As scientists unravel the human genetic code, they are discovering a host of genes and proteins produced by those genes involved in disease.
Scientists have uncovered a host of genes linked to a rare type of cancer that disproportionately affects children and young adults.
The PR-1 gene family was the first identified among a host of genes involved in plant defense against pathogens, including oomycetes and fungi.
The host of gene-targeted mutant mice developed for functional genomic studies has overshadowed application of human xenograft cancer models in some arenas recently [40].
The cell cycle is a highly coordinated process, which involves expression of a host of genes in the different cell cycle phases.
