Background Although HIV self-testing strategies have been recommended by the World Health
Organization, HIV self-tests are not yet approved in Canada. Currently approved HIV self-…

Mutations in the MSS1 gene render the yeast cells respiratory deficient only in the presence
of the P R 454 mutation (paromomycin resistance) in the mitochondrial 15 S ribosomal RNA …

Background: Sex-specific issues have not been extensively addressed in studies of HIV
prevalence, despite the strong implications of differences between men and women in the risk of …

We describe a simple method for characterizing a frequent polymorphism (that subsitutes
an arginine for a proline) in the coding sequence of the Tp53 gene in patients with colonic …

Background Self testing for HIV is a targeted intervention with the potential to increase the
access, uptake and frequency of HIV testing and more effectively reach the undiagnosed, …

Dendritic cells (DCs) modulate B-cell survival and differentiation, mainly through production
of growth factors such as B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS; also known as “B-cell factor …

Familial adenomatous polyposis is a rare disease inherited in a Mendelian dominant fashion.
It is characterized by the occurrence of more than 100 adenomatous polyps in the large …

The nucleotide sequence of a 5 kb EcoRI‐NcoI fragment of chromosome IV, contiguous to
gene POL3 (CDC2), has been determined. It contains three open reading frames: QRI1, QRI2 …

The EF5.44 locus is in close proximity to the chromosome 5 region to which the genetic defect
responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis has been mapped. We have devised two …

G p phase transition around 440 K. The CY phase shows a rather abrupt spin transition
centered around 335 K with a thermal hysteresis of about 20 K. The p phase is metastable at …
