MUCOSAL TRANSMISSIBILITY, DISEASE INDUCTION AND CORECEPTOR SWITCHING OF R5 SHIVSF162P3N MOLECULAR CLONES IN RHESUS MACAQUES

Mucosal transmissibility, disease induction and coreceptor switching of R5 SHIVSF162P3N molecular clones in rhesus macaques

Abstract Background Mucosally transmissible and pathogenic CCR5 (R5)-tropic simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) molecular clones are useful reagents to identity neutralization escape in HIV-1 vaccine experiments and to study the envelope evolutionary process and mechanistic basis for coreceptor switch during the course of natural infection.R

Ethylene represses the promoting influence of cytokinin on cell division and expansion of cotyledons in etiolated Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings

The plant hormones ethylene and cytokinin influence many processes; sometimes Peels they act cooperatively, other times antagonistically.To study their antagonistic interaction, we used the cotyledons of etiolated, intact seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana.We focused on cell division and expansion, because both processes are quantified readily in pa
