Fluorescence-based sensing is a significant technique used in prominent fields such as
fluorescence-activated cell sorting, DNA sequencing, high-throughput screening, and …

Neuroligins are cell-adhesion molecules located at the postsynaptic side of the synapse.
Neuroligins interact with β-neurexins and this interaction is involved in the formation of …

Disc degeneration is a complex condition in which environmental factors and multiple genes
are expected to act together to determine the degenerative phenotype. Recently …

We have investigated the impact of steric effects on the hybridization and enzymatic
extension of oligonucleotides bound to 12-nm colloidal Au particles. In these experiments, a …

In this paper we focus on two technologies that appear to be best suited for whole-genome
profiling: SNP and DArT. Sequencing accomplishments in several model species have …

Whole genome amplification (WGA) procedures such as primer extension preamplification
(PEP) or multiple displacement amplification (MDA) have the potential to provide an …

DNA biosensors are being developed as alternatives to conventional DNA microarrays.
These devices couple signal transduction directly to sequence recognition. Some of the …

Based on a hypothesis that interleukin 1 (IL-1) activity is associated with low back pain
(LBP), we investigated relationships between previously described functional IL-1 gene …

Microarray technology provides a new tool with which molecular ecologists and evolutionary
biologists can survey genome‐wide patterns of gene expression within and among species …

We have demonstrated a new concept in the design of base-discriminating fluorescent
(BDF) nucleosides that can clearly distinguish the type of base opposite the BDF base by a …
