Project description:Soybean nested association mapping (NAM) parent lines were compared by CGH to catalog structurally variant (e.g. deletion and duplication) regions among these genotypes. The CGH comparisons reveal reveal putative deletions and duplications among the 41 lines. NAM parent lines were compared through a common reference, Wm82-ISU-01 (this is a sub-line isolated from the cultivar Williams 82 stock). Each NAM parent line was represented by a single individual plant. The reported values show the log2 ratio of the normalized NAM parent line hybridization signals (Cy3) over the normalized Wm82-ISU-01 hybridization signal (Cy5).
Project description:MLS000408882-01 and MLS000573813-01 were identified through a cell based screen that measures the reactivation of an epigenetically silenced transgene. MLS000408882-01 and MLS000573813-01 shows selectivity for cancer vs. normal cells affecting both transcriptional patterns and cell viability in a cancer specific manner.
Project description:Leojaponin (2), a labdane diterpene, was isolated from the EtOH extract of the herb of Leonurus japonicus together with a new halimane diterpene named isoleojaponin (1). Isoleojaponin has a new diterpene skeleton with a unique cross-conjugated ?,?-unsaturated ketone system, Their structures were elucidated by physical and spectroscopic analysis, and the relative configuration of the chiral C-9 carbon was determined by a computational method, and analysis of its possible biogenesis pathways.
