Provision of positive and negative selections in retroviral vectors containing the cytosine deaminase gene (1998)
Journal Article

The E. coli cytosine deaminase (CD) provides a negative selection system for suicide gene therapy as CD transfectants are eliminated following 5-fluorocytosine (5FC) treatment. Here we report a positive selection system for the CD gene using 5-fluoro...

On the initial-final mass relation and maximum mass of white dwarf progenitors (1997)
Journal Article

The four white dwarfs (WDs) discovered in the young open cluster NGC 2516 are crucial in defining the shape of the initial-final mass relation (IFMR) and upper mass limit for WD progenitors (Mwd). The cluster metallicity has been recently determined... Read More about On the initial-final mass relation and maximum mass of white dwarf progenitors.
