Journal ArticleDOI

A Molecular Chipper technology for CRISPR sgRNA library generation and functional mapping of noncoding regions

TL;DR: A Molecular Chipper technology for generating dense sgRNA libraries for genomic regions of interest, and a proof-of-principle screen that identifies novel cis-regulatory domains for miR-142 biogenesis are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The hook protein of Borrelia burgdorferi, encoded by the flgE gene, is serologically recognized in Lyme disease.

TL;DR: The cloning and expression of the hook gene, flgE, of B. burgdorferi was cloned into an Escherichia coli expression plasmid, pMX, to produce FlgE protein, and the antiserum was found to react with a 40-kDa peptide in the whole-cell lysates, confirming the expression ofThe periplasmic flagellum of Borrelia burgorferi.
Journal ArticleDOI

How to define biomarkers of human T cell aging and immunocompetence

TL;DR: How aging affects the number, phenotype, and function of human naive and memory T cells, and how to identify and validate potential biomarkers of T cell aging are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

T-Cell Activation: Two for T

TL;DR: T-cell activation requires costimulation in addition to the antigen-specific signal, and distinct costimulatory molecules can specifically activate different types of T-cell response.
