A Toll-like receptor–independent antiviral response induced by double-stranded B-form DNA

Both Sphingolipids and Cholesterol Participate in the Detergent Insolubility of Alkaline Phosphatase, a Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored Protein, in Mammalian Membranes

SPB-1, a Chinese hamster ovary cell variant defective in serine palmitoyltransferase activity for sphingolipid synthesis, provides a useful system for studying the effects of sp...

Both episomal and integrated forms of human papillomavirus type 16 are involved in invasive cervical cancers

The form of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV 16)DNA in specimens of invasive cervical cancer was investigated. High molecular, tandem repeats of viral sequences were detected a...

Analysis of integrated human papillomavirus type 16 DNA in cervical cancers: amplification of viral sequences together with cellular flanking sequences

We have isolated four clones of integrated human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) DNA from four different primary cervical cancer specimens. All clones were found to be monomeric...
