• A Homologous Genetic Basis of the Murine Cpfl1 Mutant and Human Achromatopsia Linked to Mutations in the Pde6C Gene 

      Chang, Bo; Grau, Tanja; Dangel, Susann; Hurd, Ron; Jurklies, Bernhard; Sener, E. Cumhur; Andreasson, Sten; Dollfus, Helene; Baumann, Britta; Bolz, Sylvia; Artemyev, Nikolai; Kohl, Susanne; Heckenlively, John; Wissinger, Bernd (Natl Acad Sciences, 2009)
      Retinal cone photoreceptors mediate fine visual acuity, daylight vision, and color vision. Congenital hereditary conditions in which there is a lack of cone function in humans cause achromatopsia, an autosomal recessive ...
    • Microrna-29 Family Reverts Aberrant Methylation In Lung Cancer By Targeting Dna Methyltransferases 3A And 3B

(Natl Acad Sciences, 2007)
      MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNAs that regulate expression of many genes. Recent studies suggest roles of miRNAs in carcinogenesis. We and others have shown that expression profiles of miRNAs are different in ...
