Description: Radiative lifetimes of 17 high-lying excited states in Rh I are measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. Out of these lifetimes, 13 are new and the remaining four confirm previous measurements. Furthermore, we report the first theoretical investigation of Rh I, where the radiative decay properties of all experimentally known levels below 47 000 cm –1 are calculated using a pseudo-relativistic Hartree–Fock method including core polarization effects. The theoretical calculations are found to be in very good agreement with the experimental results. A large set of new transition probabilities is presented for lines of astrophysical interest in the spectral range 2200–10 000 Å.

Description: Antisense transcription (transcription from the opposite strand to a protein-coding or sense strand) has been ascribed roles in gene regulation involving degradation of the corresponding sense transcripts (RNA interference), as well as gene silencing at the chromatin level. Global transcriptome analysis provides evidence that a large proportion of the genome can produce transcripts from both strands, and that antisense transcripts commonly link neighboring "genes" in complex loci into chains of linked transcriptional units. Expression profiling reveals frequent concordant regulation of sense/antisense pairs. We present experimental evidence that perturbation of an antisense RNA can alter the expression of sense messenger RNAs, suggesting that antisense transcription contributes to control of transcriptional outputs in mammals.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Katayama, S -- Tomaru, Y -- Kasukawa, T -- Waki, K -- Nakanishi, M -- Nakamura, M -- Nishida, H -- Yap, C C -- Suzuki, M -- Kawai, J -- Suzuki, H -- Carninci, P -- Hayashizaki, Y -- Wells, C -- Frith, M -- Ravasi, T -- Pang, K C -- Hallinan, J -- Mattick, J -- Hume, D A -- Lipovich, L -- Batalov, S -- Engstrom, P G -- Mizuno, Y -- Faghihi, M A -- Sandelin, A -- Chalk, A M -- Mottagui-Tabar, S -- Liang, Z -- Lenhard, B -- Wahlestedt, C -- RIKEN Genome Exploration Research Group -- Genome Science Group (Genome Network Project Core Group) -- FANTOM Consortium -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Sep 2;309(5740):1564-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory for Genome Exploration Research Group, RIKEN Genomic Sciences Centre (GSC), RIKEN Yokohama Institute, 1-7-22 Suehiro-cho, Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama, 230-0045, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16141073" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Description: Anaemia is a chief determinant of global ill health, contributing to cognitive impairment, growth retardation and impaired physical capacity. To understand further the genetic factors influencing red blood cells, we carried out a genome-wide association study of haemoglobin concentration and related parameters in up to 135,367 individuals. Here we identify 75 independent genetic loci associated with one or more red blood cell phenotypes at P 〈 10(-8), which together explain 4-9% of the phenotypic variance per trait. Using expression quantitative trait loci and bioinformatic strategies, we identify 121 candidate genes enriched in functions relevant to red blood cell biology. The candidate genes are expressed preferentially in red blood cell precursors, and 43 have haematopoietic phenotypes in Mus musculus or Drosophila melanogaster. Through open-chromatin and coding-variant analyses we identify potential causal genetic variants at 41 loci. Our findings provide extensive new insights into genetic mechanisms and biological pathways controlling red blood cell formation and function.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a
