TLDR
A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.Abstract:
A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described. It is similar to the “plus and minus” method [Sanger, F. & Coulson, A. R. (1975) J. Mol. Biol. 94, 441-448] but makes use of the 2′,3′-dideoxy and arabinonucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase. The technique has been applied to the DNA of bacteriophage ϕX174 and is more rapid and more accurate than either the plus or the minus method.read more

TL;DR: The complete amino-acid sequence of the cyclic GMP-gated channel from bovine retinal rod photo-receptors, deduced by cloning and sequencing its complementary DNA, shows that the protein contains several putative transmembrane segments, followed by a region that is similar to the cyclo-GMP-binding domains of cyclicGMP-dependent protein kinase.

TL;DR: Three different protein kinase C related cDNA clones were isolated from a rat brain cDNA library and designatedPKC-I, PKC-II, and PKD-III, each encode very similar, but distinct, polypeptides that contain a region homologous with other protein kinases.

A component of calcium-activated potassium channels encoded by the Drosophila slo locus
TL;DR: Results indicate that slo encodes a structural component of Ca(2+)- activated K+ channels, similar to voltage-activated K+ channel polypeptides in discrete domains known to be essential for function.

TL;DR: Analysis of HIV-1 variants confirmed that the ddI resistance mutation alone conferred ddI and 2',3'-dideoxycytidine resistance, and suppressed the effect of the AZT resistance mutation.
