A comparative study of Tam3 and Ac transposition in transgenic tobacco and petunia plants [PDF]
Transposition of the Anthirrinum majus Tam3 element and the Zea mays Ac element has been monitored in petunia and tobacco plants. Plant vectors were constructed with the transposable elements cloned into the leader sequence of a marker gene ...

Human gene copy number spectra analysis in congenital heart malformations [PDF]
The clinical significance of copy number variants (CNVs) in congenital heart disease (CHD) continues to be a challenge. Although CNVs including genes can confer disease risk, relationships between gene dosage and phenotype are still being defined.

Low frequency of ESRRA-C11orf20 fusion gene in ovarian carcinomas.
The identification of recurrent gene fusions in common epithelial cancers--for example, TMPRSS2/ERG in prostate cancer and EML4/ALK in nonsmall cell lung carcinomas--has raised the question of whether fusion genes are pathogenetically important also in ...

Determining the Frequency of Genes Producing Colicins Ia and V in Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Clinical Samples of Medical Centers in Yazd City [PDF]
Introduction: Bacteriocins are peptides with antimicrobial properties. They are ribosomally synthesized and produced by both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The bacteriocins produced by Escherichia coli are called colicins.

ANALYSES OF GENE FREQUENCIES OF MATES [PDF]
ABSTRACT A genic analysis of variance of data on mate pairs for a codominant gene is developed. This analysis provides estimators of the correlation, F, of genes within individuals, of the correlation, Θ, of genes between mates, and of various variances-all relative to the correlation or variation among genes of nonmates.

The infinitely many genes model with horizontal gene transfer
The genome of bacterial species is much more flexible than that of eukaryotes. Moreover, the distributed genome hypothesis for bacteria states that the total number of genes present in a bacterial population is greater than the genome of every single ...

PCR Based Genotyping of Lulu Cattle of Nepal for A1, A2 Type Beta-caseins [PDF]
Lulu is an indigenous breed of cattle (Bos taurus) found in high altitude regions of western Nepal. Population of Lulu cattle has been declining due to introgression with other exotic breeds to increase milk productivity.

Efficient Gene Targeting Mediated by Adeno-Associated Virus and DNA Double-Strand Breaks [PDF]
Gene targeting is the in situ manipulation of the sequence of an endogenous gene by the introduction of homologous exogenous DNA. Presently, the rate of gene targeting is too low for it to be broadly used in mammalian somatic cell genetics or to cure ...
