Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen dioxide and ozone as factors in the availability of lead from lead-based paints.
TL;DR: Exposure to NO(2) and O(3) increased the lead in wipe samples of stainless steel surfaces painted with alkyd low gloss solvent lead-based paint, with corresponding changes in surface morphology indicated by reflectometry and scanning electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A large-scale RNA interference screen identifies genes that regulate autophagy at different stages
Sujuan Guo,Kevin J. Pridham,Ching-Man A. Virbasius,Bin He,Liqing Zhang,Hanne Varmark,Michael R. Green,Zhi Sheng +7 more
TL;DR: A large-scale RNA interference screen in K562 human chronic myeloid leukemia cells identified genes that regulate autophagy at different stages, which helps decode Autophagy regulation in cancer and offers novel avenues to develop autophagic-related therapies for cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sexy gene conversions: locating gene conversions on the X-chromosome
Mark J. Lawson,Liqing Zhang +1 more
TL;DR: Through phylogenetic analyses and synteny evidence, it is shown that gene conversion has played an important role in the evolution of these gene families and that gene Conversion has occurred independently in both primates and rodents.
Journal ArticleDOI
HMMvar-func: a new method for predicting the functional outcome of genetic variants
TL;DR: The results show that the proposed computational method is effective in fine grained prediction of the functional outcome of a mutation, and can be used to help elucidate the molecular mechanism of disease/cancer causing mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced GII.4 human norovirus infection in gnotobiotic pigs transplanted with a human gut microbiota.
Shaohua Lei,Shaohua Lei,Erica Twitchell,Ashwin Ramesh,Tammy Bui,Elizabeth Majette,Christine M. Tin,Roger Avery,Gustavo Arango-Argoty,Liqing Zhang,Sylvia Becker-Dreps,M. Andrea Azcarate-Peril,Xi Jiang,Lijuan Yuan +13 more
TL;DR: 16S rRNA gene sequencing demonstrated that HuNoV infection dramatically altered intestinal microbiota in HGMT Gn pigs at the phylum (Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes) and genus levels and host microbiota was susceptible to disruption upon Hu noV infection.
