Analysis of sequence upstream of the endogenous H19 gene reveals elements both essential and dispensable for imprinting.

abstract：:Tetrahymena ciliary membrane vesicles are shown to interact with preconjugant cells in a mating type-specific way. When cells are treated with vesicles of a different mating type before mixing for conjugation, cell pairing is enhanced, and the normal prepairing period is partially eliminated. This enhancement is matin...

Increases in cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in response to CT are likely responsible for the induction of TIS10 gene expression, since treatment with 8-Br-cAMP and increasing the intracellular levels o...
