Acute phase gene expression in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after exposure to a confinement stressor: A comparison of pooled and individual data
(Elsevier, 2009-06-09)This study set out to investigate whether differential expression of genes for acute phase proteins in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) could be induced by confinement stress, a non-invasive method of activating the ... -
Characterisation of the differentially regulated trout protein 1 (DRTP1) gene in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Elsevier, 2008-10-04)Increased levels of differentially regulated trout protein 1 (DRTP1) mRNA transcripts have been reported in fish after activation of the acute phase response. While the function of the DRTP1 protein still remains to be ... -
Evaluation of a novel PCR based diagnostic assay for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in sputum specimens
(ACM, 1996-06-18)We report on a PCR-based assay we have developed for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in sputum samples. One hundred sputum specimens, which included 34 culture-positive and 66 culture-negative specimens, were ... -
Gene prediction using the Self-Organizing Map: automatic generation of multiple gene models
(BioMed Central, 2005-03-05)Background: Many current gene prediction methods use only one model to represent protein-coding regions in a genome, and so are less likely to predict the location of genes that have an atypical sequence composition. It ... -
Gene prediction using the Self-Organizing Map: automatic generation of multiple gene models
(2004-03-05)This work explores a new approach to gene-prediction, based on the Self-Organizing Map, which has the ability to automatically identify multiple gene models within a genome. The current implementation, named RescueNet, ...
