This chapter examines the advances in the analysis of the Ribosomal Rna Gene (rDNA)
locus, with a particular emphasis on the spacer region, and how the studies are modifying …

Human hepatoma cells mimic the acute phase response after treatment with monocyte-
conditioned medium. Levels of secreted fibrinogen, alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, C-reactive …

Mouse genome contains two major families of short interspersed repeats in more than 105
copies scattered throughout the whole genome. They are referred to as B1 and B2 …

Ribosomal RNA gene repeats (rDNA) encode ribosomal RNA, a major component of
ribosomes. Ribosome biogenesis is central to cellular metabolic regulation, and several …

We report the Identification and characterization of a family of repeated restriction fragments
whose molecular organization is apparently specific to the human X chromosome. This …

We report the isolation of an alternatively spliced human lysosome-associated membrane
protein-2 (h-lamp-2) transcript which is overexpressed in human muscle. The cloning of this …

The complete repeating unit of the human ribosomal RNA gene has been reconstructed by
the cloning of approximately 27 kilobases (kb) of non-transcribed spacer. The structure of …

Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT; EC2. 4.2. 8), which functions in
the metabolic salvage of purines, is encoded by an X-linked gene in man. Partial HPRT …

NORs and interphase nucleoli have been silver stained in Allium cepa, A. fistulosum,
reciprocal crosses between both species, and in different strains of top onions which …

We investigated the methylation state of a set of storage protein genes of maize, coding for
zeins and glutelins, in different somatic tissues and in developing endosperms. These …
