    Simultaneous determination of protoporphyrin IX and magnesium protoporphyrin IX in Arabidopsis thaliana and Camellia sinensis using UPLC-MS/MS

    Insertion of Mg2+ into protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) to produce magnesium-protoporphyrin IX (Mg-PPIX) was the first step toward chlorophyll biosynthesis, which not only imparts plants green pigmentation but underpins ...

    Establishment of Caenorhabditis elegans SID-1-Dependent DNA Delivery System in Cultured Silkworm Cells

    The systemic RNA interference defective-1 (SID-1) can transport double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into cytosol across the cytoplasmic membrane. We report here that ectopic expression of Caenorhabditis elegans SID-1 all...

    Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel splice variant of the LIM domain family gene, PINCH 2, in human testis

    By hybridizing human adult testis cDNA microarrays with human adult and embryo testis cDNA probes, we identified a novel human testis gene, PINCH 2. PINCH 2 expression was 3.4-fold higher in adult than in feta...

    Use of an anaerobic chamber environment for the assay of endogenous cellular protein-tyrosine phosphatase activities

    Protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) have a catalytic cysteine residue whose reduced state is integral to the reaction mechanism. Since exposure to air can artifactually oxidize this highly reactive thiol, ...
