• Background Mutational Features of the Radiation-Resistant Bacterium Deinococcus Radiodurans 

      Long, Hongan; Kucukyildirim, Sibel; Sung, Way; Williams, Emily; Lee, Heewook; Ackerman, Matthew; Doak, Thomas G.; Tang, Haixu; Lynch, Michael (Oxford Univ Press, 2015)
      Deinococcus bacteria are extremely resistant to radiation, oxidation, and desiccation. Resilience to these factors has been suggested to be due to enhanced damage prevention and repair mechanisms, as well as highly efficient ...

      Recent years have seen considerable progress in applying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to population genetics studies. However, relatively few have attempted to use them to study the genetic differentiation of ...
    • Mutations In Emp2 Cause Childhood-Onset Nephrotic Syndrome 

      Gee, Heon Yung; Ashraf, Shazia; Wan, Xiaoyang; Vega-Warner, Virginia; Esteve-Rudd, Julian; Lovric, Svjetlana; Fang, Humphrey; Hurd, Toby W.; Sadowski, Carolin E.; Allen, Susan J.; Otto, Edgar A.; Korkmaz, Emine; Washburn, Joseph; Levy, Shawn; Williams, David S.; Bakkaloglu, Sevcan A.; Zolotnitskaya, Anna; Ozaltin, Fatih; Zhou, Weibin; Hildebrandt, Friedhelm (Cell Press, 2014)
      Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a genetically heterogeneous group of diseases that are divided into steroid-sensitive NS (SSNS) and steroid-resistant NS (SRNS). SRNS inevitably leads to end-stage kidney disease, and no curative ...
