In the present study we determined the optimal conditions for transferring DNA into rat and human brain tumor cell lines of glial and neuronal origin using electroporation as the transfection method. Gene transfer efficiency was measured in terms of transient chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT)

The tyrosinase family in vertebrates consists of three related melanogenic enzymes: tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1), and TRP-2. These proteins control melanin production in pigment cells and play a crucial role in determining vertebrate coloration. We have isolated a gene from the a
## Abstract Human T‐lymphocytes are long lived, easily accessible, mature, and capable of proliferation. They are theoretically a suitable target for retroviral mediated gene transfer. To test this hypothesis, normal human T‐cells obtained from bone marrow and peripheral blood were stimulated with
