As zoonotic pathogens are threatening public health globally, the virulence factor genes
(VFGs) they carry underlie latent risk in the environment. However, profiling VFGs in the …

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was extracted from teeth stored from 3 months to 20 years,
including teeth from the semi–skeletonized remains of a murder victim which had been …

The insulin-regulated glucose transporter isotype GluT4 expressed only in muscle and
adipose cells is sequestered in a specific secretory vesicle. These vesicles harbor another …

The processes of DNA replication, DNA ligation, and RNA transcription have provided the
