Genes and Gene Networks Regulating Mineralization
The chapter addresses current understanding of gene regulation and defines hierarchical gene regulatory circuits mediating vertebrate mineral... -
Characterization of Gene Regulatory Networks in Plants Using New Methods and Data Types
A major question in plant biology is to understand how plant growth, development, and environmental responses are controlled and coordinated by the... -
Genome-Wide Prediction of Disease Resistance Gene Analogs in Flax
Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important crop as the sources of fiber and seed oil. Annually, various pathogens cause significant loss to flax... -
Multiple sclerosis patient-derived spontaneous B cells have distinct EBV and host gene expression profiles in active disease
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is an aetiologic risk factor for the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the role of EBV-infected B cells in...
