Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSOME FEATURES OF HYDROLYSIS OF THE HYBRID B-Z-FORM DNA BY SERRATIA MARCESCENS NUCLEASEMaria Filimonova, Valentina Gubskaya, Il’dus NuretdinovHighly polymerized herring testis DNA of the random nucleotide sequence was used as a model of natural substrate to study some features of hydrolysis of the hybrid B-Z form with Serratia marcescens nuclease. The hybrid B-Z-form was formed upon addition of 1.15 M MgSO4 and 0.421 mM Co(NH3)6Cl3. The DNA transition from the right handed B-form to the hybrid B-Z-form … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 25 Jul 2014 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFLOW CYTOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF NUCLEAR DNA BETWEEN OKRA LANDRACES (ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS L.)Naser M. SalamehOkra Abelmoschus esculentus L. (Moench), is an economically important vegetable crop grown in tropical and sub-tropical as well as Mediterranean countries. The genome size of the Abelmoschus genus species is still rare. Ploidy determinations have traditionally been done by counting chromosomes of stained root tips, but this method is laborious and often difficult with species which have small chromosomes and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Feb 2014 · 8,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINHIBITORY ACTIVITY OF POTENTOX AGAINST DNA GYRASE OF ENTEROBACTERIACEAEManu Chaudhary, Anurag PayasiDNA gyrase, a type II topoisomerase catalyzes the supercoiling of relaxed closed circular DNA. In this report we evaluated the in vitro inhibitory effect of non antibiotic adjuvant compounds disodium edetate and sodium citrate against supercoiling activity of bacterial DNA gyrase. Further, we assessed the effect of different drugs alone and in combination with one or more adjuvants in overcoming … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2014 · 7,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRANDOMLY 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 accessEvery word in the titleAn Efficient Distributed Bioinformatics Computing System for DNA Sequence Analysis on Encoding SystemMohammad Ibrahim Khan, Chotan SheelThis study provides an effective design of search technique of a distributed bioinformatics computing system for analysis of DNA sequences using OPTSDNA algorithm. This system could be used for disease detection, criminal forensic analysis, gene prediction, genetic system and protein analysis. Different types of distributed algorithms for the search and identification for DNA segments and repeat pattern in a given … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2013 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleZinc Phosphide Induced DNA Damage in the Blood Cells of Gallus sp. using Comet DNA AssayK. A. Muid, R. M. Shahjahan, R. Begum, R. A. BegumProblem statement: The comet DNA assay is considered a suitable and rapid test for DNA-damaging potential in environmental and biomonitoring studies. Approach: During the study comets were analyzed as a measure of DNA damage to quantify the damage in the blood cells of fowls (Gallus sp.) after exposure to Zinc Phosphide (Zn3P2). Here the potential for DNA strand breaks by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction of Barbodes spp. in ThailandKeeravit Petjul, Aphidech Sangdee, Bungorn Thaewnon-ngiwProblem statement: The genetic diversity of Barbodes species in Thailand is presently unavailable. The objectives of this study were to study external morphology and genetic diversity using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR) of three Barbodes species; Barbodes altus, B. gonionotus and Barbodes sp. Approach: Two of twelve screened decanucleotide primers (OPA07 and UBC122), were selected for the genetic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 8,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRadiation Induced DNA Double Strand Break Studies of a Metal Sensitive Novel Bacterial Isolate from East Calcutta WetlandSanhita Chowdhury, Anindita Chakraborty, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriProblem statement: This study was an attempt to isolate anaerobic microbes with potential for DNA double strand break repair using methanogen specific medium (DSMZ 120) from East Calcutta Wetland in India. It also intended to verify the specificity of the medium for isolation of the desired family of microbe. Approach: Culture based technique was used to obtain the pure isolate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDNA Code Word Design for DNA Computing with Real-Time Polymerase Chain ReactionMuhammad Faiz Mohamed Saaid, Zuwairie Ibrahim, Mohamad Shukri Zainal Abidin et al.Problem statement: A number of DNA computing models to solve mathematical graph problem such as the Hamiltonian Path Problem (HPP), Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and the Shortest Path Problem (SPP), have been proposed and demonstrated. Normally, the DNA sequences used for the computation should be critically designed in order to reduce error that could occur during a computation.
