Repair of O6-ethylguanine in DNA by a chromatin fraction from rat liver: transfer of the ethyl group to an acceptor protein.

abstract：:Neurog3 (Neurogenin 3 or Ngn3) is both necessary and sufficient to induce endocrine islet cell differentiation from embryonic pancreatic progenitors. Since robust Neurog3 expression has not been detected in hormone-expressing cells, Neurog3 is used as an endocrine progenitor marker and regarded as dispensable for the ...
