TL;DR: It is shown that the dominant RN- mutation in purebred Hampshire pigs carries a nonconservative substitution (R200Q) in the PRKAG3 gene, which encodes a muscle-specific isoform of the regulatory gamma subunit of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK).
Journal ArticleDOI
Myrosinase: gene family evolution and herbivore defense in Brassicaceae.
TL;DR: The evolution of the glucosinolate-myrosinase system and its impact on the interaction between plants and insects are discussed, and data suggesting additional functions in the defense against pathogens and in sulfur metabolism are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The three-dimensional structure of retinol-binding protein.
TL;DR: The complex of Retinol with its carrier protein, retinol‐binding protein (RBP) has been crystallized and its three‐dimensional structure determined using X‐ray crystallography using an eight‐stranded up‐and‐down beta barrel core.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete amino acid sequence of an HLA-DR antigen-like beta chain as predicted from the nucleotide sequence: similarities with immunoglobulins and HLA-A, -B, and -C antigens.
Dan Larhammar,L. Schenning,Kenth Gustafsson,Klas G. Wiman,L. Claesson,Lars Rask,Per A. Peterson +6 more
TL;DR: The complete nucleotide sequence of an HLA-DR antigen-like beta-chain cDNA clone was determined and data establish that the major histocompatibility antigens of class I and class II type and the constant regions of immunoglobulin are evolutionarily related.
Journal ArticleDOI
HLA-D region β-chain DNA endonuclease fragments differ between HLA-DR identical healthy and insulin-dependent diabetic individuals
David Owerbach,Åke Lernmark,Per Platz,Lars P. Ryder,Lars Rask,Per A. Peterson,Johnny Ludvigsson +6 more
TL;DR: The β-chain cDNA probe, pDR-β-1, is used to test whether there are differences in hybridization pattern between DNA from healthy individuals and diabetic patients, after digestion with restriction endonucleases, among the HLA-DR 4 and 3/4 individuals.
