Journal ArticleDOI

The IL-6 signal transducer, gp130: an oncostatin M receptor and affinity converter for the LIF receptor

TL;DR: A complementary DNA was isolated that encodes the high-affinity converting subunit of the LIF receptor, identical to the signal transducing sub unit of the IL-6 receptor, gp130, which confers high- Affinity binding of both LIF and OSM when expressed with the low-Affinity Lif receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression cloning of a receptor for human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor.

TL;DR: Two cDNA clones encoding a receptor for human granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor were isolated by expression screening of a library made from human placental mRNA and cross‐linking experiments revealed a similar size for the glycosylated receptors in transfected COS and haemopoietic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukemia inhibitory factor receptor is structurally related to the IL-6 signal transducer, gp130.

TL;DR: A cDNA clone encoding the human LIF receptor was isolated by expression screening of a human placental cDNA library and suggests a common signal transduction pathway for the two receptors and may help to explain similar biological effects of the two ligands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning and expression of cDNA encoding a murine myeloid leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF).

TL;DR: Cloning, sequencing and expressing LIF has resolved several discrepancies in the literature concerning the identity of factors capable of inducing differentiation of murine myeloid leukaemic cells in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Achieving yield gains in wheat.

TL;DR: Crop development should favour spike fertility to maximize harvest index so phenology must be tailored to different photoperiods, and sensitivity to unpredictable weather must be modulated to reduce conservative responses that reduce harvest index.
