BGI-RIS: An integrated information resource and comparative analysis workbench for rice genomics
Download2004
Wang, J., Chen, Y., Zhao, H., Dai, M., Zhao, W., Huang, X., Zhang, Y., Ren. X., Jiao, Y., Wong, G., Wei, S., Ni, P., Yu, J., Zhang, J., Li, S., Yang, H., Fu, J., He, X.
Rice is a major food staple for the world's population and serves as a model species in cereal genome research. The Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI) has long been devoting itself to sequencing, information analysis and biological research of the rice and other crop genomes. In order to facilitate...

1994
A repetitive element of approximately 200 bp was cloned from harbour seal (Phoca vitulina concolour) genomic DNA. The sequence of the element revealed putative RNA polymerase III control boxes, a poly A tail and direct terminal repeats characteristic of SINEs. Sequence and secondary structural...

Characterisation of novel potential phosphorylation sites in the tumour suppressor Merlin in Drosophila
DownloadFall 2014
Neurofibromatosis Type II is an inherited cancer that manifests as various tumours in the nervous system. Mutations and deletions in the tumour suppressor Merlin (moesin, ezrin, radixin-like protein) are linked to the development of the disease. The mechanism by which Merlin suppresses cell...

Characterisation of the Non-Canonical Translation Initiation Factor eIF4E-3 as a Merlin Interacting Protein in Drosophila melanogaster
DownloadSpring 2016
Merlin is a tumour suppressor protein, the loss of which is linked to the inherited nervous system tumour syndrome Neurofibromatosis type 2 as well as sporadic tumour development. It is related to the ERM (ezrin-radixin-moesin) protein family, which is involved in linking the cytoskeleton to...

Fall 2017
Merlin and the ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) proteins are key organizers of the cell cortex through linking membrane-associated proteins to the underlying actin cytoskeleton. Merlin and the ERM proteins have been implicated in the maintenance of cell integrity, adhesion, and motility during tissue...

Characterization of the crosstalk between immunity and metabolism in Drosophila melanogaster model
DownloadFall 2021
Immune and metabolic pathways collectively contribute to the containment of microbial invaders, and persistent activation of immune responses contribute to the development of severe metabolic disorders. To determine how interaction between innate immune system and metabolic responses affected...

Fall 2015
There is a concern that brain tumours are underreported in the Alberta Cancer Registry (ACR), yet no studies have been performed to investigate this issue. This study addresses the concern of underreporting of brain tumours in the ACR by assessing case ascertainment of primary brain tumours cases...

Stothard, Paul, Arantes, Adriano S., Grant, Jason R.
Background Continued sequencing efforts coupled with advances in sequencing technology will lead to the completion of a vast number of small genomes. Whole-genome comparisons represent an important part of the analysis of any new genome sequence, as they can provide a better understanding of the...
