Genomics of the fungal kingdom: Insights into eukaryotic biology (2005)
Galagan, James E., Henn, Matthew R., Ma, Li-Jun, Cuomo, Christina A., Birren, Bruce
The last decade has witnessed a revolution in the genomics of the fungal kingdom. Since the sequencing of the first fungus in 1996, the number of available fungal genome sequences has increased by an...
Analysis of regions of RAG-2 important for V(D)J recombination (1994)
Cuomo, Christina A., Oettinger, Marjorie A.
The recombinase activating genes RAG-1 and RAG-2 operate together to activate V(D)J recombination, and thus play an essential role in the generation of immune system diversity. As a first step in...
