Electrospinning of silica nanoparticles-entrapped nanofibers for sustained gentamicin release.

abstract：:Two new human genes encoding putative G protein-coupled receptors were cloned from genomic DNA following a degenerate PCR strategy. The predicted amino acid sequences of the proteins encoded by these genes have the characteristic motifs of chemokine receptors. This prompted us to name these genes CKR-L1 and CKR-L3. Ne...
