Expression of transforming growth factor beta mRNA isoforms in human breast cancer (1994)
Journal Article
MacCallum, J., Bartlett, J., Thompson, A., Keen, J., Dixon, J., & Miller, W. (1994). Expression of transforming growth factor beta mRNA isoforms in human breast cancer. British Journal of Cancer, 69(6), 1006-1009. https://doi.org/10.1038/bjc.1994.197

Using an RNAse protection assay, expression of messenger RNA for isoforms of TGF-beta was determined in a series of breast cancers. Of 50 tumours, 45 (90%) expressed TGF-beta 1 mRNA, 39 (78%) expressed TGF-beta 2, and 47 (94%) expressed TGF-beta 3. P...

Sequence of a Drosophila Ligand-Gated Ion-Channel Polypeptide with an Unusual Amino-Terminal Extracellular Domain (1994)
Journal Article
Harvey, R. J., Schmitt, B., Hermans-Borgmeyer, I., Gundelfinger, E. D., Betz, H., & Darlison, M. G. (1994). Sequence of a Drosophila Ligand-Gated Ion-Channel Polypeptide with an Unusual Amino-Terminal Extracellular Domain. Journal of Neurochemistry, 62(6), 2480-2483. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1471-4159.1994.62062480.x

Abstract: We report the isolation of a full-length clone from a Drosophila melanogaster head cDNA library that encodes a 614-residue polypeptide that exhibits all of the features of a ligand-gated chloride-channel/receptor subunit. This polypeptide,... Read More about Sequence of a Drosophila Ligand-Gated Ion-Channel Polypeptide with an Unusual Amino-Terminal Extracellular Domain.

The effects of work on food intake and ingestive behaviour of draught cattle and buffalo given barley straw (1994)
Journal Article
Pearson, R. A., & Smith, D. (1994). The effects of work on food intake and ingestive behaviour of draught cattle and buffalo given barley straw. Animal production, 58(03), 339-346. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0003356100007273

In the first experiment draught cattle and buffalo were worked for 5 h/day and/or given 17 h access to feed. In the second experiment they were worked for 4 h/day and/or given 20 h access to feed. When animals were prevented from feeding on barley st... Read More about The effects of work on food intake and ingestive behaviour of draught cattle and buffalo given barley straw.

Further Evidence for Clustering of Human GABAA Receptor Subunit Genes: Localization of the α6-Subunit Gene (GABRA6) to Distal Chromosome 5q by Linkage Analysis (1994)
Journal Article
Hicks, A. A., Bailey, M. E., Riley, B. P., Kamphuis, W., Siciliano, M. J., Johnson, K. J., & Darlison, M. G. (1994). Further Evidence for Clustering of Human GABAA Receptor Subunit Genes: Localization of the α6-Subunit Gene (GABRA6) to Distal Chromosome 5q by Linkage Analysis. Genomics, 20(2), 285-288. https://doi.org/10.1006/geno.1994.1167

GABAA receptors are hetero-oligomeric ion-channel complexes that are composed of combinations of α, β, γ, and δ subunits and play a major role in inhibitory neurotransmission in the mammalian brain. We report here a microsatellite polymorphism within...

Microbial metabolism of xenobiotics: Fundamental and applied research (1994)
Journal Article
Singleton, I. (1994). Microbial metabolism of xenobiotics: Fundamental and applied research. Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology, 59(1), 9-23. https://doi.org/10.1002/jctb.280590104

The ability of microorganisms to metabolise xenobiotic compounds has received much attention due to the environmental persistence and toxicity of these chemicals. The microbial degradation of xenobiotics is seen as a cost effective method of removing... Read More about Microbial metabolism of xenobiotics: Fundamental and applied research.

Alternative Splicing of a 51-Nucleotide Exon that Encodes a Putative Protein Kinase C Phosphorylation Site Generates Two Forms of the Chicken γ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptor β2 Subunit (1994)
Journal Article
Harvey, R. J., Chinchetru, M. A., & Darlison, M. G. (1994). Alternative Splicing of a 51-Nucleotide Exon that Encodes a Putative Protein Kinase C Phosphorylation Site Generates Two Forms of the Chicken γ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptor β2 Subunit. Journal of Neurochemistry, 62(1), 10-16. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1471-4159.1994.62010010.x

Complementary DNAs that encode two forms of the chicken -γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor β2 subunit have been isolated. These polypeptides differ by the presence (β2L) or absence (β2S) of 17 amino acids, which contain a possible target fo...
