Abstract Objective —To develop a method to experimentally induce Borrelia burgdorferi infection in young adult dogs. Animals —22 healthy Beagles. Procedure —All dogs were verified be free of borreliosis. Twenty 6-month-old exposed -infected ticks and treated with dexamethasone for 5 consecutive days. Two not served as negative-control Clinical signs, results microbial culture polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing, immunologic responses, gross histologic lesions evaluated 9 months after...
A cotton genomic library was screened using a fiber-specific cDNA (GH3) encoding lipid transfer protein (LTP). One clone (1.7 kb DNA insert) containing the Ltp gene (Ltp6) sequenced and characterized. The Ltp6 contains an open reading frame of 360 bp, which is interrupted by single intron (136 bp) located in region corresponding to C-terminal protein. derived amino-acid sequence LTP6 64% homologous that GH3. Like GH3 gene, specifically expressed fiber cells temporal manner. However, its...
Cotton fiber is an important commodity throughout the world. Fiber property determines quality and commercial values. Previous studies showed that silencing phytochrome A1 gene (PHYA1) by RNA interference in Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Coker 312) had generated PHYA1 RNAi lines with simultaneous improvements (longer, stronger finer fiber) other key agronomic traits. Characterization of altered molecular processes these genotypes its wild-type controls a great interest to better...

Silencing phytochrome A1 gene (PHYA1) by RNA interference in Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Coker 312) had generated PHYA1 RNAi lines with improved fiber quality (longer, stronger and finer fiber). To reveal molecular mechanisms that govern development positive traits, a study of global expression profiling 10-DPA fibers line its parent 312 was conducted high-throughput sequencing. A comparative analysis transcriptomes between the two identified 142 genes were differentially...
A cotton fiber cDNA and its genomic sequences encoding an A-type cyclin-dependent kinase (GhCDKA) were cloned characterized. The encoded GhCDKA protein contains the conserved cyclin-binding, ATP binding, catalytic domains. Northern blot RT-PCR analysis revealed that transcript was high in 5-10 DPA fibers, moderate 15 20 fibers roots, low flowers leaves. levels increased from 5-15 DPA, peaked at decreased t0 DPA. differential expression of suggested gene might play important role development....

Two cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) genes, ghprpl and ghprpl, encoding cell wall proline-rich proteins (PRPs) have been cloned characterized. The gene has an open reading frame (ORF) that encodes a PRP of 299 amino acids (aa), whereas the ghprp2 contains ORF codes for 310-aa PRP. GhPRPl 80% identity in aa sequence with GhPRP2. Like other plant PRPs, both PRPs hydrophobic signal peptide at their N-termini, followed by repeating units. Northern blot analyses showed ghprp1 is predominantly...
The ubiquitin-proteasome proteolysis pathway is responsible for the degradation of abnormal and short-lived proteins to regulate many important biochemical activities in eukaryotes. By employing affymetrix microarray analysis, we have identified a novel ubiquitin ligase E3 gene GhRING2 that differentially expressed between two Gossypium hirsutum lines-Texas Marker-1 (TM-1) Chromosome Substitution Line CS-B25. CS-B25 line has chromosome 25 from G. barbadense substituted into TM-1. complete...
A 1.8 kb PstI fragment from Halobacterium halobium DNA was found to hybridize synthetic oligonu-cleotide probes constructed by using the sequence of N-terminus a Mn-containing superoxide dismutase purified H.halobium. The entire insert containing 600-bp coding for Mn-SOD and its 5′ 3′ flanking regions sequenced. derived amino acid structural gene showed similarity other manganic iron-containing dismutases in normally conserved regions. Primer extension analysis H. mRNA that transcription...
A chromosome substitution line, CS-B25, was developed by the of pair 25 Gossypium hirsutum TM-1 with homologous from G. barbadense, a double haploid Pima 3-79 line. CS-B25 has improved fiber traits compared to its parent TM-1. To explore molecule mechanisms underlying traits, deep sequencing total RNA used compare gene expression in fibers and at 10 days post anthesis (10-DPA). 1872 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected between two lines, 1175 up-regulated 697 down-regulated...
Synthetic biology methods can be used to construct a biological hydrogen detector, provided activated promoter identified. The hybB operon is directly involved in the production of hydrogenase II and thus may show some activity based on presence. This report studies relationship between concentration as well possible testing for detector. placed upstream DNA coding part that converts PoPS (polymerases per second) into fluorescence create detector with reporting ability. engineered DNA, when...
