Journal ArticleDOI
Faced with inequality: chicken do not have a general dosage compensation of sex-linked genes
Hans Ellegren,Lina Hultin-Rosenberg,Björn Brunström,Lennart Dencker,Kim Kultima,Birger Scholz +5 more
TL;DR: This report demonstrates the first example of an organism with a lack of global dosage compensation, providing an unexpected case of a viable system with large-scale imbalance in gene expression between sexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolism of arsenobetaine in mice, rats and rabbits
TL;DR: 73As-arsenobetaine was the only labelled arsenic compound detected in urine and soluble extract of tissues, indicating that no biotransformation occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue distribution and retention of 74As-dimethylarsinic acid in mice and rats.
TL;DR: The metabolism of dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), a common pesticide and the primary metabolite of inorganic arsenic in mammals, has been studied in mice and rats and some of the74As-DMA in the tissues was apparently in a complexed form.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of specific retinoid-binding sites and expression of cellular retinoic-acid-binding protein (CRABP) in the early mouse embryo.
TL;DR: The data suggest that cells in the embryo expressing CRABP are target cells for exogenous retinoids as well as endogenous retinoic acid, which may play an essential role in normal development of the CNS and of tissues derived from the neural crest.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cellular retinoic acid binding proteins
TL;DR: The two cellular retinoic acid binding proteins, CRABP I and CRABP II, belong to a family of small cytosolic lipid binding proteins and are highly conserved during evolution, and it is likely that these proteins serve as regulators in the transport and metabolism of retinic acid in the developing embryo and throughout adult life.
