Urinary orotic acid determination is a useful tool for screening hereditary orotic aciduria and for differentiating the hyperammonemia disorders which cannot be readily diagnosed by amino acid chromatography, thus reducing the need for enzyme determination in tissue biopsies. This review

Counterselection systems facilitate marker-free genetic modifications in microbes by enabling positive selections for both the introduction of a marker gene into the microbe and elimination of the marker from the microbe. Here we report a counterselection system for Geobacillus kaustophilus

Coordinated replication of eukaryotic genomes is intrinsically asymmetric, with continuous leading strand synthesis preceding discontinuous lagging strand synthesis. Here we provide two types of evidence indicating that, in fission yeast, these two biosynthetic tasks are performed by two different replicases.
