Sentence examples for expression of cry from inspiring English sources
So far, knowledge about the evolution, phylogeny, and expression of cry genes is still scarce.
In order to reveal evolutionary events such as a division of function among ohnologs, we investigated the expression of cry transcript in 5-day-old zebrafish larvae.
The insecticidal activity of the Cry proteins provides an alternative and attractive approach for pest management through the expression of Cry proteins in transgenic plants.
In the latest years, advances in genetic engineering led to the development of plants that present resistance to insects through expression of cry genes from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), a soil Gram-positive bacteria.
Because Crys might be involved in both visual and nonvisual processes that take place in the retina, we focused specifically on the eye and investigated the expression of cry genes in zebrafish eyes over a period of 24 h.
In this clockwork, a pair of transcription factors, CLOCK and BMAL1, drive the expression of CRYs, Periods (PERs), and other clock-controlled genes, while CRYs and PERs heterodimerize and repress their own gene expression by inhibiting CLOCK-BMAL1-mediated transcription.
The presented expression analysis of cry genes in zebrafish eyes forms the basis for a detailed analysis of Cryptochrome function in light-dependent DNA-repair, light sensing, and the circadian clock.
The developmental expression of the cry genes is summarized in table 3.
As zebrafish possess at least one representative of each Cryptochrome and as this organism, due to its genomic and genetic resources, emerges as a useful model to study the fate of genes throughout evolution, we analyzed the expression of each cry transcript in larval zebrafish.
The authors found altered circadian rhythm of melatonin secretion, decreased expression of both Cry-1 and Per-2, and high levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in septic patients.
Likewise, the expression of L-cry in the same oval-shaped posterior medial forebrain domains, along with the presented functional data, are consistent with L-Cry serving as a possible light sensor for the Platynereis circadian clock.
