The values for each gene have been adjusted to a mean of zero and a variance of one to facilitate comparisons between genes, and values > 1 (or < -1) have been adjusted to 1 (or -1), increasing the contrast of the images.
In order to improve the annotation and facilitate further research, it is essential that we develop methods to identify genes correctly.
Unfortunately, naive lymphocytes are not susceptible to infection with adenoviruses due to lack of detectable expression of a viral receptor, such as the coxsackie/adenovirus receptor (CAR), which is required for efficient viral attachment [ 8 9 10 ] . The CAR protein contains two extra-cellular immunoglobulin-like (Ig) domains, the first of which appears sufficient for binding to the adenoviral fiber knob protein [ 11 12 ] . Expression of either human or murine CAR in various cell lines has been shown to facilitate gene transfer by recombinant human adenoviruses [ 8 9 10 13 ] . Stable transfection of transformed murine B and T cells lines with human CAR (hCAR) lacking its cytoplasmic domain rendered them susceptible to adenoviral transfection, establishing that lymphoid cells can be permissive hosts for adenoviral transduction and demonstrating that the cytoplasmic domain of CAR is not required for viral entry [ 13 ] . More recently, mice transgenic for full length [ 14 ] or truncated hCAR [ 15 ] have been described in which adenoviral transduction of primary lymphocytes has been demonstrated.
Model experiments with Xenopus oocytes injected with AQP cRNA have amply confirmed that many AQPs do facilitate water movement.
At LBNL we developed two custom assembly programs, assembleSubclone.pl and deconstruct.pl to facilitate resolution of tandem repeats.
