(author), Centraal Instituut voor Voedingsonderzoek TNO (author)In this paper, we describe the cloning and molecular characterization of the Aspergillus niger cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) gene, cprA. Attempts to clone the cprA gene by heterologous hybridization techniques were unsuccessful. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with degenerate primers based on conserved regions found in cpr genes from...article 1995

(author), Havekes, L.M. (author)Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) results from mutations in the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene. We applied denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) to screen for sequence variations in the coding and splice site consensus sequences of the LDLR gene. For amplification of each exon by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR),...article 1995

(author), Soria, C. (author), Caen, J.P. (author), Instituut voor verouderings- en vaatziekten onderzoek TNO (author)The molecular defect in the abnormal fibrinogen Dusart (Paris V) that is associated with thrombophilia was determined by sequence analysis of genomic DNA that had been amplified using the polymerase chain reaction. The propositus was heterozygous for a single base change (C → T) in the Aα- chain gene, resulting in the amino acid substitution Aα...article 1993

Lombardi, P. (author), Hoffer, M.J.V. (author), Top, B. (author), de Wit, E. (author), Gevers Leuven, J.A. (author), Frants, R.R. (author), Havekes, L.M. (author), Gaubius Instituut TNO (author)In this report, we describe the characterization of a mutation in the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene of a true homozygous familial hypercholesterolemic (FH) patient. The combined use of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and DNA sequence analysis revealed a unique A to G transition in the penultimate 3'-nucleotide of...article 1993

Leer, R.J. (author), van Luijk, N. (author), Posno, M. (author), Pouwels, P.H. (author), Medisch Biologisch Laboratorium TNO (author)The DNA sequences of a 2.4 kb plasmid (p353-2) from Lactobacillus pentosus MD353 and a 1.9 kb plasmid (p8014-2) from Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 8014 show 81.5% overall similarity. Both plasmids carry elements (replication protein gene, plus-origin and minus-origin of replication), which are typical of plasmids that replicate via a rolling...article 1992
