Patent application number | Description | Published |
20130337452 | Methods For Rapid Forensic Analysis Of Mitochondrial DNA - The present invention provides methods for rapid forensic analysis of mitochondrial DNA by amplification of a segment of mitochondrial DNA containing restriction sites, digesting the mitochondrial DNA segments with restriction enzymes, determining the molecular masses of the restriction fragments and comparing the molecular masses with the molecular masses of theoretical restriction digests of known mitochondrial DNA sequences stored in a database. | 12-19-2013 |
20140275216 | ALTERATION OF NEURONAL GENE EXPRESSION BY SYNTHETIC piRNAs AND BY ALTERATION OF piRNA FUNCTION - Provided herein are compositions and methods for the alteration of neuronal methylation by synthetic piRNAs or by alteration of piRNA function. Such alterations find use in the regulation and control of neural gene expression and concomitant neural functions. Further provided herein are systems and methods for the identification of target sites for regulation by piRNAs. | 09-18-2014 |
