La PCR-temps réel dans le diagnostic des alpha-thalassémies: une alternative d’avenir ?
Les lésions génétiques associées aux alpha thalassémies sont souvent dues à des délétions touchant un/deux loci de la globine. Le but de cette étude est d’évaluer l’intérêt des températures et courbes de fusio...

Conservation of the MC domains in eukaryotic release factor eRF3
Eukaryotic translation termination employs two protein factors, eRF1 and eRF3. Proteins of the eRF3 family each consist of three domains. The N and M domains vary in different species, while the C domains are ...

Increased tRNA level in yeast cells with mutant translation termination factors eRF1 and eRF3
We have earlier characterized Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with mutations of essential SUP45 and SUP35, which code for translation termination factors eRF1 and eRF3, respectively. In this work, the sup45 and

Nonsense mutations in the essential gene SUP35 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are non-lethal
In the present work we have characterized for the first time non-lethal nonsense mutations in the essential gene SUP35, which codes for the translation termination factor eRF3 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The scr...

Beta-thalassaemia in indigenous Belgian families: identification of a novel mutation
The molecular basis of β-thalassemia was investigated at the DNA level in 28 Belgians from 14 unrelated families. All the patients were heterozygous for β-thalassaemia. Seven different mutations were identifi...

High expression of bcl-2 is the rule in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, except in Burkitt subtype at presentation, and is not correlated with the prognosis
Bcl-2 expression and its prognostic value were evaluated using the APAAP technique in 40 ALL patients. Because of a possible synergy between c-myc and bcl-2 proteins in cell lines, we compared 40 ALL of either...
