Globally, wheat is the most widely grown crop and one of the three most important crops for human and livestock feed. However, the complex nature of the wheat genome has, until recently, resulted in a lack of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based ...

Pharmacogenetics: Role of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
Genome sequencing methods have basically similar algorithms, although they show a few differences between the platforms. The human genome contains approximately three billion base pairs, and this amount is huge and therefore impossible to sequence at one step. However, this amount is not a problem for developed technology.

Genome sequencing of a Hevea brasiliensis for single nucleotide polymorphism discovery [PDF]
The rubber tree (Hevea spp.), is the primary plant used in natural rubber production. Historically, the breeding of rubber trees has been based on techniques involving statistics and quantitative genetic approaches to determine the best genotypes to be ...

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 single nucleotide polymorphism Gly388Arg in head and neck carcinomas [PDF]
BACKGROUND Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is considered to be a progressive disease resulting from alterations in multiple genes regulating cell proliferation and differentiation like receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and members of the ...

Single nucleotide polymorphisms as a prerequisite for autoantigens [PDF]
AbstractIt is still elusive why certain self proteins induce an autoimmune response. One immunological hypothesis is that only modified or altered self‐proteins may become a target. Thus, we asked whether such alterations may actually be genetic polymorphisms that can be revealed by analyzing sequence variability in the known human autoantigens. Indeed,

High-density SNP association study of the 17q21 chromosomal region linked to autism identifies CACNA1G as a novel candidate gene. [PDF]
Chromosome 17q11-q21 is a region of the genome likely to harbor susceptibility to autism (MIM(209850)) based on earlier evidence of linkage to the disorder.

Association of rs2075650 polymorphism of tomm40 gene with type 2 diabetes in Dilijan city, Iran [PDF]
Background and Aim: The tomm40 gene encodes the Tomm40 protein, which is a translocase in the mitochondrial outer membrane. Changes in the tomm40 gene can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction. In this study, the association between rs2075650 polymorphism of

Polymorphisms of melatonin receptor genes and their associations with egg production traits in Shaoxing duck [PDF]
Objective In birds, three types of melatonin receptors (MTNR1A, MTNR1B, and MTNR1C) have been cloned. Previous researches have showed that three melatonin receptors played an essential role in reproduction and ovarian physiology. However, the association

Single nucleotide polymorphisms of the fukutin gene [PDF]
Mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes nuclear lamins A and C, underlie both Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EMD2) and Dunnigan-type familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD). This indicates that one gene can cause different phenotypes characterized by tissue degeneration. The gene for one form of Berardinelli-Seip-type congenital total lipodystrophy

Cholesterol Ester Transfer Protein Taq1B Polymorphism and Its Association with Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients Undergoing Angiography in Yazd, Eastern Iran: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Background: Several studies assessed the relationship between the cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) Taq1B gene polymorphism (rs708272) with risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, their findings were inconsistent.
