A novel ArsR-SmtB family transcriptional repressor, KmtR, has been characterised from mycobacteria. Mutants of M. tuberculosis lacking kmtR show elevated expression of Rv2025c encoding a deduced CDF-family metal-exporter. KmtR-dependent repression of the cdf and kmtR operator-promoters was alleviate...
We have compared three different glycopeptide enrichment techniques (SAX-ERLIC, HILIC, and lectin affinity) and a C18 control to a tryptic digest of proteins from depleted human plasma.
Human retinal and RPE SAGE libraries. Profile of the genes expressed in the human peripheral retina, macula, and retinal pigment epithelium determined through serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE). Keywords: other
Time is often not characterized as a variable in ecotoxicogenomic studies. In this study, the temporal kinetics in gene expression were determined during exposure to crude oil and a subsequent recovery period. Juvenile rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, were exposed for 96 hours to the water accom...
Traditional biomarkers for hydrocarbon exposure are not induced by all petroleum substances. The objective of this study was to determine if exposure to a crude oil and different refined oils would generate a common hydrocarbon-specific response in gene expression profiles that could be used as gene...
Studying the endophyte strains of poplar that help the plant solubilize phosphate, we observed direct evidence of endophyte-promoted phosphorous fixation. Using synchrotron x-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF) microscopy combined with x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), we visualized the nutrient p...
