## Communicated by Stephen Chanock Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in cancer initiation and development. Several polymorphisms in the promoters of a number of MMP genes, which can affect the respective MMP production in an allele-specific manner, have been well characterized.

The TRP4 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which encodes anthranilate phosphoribosyl transferase (E.C. 2.4.2.18), is subject to the general control of amino acid biosynthesis. The regulation takes place at the transcriptional level by increasing the amount of initiation and not by changing the stabi
Interindividual variation in the expression of the carcinogen- and estrogen-metabolizing enzymes cytochrome P4501B1 and 1A1 (CYP1B1 and CYP1A1) has been detected in human lung. To search for polymorphisms with functional consequences for CYP1B1 and CYP1A1 gene expression, we examined 1.5 kb of the p
Pre‐adipocyte factor‐1 (pref‐1), originally identified in mouse 3T3‐L1 pre‐adipocytes, is known to play a key role in inhibiting the adipose conversion. As a first step to study the involvement of the __PREF1__ gene in intramuscular adipose tissue development in cattle, which has an economic importa
