Nonviral Delivery of Cancer Genetic Vaccines
The potential use of genetic vaccines to address numerous diseases including cancer is promising, but currently unrealized. Here, we review... -
Production and Formulation of Adenovirus Vectors
Adenovirus vectors have attracted considerable interest over the past decade, with ongoing clinical development programs for applications ranging... -
Molecular Conjugates
Molecular conjugates are nanometer-sized entities consisting of synthetic materials (lipids, polycations, targeting agents, and so on) and nucleic... -
Lager brewing yeast
Lager brewing yeast is a group of closely related strains of Saccharomyces pastorianus/S. carlsbergensis used for lager beer production all over the... -
Lentiviral Vectors
We review the use of lentiviral vectors in current human gene therapy applications that involve genetic modification of nondividing tissues with... -
Plasmid Vaccines and Therapeutics: From Design to Applications
In the late 1980s, Vical and collaborators discovered that the injection into tissues of unformulated plasmid encoding various proteins resulted in... -
Adeno-associated Virus as a Gene Therapy Vector: Vector Development, Production and Clinical Applications
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) has emerged as an attractive vector for gene therapy. AAV vectors have successfully been utilized to promote... -
Employing protein size in the functional analysis of orthologous proteins, as illustrated with the yeast HOG pathway
Comparative genomics has provided us with a new handle on the interpretation of protein sequences. The sequencing of numerous fungal genomes has... -
3 Biogenesis and cellular dynamics of glycerophospholipids in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as in other eukaryotes, glycerophospholipids are important cellular components required for growth and cell... -
9 Mechanisms and mediators of neutral lipid biosynthesis in eukaryotic cells
The reactions leading to the biosynthesis of neutral lipids are excellent targets for therapeutic intervention in several disease states including... -
4 Defects in cholesterol biosynthesis
Defects in eight different enzymes of cholesterol biosynthesis that result in serious clinical consequences have been identified. Most of these were... -
Duplication of genes and genomes in yeasts
The molecular evolution of the group of yeasts closely related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been profoundly affected by an ancient polyploidy... -
Effects of Sex Steroids on Innate and Adaptive Immunity
Estrogens and androgens are classically recognized as reproductive sex steroid hormones because of their well-documented effects on reproductive... -
Comprehensive and deep evaluation of structural variation detection pipelines with third-generation sequencing data
