Lefebvre, V., H. North et al. (2006). Functional analysis of Arabidopsis NCED6 and NCED9 genes indicates that ABA synthesized in the endosperm is involved in the induction of seed dormancy. Plant J. 45(3) 309-319. 

Some patients with familial hypercholesterolemia produce a truncated form of the LDL receptor, termed the Lebanese allele, which lacks three of the five domains of the protein and causes it to be retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. Analysis of the mutant gene indicated that the sequence of the protein was normal up to the point where it terminated. 

The close correlation between tumor formation and mutations of the p53 gene indicates that the p53 protein has a central function in tumor pathogenesis. Thanks to... 

Model for the regulation of enzymes of the GAL system, (a) Three structural genes synthesize distinct mRNAs and enzymes (transferase, epimerase, and kinase). Arrows next to the genes indicate the direction of transcription. Synthesis requires the GAL4 protein. However, it is inactive in the absence of inducer because of complex formation with the GAL80 protein. The GAL80 protein does not...
