Department of Biochemistry, Saitama Cancer Center Research Institute, Japan
Comput Appl Biosci 11:543-51. 1995..Consistency of nearly 90% was attained between structural and sequence alignments of multiple divergent globins, confirming the effectiveness of this strategy in improving the quality of multiple sequence alignment...
Divergent structures of Caenorhabditis elegans cytochrome P450 genes suggest the frequent loss and gain of introns during the evolution of nematodesO Gotoh
Saitama Cancer Center Research Institute, Saitama, Japan
Mol Biol Evol 15:1447-59. 1998..All of these findings are explained better by the intron-late view than by the intron-early view...
Gene structure and chromosomal location of a human bHLH transcriptional factor DEC1 x Stra13 x SHARP-2/BHLHB2M Teramoto
Department of Biochemistry, Hiroshima University School of Dentistry, Kasumi, Minami Ku, Hiroshima 734 8553, Japan
J Biochem 129:391-6. 2001..The DEC1 gene locates at Chromosome 3p25.3--26 by the FISH method. This is the first study to determine the genomic structure of the DEC1 gene subgroup...
Structure, evolution, and liver-specific expression of sterol 12alpha-hydroxylase P450 (CYP8B)H Ishida
Department of Biochemistry, Hiroshima University School of Dentistry, Minami Ku, Hiroshima, 734 8553, Japan
J Biochem 126:19-25. 1999..The enhanced CYP8B mRNA expression in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats was significantly decreased by insulin within 3 h of its administration. These facts demonstrate a regulatory role of insulin in CYP8B expression as a suppressor...
Membrane-bound transferrin-like protein (MTf): structure, evolution and selective expression during chondrogenic differentiation of mouse embryonic cellsK Nakamasu
Department of Biochemistry, Hiroshima University School of Dentistry, Kasumi 1 2 3, Minami Ku, Hiroshima, Japan
Biochim Biophys Acta 1447:258-64. 1999..The structural characteristics and the expression pattern suggest that during development and in adult tissues, MTf has some functions that are different from those of other transferrins...
Structural and phylogenetic analyses of RGD-CAP/beta ig-h3, a fasciclin-like adhesion protein expressed in chick chondrocytesT Kawamoto
Department of Biochemistry, Hiroshima University, School of Dentistry, Japan
Biochim Biophys Acta 1395:288-92. 1998..Phylogenetic analysis showed that a portion of the common ancestor gene for RGD-CAP/beta ig-h3 and OSF2 was duplicated to form four repeat domains before the separation of the genes followed by the divergence of vertebrate species...
Homology-based gene structure prediction: simplified matching algorithm using a translated codon (tron) and improved accuracy by allowing for long gapsO Gotoh
