DNA Libraries
New DNA libraries study findings have been published by scientists at Sichuan University
December 12th, 2008
According to recent research from Chengdu, People's Republic of China, "Coagulation factor IX (FIX) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease, which plays a key role in the coagulation cascade. The rhesus monkey may be an indispensable substitute for humans in research of pig-to-human xenotransplantation, due to its close relationship." "But the coagulation function concordance between rhesus monkey and human is unknown. In this study, we cloned the full-length cDNA of rhesus monkey FIX (rFIX) to investigate the genomic backgrounds of the coagulation systems. We cloned the full-length cDNA from the cDNA library of rhesus monkey liver tissue. Polymerase chain reaction was...
