Overexpression of 7a, a Protein Specifically Encoded by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus, Induces Apoptosis via a Caspase-Dependent Pathway
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)
Besides genes that are homologous to proteins found in other coronaviruses, the severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus genome also contains nine other potential open reading frames. Previously, we have
characterized ...
Characterization of a unique group-specific protein (U122) of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)
A novel coronavirus (CoV) has been identified as the etiological agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome
(SARS). The SARS-CoV genome encodes the characteristic essential CoV replication and structural proteins.
Additionally, ...
Opportunities in Africa for training in genome science
(Academic Journals, 2004)
Genome science is a new type of biology that unites genetics, molecular biology, computational
biology and bioinformatics. The availability of the human genome sequence, as well as the genome
sequences of several other ...
Comparative analysis of testis and ovary transcriptomes in zebrafish by combining experimental and computational tools
(Wiley, 2004)
Studies on the zebrafish model have contributed to our understanding of several
important developmental processes, especially those that can be easily studied in the embryo. However, knowledge on late events such as gonad ...
Telemedicine using VoIP combined with a store and forward approach
(Telkom, 2004)
Rural areas in South Africa have unique conditions such as remoteness and scarcity of reliable public facilities. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) introduced into these areas must be suitable for these ...
16 S rDNA primers and the unbiased assessment of thermophile diversity
(Portland Press, 2004)
Our understanding of thermophile diversity is based predominantly on PCR studies of community DNA.
‘Universal’ and domain-specific rRNA gene PCR primers have historically been used for the assessment
of microbial diversity ...
Metagenomics, gene discovery and the ideal biocatalyst
(Portland Press, 2004)
With the rapid development of powerful protein evolution and enzyme-screening technologies, there is
a growing belief that optimum conditions for biotransformation processes can be established without
the constraints of ...
A Softbridge with carrier grade reliability using JAIN SLEE
(Telkom, 2004)
We have built a SoftBridge prototype within a JAIN (Java APIs for the Integrated Network) SLEE (Service Logic Execution Environment). A SoftBridge is a semi-synchronous multimodal IP (Internet Protocol) -based communication ...
Cellular Characterization of SARS Coronavirus Nucleocapsid
(Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environment and Human Factors, 2004)
The Severe and Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS CoV) is a newly-emerged virus that caused an outbreak of atypical pneumonia in the winter of 2002-2003. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the nucleocapsid (N) ...
Profiles of antibody responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus recombinant proteins and their potential use as diagnostic markers
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)
