72 Multiservice Ethernet access (2008)

P Gunning, M Wilkinson, L Rragami, S Semnani, K Smith

Ethernet is evolving from its origins in the local area network into a cost-effective and reliable wide area network technology. Market research shows that business customers are moving away from...

Heimann, K. R., Percival, J. M., Weinberger, R., Gunning, P., Stow, J. L.

Regulation of the human beta-actin promoter by upstream and intron domains.

Ng, S Y, Gunning, P, Liu, S H, Leavitt, J, Kedes, L

We have identified three regulatory domains of the complex human beta-actin gene promoter. They span a region of about 3000 bases, from not more than -2011 bases upstream of the mRNA cap site to...

Chromosomal location of the co-expressed human skeletal and cardiac actin genes.

Gunning, P, Ponte, P, Kedes, L, Eddy, R, Shows, T

We have examined the relationship between chromosomal location and regulation of the two human genes encoding the sarcomeric muscle actins. The human genes encoding skeletal alpha-actin and cardiac...

Gamma Tropomyosin Gene Products Are Required for Embryonic Development

Hook, J., Lemckert, F., Qin, H., Schevzov, G., Gunning, P.

The actin filament system is essential for many cellular functions, including shape, motility, cytokinesis, intracellular trafficking, and tissue organization. Tropomyosins (Tms) are rod-like...

Structure, chromosome location, and expression of the human gamma-actin gene: differential evolution, location, and expression of the cytoskeletal beta- and gamma-actin genes.

Erba, H P, Eddy, R, Shows, T, Kedes, L, Gunning, P

The accumulation of the cytoskeletal beta- and gamma-actin mRNAs was determined in a variety of mouse tissues and organs. The beta-isoform is always expressed in excess of the gamma-isoform. However,...

Evolution of the functional human beta-actin gene and its multi-pseudogene family: conservation of noncoding regions and chromosomal dispersion of pseudogenes.

Ng, S Y, Gunning, P, Eddy, R, Ponte, P, Leavitt, J, Shows, T, ...

We have assigned six members of the human beta-actin multigene family to specific human chromosomes. The functional gene, ACTB, is located on human chromosome 7, and the other assigned...

Regulation of a human cardiac actin gene introduced into rat L6 myoblasts suggests a defect in their myogenic program.

Hickey, R, Skoultchi, A, Gunning, P, Kedes, L

The rat myogenic cell line L6E9 induces skeletal but not cardiac alpha-actin mRNA upon fusion to form myotubes. However, when a human cardiac alpha-actin gene was introduced into L6E9 myoblasts,...

Differential patterns of transcript accumulation during human myogenesis.

Gunning, P, Hardeman, E, Wade, R, Ponte, P, Bains, W, Blau, H M, ...
