  • Method for determination of anabolic activity
    Publication number: 20060045847
    Abstract: Novel methods for determining the anabolic activity of a compound in muscle using microarrays to compare the in vivo changes of the genomic profile of mammalian muscle induced by a tested compound versus the corresponding changes induced by a known anabolic steroid. For example, in vivo changes of the genomic profile in the mouse induced by a tested compound may be compared to the genomic profile changes induced by the androgenic and anabolic steroid dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

  • Brassica regulatory sequence for root-specific or root-abundant gene expression
    Patent number: 5401836
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an isolated promoter element that exhibits root abundant expression in Brassica sp. The promoter element has particular utility in driving the transcription of heterologous structural proteins that confer disease immunity or resistance to disease susceptible roots. The word "disease" encompasses any adverse condition caused to a plant by an organism other than itself, such as fungi, bacteria, and insects. Plasmids incorporating the promoter are disclosed.
