Kayang, Boniface, Inoue-Murayama, Miho, Hoshi, Takuya, Matsuo, Koji, Takahashi, Hideaki, Minezawa, Mitsuru, ...

Abstract In line with the Gifu University's initiative to map the Japanese quail genome, a total of 100 Japanese quail microsatellite markers isolated in our laboratory were evaluated in a population...

Electron microscopic observation on the parathyroid gland of the cardiomyopathic hamster (UM-X7.1 Syrian hamster) (1999)

Utsumi, Michiya, Moriguchi, Keiichi, Takahashi, Hisahide, Kinoshita, Chiemi, Togari, Akifumi, Mizutani, Makoto, ...

The ultrastructure of the parathyroid gland (PTG) of the UM-X7.1 cardiomyopathic hamster (the UM-X7.1) was qualitatively and quantitatively compared with that of the normal hamster. In the UM-X7.1,...

Chicken Ornithine Transcarbamylase Gene, Structure, Regulation, and Chromosomal Assignment: Repetitive Sequence Motif in Intron 3 Regulates This Enzyme Activity (1998)

Shimogiri, Takeshi, Kono, Masanobu, Mannen, Hideyuki, Mizutani, Makoto, Tsuji, Soichi

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) is one of the urea cycle enzymes. While the chicken is a uricotelic animal, it has measurable OTC activity in its kidney. OTC activity is highly variable within and...

Twist Morphology of Organic Crystal (BPE-DMB)IBr2 (1996)

Kawabata, Kazushige, Kumagai, Tomonori, Mizutani, Makoto, Sambongi, Takashi

Crystals of (BPE-DMB)IBr2, where BPE-DMB denotes 1,4-bis[2-(pyrene-1-yl) vinyl]-2,5-dimethylbenzene, are found to be twisted along the growing axis. Their morphology was examined in detail by X-ray...

Polymorphisms and the Differential Antiviral Activity of the Chicken Mx Gene

Ko, Jae-Hong, Jin, Hee-Kyung, Asano, Atsushi, Takada, Ayato, Ninomiya, Ai, Kida, Hiroshi, ...

The nucleotide sequence of chicken Mx cDNA was reported earlier using the White Leghorn breed in Germany, but it showed no enhanced resistance to viruses. In this study, the nucleotide sequences of...

Hiragaki, Takahiro, Inoue-Murayama, Miho, Miwa, Mitsuru, Fujiwara, Akira, Mizutani, Makoto, Minvielle, Francis, ...

The recessive black plumage mutation in the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) is controlled by an autosomal recessive gene (rb) and displays a blackish-brown phenotype in the recessive homozygous...
