ChIPs of the beta-globin locus: unraveling gene regulation within an active domain.

Recent studies of beta-globin gene expression have concentrated on the analysis of factor binding and chromatin structure within the endogenous locus. These studies have more precisely defined the extent and nature of the active chromosomal domain and the elements that organize it. Surprisingly, the beta-globin locus control region (LCR), although critical for high-level gene expression, plays little role in the overall architecture of the active locus. Analysis of the effects of targeted deletion of the beta-globin LCR, along with emerging knowledge of the behavior of the erythroid transcription factor NF-E2, leads to a new perspective on factor binding and LCR function.

Chipping away at brain function: mining for insights with microarrays.

The impact of microarray studies on neurobiology has been limited because, with the exception of a few outstanding papers, most reports provide little more than lists of genes, often leaving the reader at a loss to understand which and how many of the identified transcripts will be true positives with significant biological impact. However, some recent papers have offered considerable biological insight by providing independent in vivo confirmation of the roles of candidate genes, offering a glimpse of the potential power of microarrays in neurobiological research.

An array of insights: application of DNA chip technology in the study of cell biology.

The advent of DNA microarray technology has ushered in an era of systems biology whereby researchers can study the transcriptional behavior of thousands of genes in parallel. Advances in manufacturing techniques and informatics, and the availability of several genome sequences have furthered these capabilities to the point where whole-transcriptome studies can be accomplished in yeast, flies and plants, and soon will be possible in mammals. Concomitant with the expanding ability of the technology has been the development of novel techniques and their application towards the study of cellular biology.

Chip fractures of the first metatarsal head. Primary fragment excision versus immobilization: a report of four cases.

Four cases of a distal lateral impaction fracture of the first metatarsal are presented. Two treatment schemes were implemented. In two of the patients the fracture fragment was removed early. The other two patients had either percutaneous pinning or a weightbearing cast Each case discusses the rationale for the selected treatment as well as the clinical outcome. All four patients ultimately had successful retums to full activity with a more immediate return to exercise for the two patients with excised fracture fragments (6-week difference).

Chips with everything: DNA microarrays in infectious diseases.

Two developments are set to revolutionise research in and clinical management of infectious diseases. First, the completion of the human genome project together with the sequencing of many pathogen genomes, and second, the development of microarray technology. This review explains the principles underlying DNA microarrays and highlights the uses to which they are being put to investigate the molecular basis of infectious diseases. Pathogen studies enable identification of both known and novel organisms, understanding of genetic evolution, and investigation of determinants of pathogenicity. Host studies show the complexities of development and activation of both innate and adaptive immunity. Host-pathogen studies allow global analysis of gene expression during pathogenesis. Microarray technology will accelerate our understanding of the complex genetic processes underlying the interaction between microorganisms and the host, with consequent improvements in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases.

Monoclonal antibody--gold biosensor chips for detection of depurinating carcinogen--DNA adducts by fluorescence line-narrowing spectroscopy.

A new direct readout methodology for detection and quantitation of fluorescent carcinogen-DNA adducts is described. It combines the binding specificity of an immobilized monoclonal antibody (MAb) with high-resolution, low-temperature fluorescence spectroscopy. The MAb, which is covalently bound to a gold surface via a chemisorbed disulfide coupling agent, binds the adduct of interest in an aqueous sample. Laser-induced fluorescence under nonline narrowing (FNLN) and line-narrowing (FLN) conditions was used to detect (benzo[a]pyren-6-yl)guanine (BP-6-N7Gua) bound to immobilized MAb. At room temperature, the BP-6-N7Gua fluorescence was not detected, most likely because of quenching by the gold surface and/or efficient dynamical quenching. However, fluorescence was observed at room temperature when the surface was covered with a thin layer of glycerol, and possible reasons for the fluorescence enhancement are considered. Lowering of the temperature to 77 K led to nearly an order of magnitude increase in fluorescence intensity. Highly structured FLN spectra obtained at 4.2 K allowed for definitive adduct identification. The potential of this methodology for risk assessments of individuals exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is discussed.
