...-state NMR, and cryo-electron microscopy have enabled the development of high-resolution molecular structures of these polymorphic amyloid fibrils, which are either grown in vitro or isolated from human and transgenic mouse brain tissues. This article reviews our current understanding of the structural...

.... The idea that TLRs undergo strong purifying selection provides the framework for the discussion of single nucleotide polymorphisms, many of which are associated with the incidence of infectious disease. 1 To whom correspondence should be addressed (email [email protected] ). 3 9 2007...

...A.V. Pandey All microsomal P450s require POR (cytochrome P450 reductase) for catalytic activity. Most of the clinically used drugs are metabolized by a small number of P450s and polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450s are known to cause changes in drug metabolism. We have recently found a number...

... polymorphism 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine) is one of the major neurotransmitters in both the central and the peripheral nervous systems, exerting its fast excitatory neuronal responses via activation of the only known 5-HT-gated ion channel, the 5-HT 3 receptor. The 5-HT 3 receptor is further expressed...

...C.C.A. Spencer Meiotic recombination in humans is thought to occur as part of the resolution of DSBs (double-strand breaks). The repair of DSBs potentially leads to biases in DNA repair that can distort the population frequency of the alleles at single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Genome-wide...
