    The ICVN published its first report in 1971. [6] For viruses infecting vertebrates, the first report included 19 genera, 2 families, and a further 24 unclassified groups. [7] The ICNV was renamed the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses in 1974. [6]

    The current (4th) edition of the Code (1999) was edited by seven people, [7] with work on the next (5th) edition underway. The Commission also provides rulings on individual problems brought to its attention, as arbitration may be necessary in contentious cases, where strict adherence to the Code would interfere with stability of usage (e.g ...

    [1] [2] It denotes the rules for naming taxa of bacteria, according to their relative rank. As such it is one of the nomenclature codes of biology. Originally the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature dealt with bacteria, and this kept references to bacteria until these were eliminated at the 1975 International Botanical Congress. An ...

    An international committee published recommendations for genetic symbols and nomenclature in 1957. [1] The need to develop formal guidelines for human gene names and symbols was recognized in the 1960s and full guidelines were issued in 1979 (Edinburgh Human Genome Meeting). [2]

    Designation and fixation have different meanings. A designation is the proposal of the type species. It is not necessary to have spelled the name of the genus or species correctly with correct authors (articles 67.2.1, 67.6, 67.7), type species are always the correctly spelled name. If the designation is valid, the type species is fixed.

    RNAIII is a stable 514 nt regulatory RNA transcribed by the P3 promoter of the Staphylococcus aureus quorum-sensing agr system [1] [2]).It is the major effector of the agr regulon, which controls the expression of many S. aureus genes encoding exoproteins and cell wall associated proteins plus others encoding regulatory proteins [3] [4] The RNAIII transcript also encodes the 26 amino acid δ ...

    A P1-derived artificial chromosome, or PAC, is a DNA construct derived from the DNA of P1 bacteriophages and Bacterial artificial chromosome.It can carry large amounts (about 100–300 kilobases) of other sequences for a variety of bioengineering purposes in bacteria.
