Spectroscopic and voltammetric characterisation of the bacterioferritin-associated ferredoxin of Escherichia coli.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to be intensively involved in the development of various carcinomas, including glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). However, only a few of them have been well characterized. LncRNA CASP5 have been found to be up-regulated in GBM tissues compared with normal tis...
