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 t(14;18)(q32;q21) chromosomal translocation present in over 60% of human follicular lymphomas is characterized and an unexpected rearrangement of an Ig heavy-chain gene is exploited to clone the chromosomal breakpoint.

Expression cloning of noggin, a new dorsalizing factor localized to the Spemann organizer in Xenopus embryos
TL;DR: The activity of exogenous noggin RNA in embryonic axis induction and the localized expression of endogenous noggan transcripts suggest that noggins plays a role in normal dorsal development.

TL;DR: Data show that survival after HIV infection can be determined by the HIV genome and support the importance of nef or the U3 region of the LTR in determining the pathogenicity of HIV-1.
