Conservation of RET regulatory function from human to zebrafish without sequence similarity

S Fisher, EA Grice, RM Vinton, SL Bessling… - Science, 2006 - science.org
Evolutionary sequence conservation is an accepted criterion to identify noncoding regulatory
sequences. We have used a transposon-based transgenic assay in zebrafish to evaluate …

Mutations in the TGF-β repressor SKI cause Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome with aortic aneurysm

AJ Doyle, JJ Doyle, SL Bessling, S Maragh… - Nature …, 2012 - nature.com
Elevated transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis
of syndromic presentations of aortic aneurysm, including Marfan syndrome (MFS) and …

Evaluating the biological relevance of putative enhancers using Tol2 transposon-mediated transgenesis in zebrafish

S Fisher, EA Grice, RM Vinton, SL Bessling… - Nature protocols, 2006 - nature.com
Evaluating the biological relevance of the myriad putative regulatory noncoding sequences
in vertebrate genomes represents a huge challenge. Functional analyses in vivo have …

Observation of the top quark

…, A Bischoff, N Biswas, G Blazey, S Blessing… - Physical review …, 1995 - APS
The D0 Collaboration reports on a search for the standard model top quark in pp collisions at
s= 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron with an integrated luminosity of approximately 50 pb− 1…

[PDF][PDF] Functional loss of semaphorin 3C and/or semaphorin 3D and their epistatic interaction with ret are critical to Hirschsprung disease liability

…, Q Jiang, G Burzynski, K West, S Bessling… - The American Journal of …, 2015 - cell.com
Innervation of the gut is segmentally lost in Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), a consequence
of cell-autonomous and non-autonomous defects in enteric neuronal cell differentiation, …

The DØ detector

…, V Bezzubov, PC Bhat, G Blazey, S Blessing… - Nuclear Instruments and …, 1994 - Elsevier
… The DO detector has been constructed to study proton-antiproton collisions at v~'s =2 TeV
in the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The experiment was first provisionally approved in 1983 and …

The upgraded DØ detector

…, I Blackler, G Blazey, F Blekman, S Blessing… - Nuclear Instruments and …, 2006 - Elsevier
The DØ experiment enjoyed a very successful data-collection run at the Fermilab Tevatron
collider between 1992 and 1996. Since then, the detector has been upgraded to take …

Observation of single top-quark production

…, PC Bhat, V Bhatnagar, G Blazey, S Blessing… - Physical review …, 2009 - APS
We report observation of the electroweak production of single top quarks in pp collisions at s=
1.96 TeV based on 2.3 fb− 1 of data collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron …

Forward-backward asymmetry in top quark-antiquark production

…, PC Bhat, V Bhatnagar, G Blazey, S Blessing… - Physical Review D, 2011 - APS
We present a measurement of forward-backward asymmetry in top quark-antiquark production
in proton-antiproton collisions in the final state containing a lepton and at least four jets. …

Measurement of the forward-backward charge asymmetry in top-quark pair production

…, C Biscarat, G Blazey, F Blekman, S Blessing… - Physical review …, 2008 - APS
We present the first measurement of the integrated forward-backward charge asymmetry in
top-quark–top-antiquark pair (tt) production in proton-antiproton (pp) collisions in the lepton+ …
