Cytochrome b5 potentiation of cytochrome P-450 catalytic activity demonstrated by a vaccinia virus-mediated in situ reconstitution system.

Aoyama, T, Nagata, K, Yamazoe, Y, Kato, R, Matsunaga, E, Gelboin, H V, ...

A cDNA containing the full coding region of human cytochrome b5 was inserted into a vaccinia virus cDNA expression vector. Infection of human thymidine kinase-minus (TK-) 143 cells in culture with...

Structure of cloned delta-globin genes from a normal subject and a patient with delta-thalassemia; sequence polymorphisms found in the delta-globin gene region of Japanese individuals.

Kimura, A, Matsunaga, E, Ohta, Y, Fujiyoshi, T, Matsuo, T, Nakamura, T, ...

The delta-globin genes of a normal Japanese and a Japanese patient with homozygous delta-thalassemia were cloned, and the nucleotide sequence of a region including the gene was determined. Comparison...

A novel cis-acting element controlling the rat CYP2D5 gene and requiring cooperativity between C/EBP beta and an Sp1 factor.

Lee, Y H, Yano, M, Liu, S Y, Matsunaga, E, Johnson, P F, Gonzalez, F J

The rat CYP2D5 gene encodes a cytochrome P450 and is expressed in liver cells. Its expression commences a few days after birth, and maximal mRNA levels are achieved when animals reach puberty....

Isolation and some structural analyses of a proteodermatan sulphate from calf skin.

Nakamura, T, Matsunaga, E, Shinkai, H

A proteodermatan sulphate was isolated from 0.15 M-NaCl and 0.45 M-NaCl extracts of newborn-calf skin. The proteoglycan was separated from collagen and hyaluronic acid by precipitation with...

Evidence for the presence and structure of asparagine-linked oligosaccharide units in the core protein of proteodermatan sulphate.

Shinkai, H, Nakamura, T, Matsunaga, E

The N-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides were liberated by hydrazinolysis from purified proteodermatan sulphate from newborn-calf skin and reduced with NaB3H4 at the reducing terminal sugar. One...

Molecular analysis of the gene of the alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency variant, Mnichinan.

Matsunaga, E, Shiokawa, S, Nakamura, H, Maruyama, T, Tsuda, K, Fukumaki, Y

Mnichinan, a variant of alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1-AT) was detected in a Japanese individual with serum alpha 1-AT deficiency (18 mg/dl), associated with aggregated alpha 1-AT molecules in the...

Hereditary retinoblastoma: delayed mutation or host resistance?

Matsunaga, E

Evidence is presented from the literature that there is little need to postulate delayed mutation for the retinoblastoma locus. Both penetrance and expressivity in the gene carrier can be defined as...
