SEVEN NEW CALLS: ********************************************************************* Subj: CALL: DNA-repair newsgroup? This message was originally submitted by hilde.nilsen@MTFS.UNIT.NO Does anyone know whether there exists newsgroups or other locations on the Internet wich is reserved for DNA-repair and DNA-repair related topics? IF Yes: please send med the adress IF No: Does anybody want to create one? ************************************************************************ Subj: Digested List OR UNDIGESTED LIST?? X-Sender: rmoldwin@midway.uchicago.edu Please state your opinion!! Personally, I don't like the digested form of the HUM-MOLGEN list. I am forced to read the whole message because the subject line contains no true subject. Can't it be changed to the regular E-mail format? I've been on on quite a few mailing lists, and none of them use digests as the exclusive format. Also, my E-mail reader can't correctly parse the messages. In its current form, I have to parse things by hand. Can we vote on this? Thanks for listening.. --Rich Richard Moldwin, M.D., Ph.D. Section of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology University of Chicago Hospitals Wyler Room C408, MC 4060 5841 S.

We would be interested in sharing resources in this area to develop a more complete physical map. ------------------------------------------------------------ Server protocol: HTTP/1.0 Remote host: 91.233.med.umich.edu Remote IP address: 141.214.233.91 ************************************************************************** From: IN%"godmilow@mail.med.upenn.edu" "Lynn Godmilow" 31-AUG-1995 15:22:24.38 To: IN%"ED-MOLGEN@nic.SURFnet.nl" "Multiple recipients of list ED-MOLGEN" CC: Subj: call-ataxia-telangiectasia godmilow@mail.med.upenn.edu (Lynn Godmilow) sent the following comments: ------------------------------------------------------------ Does anyone have any information on the gene structure of ATM?

I have therefore recently created The DNA Vaccine Web which covers the field of gene transfer, immunization, infectious diseases and immunology. This site will provide information to the specialist of course, but will also provide lay articles to give the broader public - scientific, commercial, legal and otherwise - a view of this emerging biological technology. The site is found at: http://www.genweb.com/Dnavax/dnavax.html This site is designed to give an introduction to DNA vaccines to the many immunologists and specialists in infectious diseases who are still somewhat unaware of this evolving field. On the site one will find protocols (that actually make the exper iments work), control plasmids (given out freely) to validate one's own DNA-based immunizing technique, references (linked to their Medline abstract), press releases, and links to other relevant sites concerning immunology, infectious diseases and vaccine s. I would appreciate having you consider linking The DNA Vaccine Web to your site since I believe it would benefit those who visit your site each day. Very best regards, Robert Whalen ------------------------------------------------------------ Server protocol: HTTP/1.0 Remote host: ad15-051.compuserve.com Remote IP address: 199.174.142.51 *************************************************************************** From: IN%"ED-MOLGEN@nic.SURFnet.nl" "Human Molecular Genetics Editors" 12-SEP-1995 09:13:14.01 To: IN%"ED-MOLGEN@nic.SURFnet.nl" "Multiple recipients of list ED-MOLGEN" CC: Subj: NMDA receptor primers? This message was originally submitted by mcbtayhn@LEONIS.NUS.SG to the HUM-MOLGEN list at NIC.SURFNET.NL. A friend of mine is interested in the possibility of examining human NMDA receptor polymorphisms by PCR of genomic DNA, and wants to know if primers have previously been described. I've tried searching the literature and found nothing. Does anyone have any information? Thanks.
