Exploring transcription patterns and regulatory motifs in Arabidopsis thaliana
Recent work has shown that bidirectional genes (genes located on opposite strands of DNA, whose transcription start sites are not more than 1000 basepairs apart) are often co-expressed and have similar biological functions. Identification of such genes can be useful in the process of constructing …

Functional investigation of the role of the retinoblastoma protein in genome stability
… to the pRB gene, RB1, can arise late in tumorigenesis in cancer cells whose cell cycle regulation is already compromised by another mutation. This suggests that pRB’s functions in genome stability could underlie cancer relevant characteristics that are independent of its ability to negatively …
