Inhibitors of protein-processivity factor
Harvard investigators have discovered that Pol interacts with a processivity factor at a site that is distinct from sites of normal interaction between known Pol family members and other cellular factors. Unlike most protein-protein interactions,…

Method for producing site-specific recombination of DNA in a transgenic non-human mammal at chromosomal regions containing Flp-recognition sites
A method is disclosed for producing site-specific recombination of DNA in a transgenic non-human mammal at chromosomal regions containing Flp-recognition sites (e.g., a DNA sequence containing an FRT site). The invention in particular discloses the…

Homozygous IKKepsilon knockout mouse as an animal model for influenza virus infection
Homozygous IKKepsilon (inhibitor of kappaB kinase epsilon) mutant mice are used as animal models for influenza virus infection. Homozygous deletion results in a complete loss of the endogenous kinase function in lung, spleen, and embryonic…
