Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForensic Relationship between ATP6 Gene and Sperm Motility in a Saudi PopulationSafa A.M. Elsanousi, Murid Javed, Hamad Sufyan, Sayed A.M. AmerApproximately 600 bp of ATP synthase subunit 6 mitochondrial gene (ATP6) were amplified and sequenced for 110 semen samples collected from infertile and normal Saudi men inhabiting Riyadh province. These data were analyzed in order to identify the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with male infertility. Six silent substitutions G8697A, G8856A, T8889C, T8952C, C9075T and C9060A were recorded with one … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2020 · 7,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractK121Q Polymorphism of the ENPP1 Gene is Related to Acute Coronary Syndrome in Ukrainian Patients with Normal but not Enhanced Body Mass IndexInna A. Rozumenko, Victoria Y. Garbusova, Yurij A. Ataman et al.Ectonucleotide Pyrophosphatase Phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) is a class II membrane glycoprotein with two unrelated properties: It can hydrolyze extracellular nucleotides and downregulate insulin receptor signaling. The present study was carried out to investigate whether common single-nucleotide polymorphism K121Q (rs1044498) of the ENPP1 gene is associated with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in the representatives of Ukrainian population and to assess if … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 15 Jan 2015 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLEUKOTRIENE C4 SYNTHASE AND LEUKOTRIENE RECEPTOR-1 GENES POLYMORPHISM AMONG ATOPIC ASTHMATIC PATIENTSHeba M. Kadry, Amal H. Atta, Mostafa K. Sultan, Nagwa A. El-BazAsthma is a complex polygenic disease in which Cysteinyl Leukotrienes (Cys-LTs) are a potential risk factors causing airway inflammation and remodeling, which are characteristics of asthma. The polymorphisms in the leukotriene C4 synthase -444A/C and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor1 927 T/C genes has been implicated in susceptibility to asthma. The objective of this study was to analyse two different polymorphisms, LTC4S-444 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 5 May 2014 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRANDOMLY AMPLIFIED POLYMORPHIC DNA-A BRIEF REVIEWNandani Kumari, Saroj Kumar ThakurRAPD is a PCR based technique which involves the use of single arbitrary short primers (8-12 nucleotides), resulting in the amplification of many discrete DNA. The segments of DNA that are amplified are random. The technique was developed independently by two different laboratories and called as RAPD and AP-PCR (Arbitrary Primed PCR). This procedure detects nucleotide sequence polymorphisms in a … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2014 · 17,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Consequences of the Polymorphism Q223R in the Human Leptin Receptor: A Molecular Dynamics StudyJonathan P. Carrillo-Vázquez, Brenda Chimal-Vega, Beatriz Zamora-López et al.Leptin Receptor (LEPR) is a component of a signaling pathway related to appetite and energy expenditure. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of Leptin receptor gene (lepr) have been proposed as possible modulator of adipose tissue and body weight. The main phenomenological consequence reported of these SNPs is the modulation of the LEP-LEPR interaction promoting the weight gain. Particularly, Q223R polymorphism has … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Determination of Disease Associated Differences in Haplotype BlocksIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: While experimental ascertainment of haplotype blocks in the genome-scale case-control studies is expensive, accurate computational phasing is still a daunting task for bioinformatics approaches. We used a statistical method to determine differences, potentially associated with a certain disease, in linkage disequilibrium block boundaries in whole-genome Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) data. Approach: We utilized a Bayesian model for calculating … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 8,423 accessesView PDFCite
