The ortholog of human ssDNA-binding protein SSBP3 influences neurodevelopment and autism-like behaviors in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> by Safa Salim (9186786)

“…Moreover, Ssdp overexpression led to differential changes in synaptic density in specific brain regions. We observed decreased levels of armadillo in the heads of Ssdp overexpressing flies, as well as a decrease in armadillo and wingless expression in the larval wing discs, implicating the involvement of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway in Ssdp functionality. …”

DNA methylation signature in peripheral blood reveals distinct characteristics of human X chromosome numerical aberrations by El Maarri, Osman

“…The X inactivation process appears to be less effective in Klinefelter syndrome as methylation on the X was decreased compared to normal female samples. In a large number of individuals, we verified several loci by pyrosequencing and observed only weak inter-loci correlations between the verified regions. …”

Whole-Genome Molecular Characterization and Typing of Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Lebanon by El Hassan, Sarah

“…For the first time, we detected an untypeable SCCmec cassette harboring multiple ccr complexes or missing some of the conserved genes. Using the SCCmecFinder, we were able to predict the mec cassettes and showed that the SSA11 harbored a pseudo-SCCmec element resembling the one detected SCCmec type IV(2B). …”
