We examined if ITGB1 (as the partner to ITGA9) functions as the primary integrin in mouse eggs that mediates egg interactions with ADAM2, and characterized the complement of integrin β subunits in mouse eggs.
We also characterized the complement of cell proteins that reflect indices of cell type and size.
To determine which changes in histone profiles observed in CLL patients are disease- or tissue-specific and which might be more generally indicative of a cancerous state, we characterized the complement of histone proteins in two solid tumor model systems.
The present study was designed to characterize the complement system and adaptive immune-inflammatory responses in a rat model of moderate BINT.
All subsequent experiments were performed using heat-inactivated FCS to further characterize the complement-independent mechanisms of MM cytotoxicity induced by PAb.
The server is a resulting collection of trees which characterize the full complement of evolutionary histories of all genes determined in a given genome.
Additionally, comprehensive proteomic analysis has been utilized to fully characterize the protein complement of amniotic fluid and of cervical-vaginal fluid.
Whole genome sequencing efforts have inspired the construction of large-scale gene family databases with the goal of characterizing the full complement of homologous families over a broad range of genomes (Crabtree et al., 2007; Heinicke et al., 2007; Tatusov et al., 2003; Wheeler et al., 2008).
For example, several independent studies have characterized the mutational complement of breast cancer, one of the most common human malignancies (Shah et al., 2009; Stephens et al., 2009; Ding et al., 2010; Banerji et al., 2012; Cancer Genome Atlas Network, 2012; Shah et al., 2012; Stephens et al., 2012).
In characterizing the chromosome complement of an organism, the high number that can be studied using flow cytometry allows for a statistically accurate analysis.
