Cell culture adaptation of Puumala hantavirus changes the infectivity for its natural reservoir, Clethrionomys glareolus, and leads to accumulation of mutants with altered genomic RNA S segment.

Lundkvist, A, Cheng, Y, Sjölander, K B, Niklasson, B, Vaheri, A, Plyusnin, A

This paper reports the establishment of a model for hantavirus host adaptation. Wild-type (wt) (bank vole-passaged) and Vero E6 cell-cultured variants of Puumala virus strain Kazan were analyzed for...

Puumala hantavirus genome in patients with nephropathia epidemica: correlation of PCR positivity with HLA haplotype and link to viral sequences in local rodents.

Plyusnin, A, Hörling, J, Kanerva, M, Mustonen, J, Cheng, Y, Partanen, J, ...

Reverse transcription-PCR was used to analyze specimens from 20 Finnish nephropathia epidemica (NE) patients hospitalized during the period from October 1994 to January 1995. Blood and/or urine...

Physical mapping of the Myxococcus xanthus genome by random cloning in yeast artificial chromosomes.

Kuspa, A, Vollrath, D, Cheng, Y, Kaiser, D

Random segments of Myxococcus xanthus DNA were cloned in yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) to construct a physical map of the genome. EcoRI restriction maps of 409 YAC clones with inserts averaging...

The three-dimensional map of microsomal glutathione transferase 1 at 6 Å resolution

Schmidt-Krey, I., Mitsuoka, K., Hirai, T., Murata, K., Cheng, Y., Fujiyoshi, Y., ...

Microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) is representative of a superfamily of membrane proteins where different members display distinct or overlapping physiological functions, including...

A two year prospective study to compare culture and polymerase chain reaction amplification for the detection and diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis.

Picken, M M, Picken, R N, Han, D, Cheng, Y, Ruzic-Sabljic, E, Cimperman, J, ...

AIM: To compare polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of borrelial DNA and culture isolation of spirochaetes for the diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis by direct detection of Borrelia burgdorferi...

Caspase inhibitor affords neuroprotection with delayed administration in a rat model of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury.

Cheng, Y, Deshmukh, M, D'Costa, A, Demaro, J A, Gidday, J M, Shah, A, ...

Programmed cell death (apoptosis) is a normal process in the developing nervous system. Recent data suggest that certain features seen in the process of programmed cell death may be favored in the...

The delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) polymorphism and bone and blood lead levels in community-exposed men: the Normative Aging Study.

Hu, H, Wu, M T, Cheng, Y, Sparrow, D, Weiss, S, Kelsey, K

Recent research has indicated that a polymorphic variant of delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) may influence an individual's level of lead in bone and blood and, as a result, may also...

Identification and Genetic Analysis of Wunen, a Gene Guiding Drosophila Melanogaster Germ Cell Migration

Zhang, N., Zhang, J., Cheng, Y., Howard, K.

We describe a novel genetic locus, wunen (wun), required for guidance of germ cell migration in early Drosophila development. Loss of wun function does not abolish movement but disrupts the...

A high-resolution physical map of human chromosome 11.

Qin, S, Nowak, N J, Zhang, J, Sait, S N, Mayers, P G, Higgins, M J, ...

The development of a highly reliable physical map with landmark sites spaced an average of 100 kbp apart has been a central goal of the Human Genome Project. We have approached the physical mapping...

A physical map of the Myxococcus xanthus chromosome.

He, Q, Chen, H, Kuspa, A, Cheng, Y, Kaiser, D, Shimkets, L J

A physical map of the 9.2-Mbp Myxococcus xanthus DK1622 chromosome at a resolution of 25 kbp was constructed by using a strategy that is applicable to virtually all microorganisms. Segments of the...

Control of mouse U1 snRNA gene expression during in vitro differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells.

Cheng, Y, Lund, E, Kahan, B W, Dahlberg, J E

Early in mouse development, two classes of U1 RNAs, mU1a and mU1b, are synthesized, but as development proceeds, transcription of the embryo-specific mU1b genes is selectively down-regulated to a...
