RT-PCR analysis. ABL1-BCR gene status was analyzed by FISH in 16 CML patients with no ABL1-BCR transcript.
