Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Characterization of Kazakh Native Sheep Breeds Using Mitochondrial DNAIlmira Mukhametzharova, Yessenbay Islamov, Saukymbek Shauyenov et al.In this study, we used mitochondrial (mt) DNA to reveal patterns of genetic diversity among six breeds of sheep native to Kazakhstan, including the Chu and Kalchengel types of Kazakh mutton-semifine-wool breed of sheep, Akzhayik, Edilbay, Kazakh fat-rumped semi-course-wool and South Kazakh Merino breeds. Mitochondrial DNA D-loop was studied in 64 samples to determine the genetic diversity of the local … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 7 Sep 2018 · 8,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Genomics of Domesticated and Wild Sunflower: Complete Chloroplast and Mitochondrial GenomesM. S. Makarenko, A. V. Usatov, N. V. Markin et al.The entire chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes of domesticated and wild type sunflower were sequenced. The comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes revealed 43 variant sites, including 21 polymorphic SSR loci and 22 SNPs. About 14 variant sites were found by collation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), among them 4 SSRs, 8 SNPs and 2 deletions. About 9 SNPs were located in coding … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2016 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Study of Energy Related Mitochondrial Genes in Arabian and Bactrian CamelsMohamed M. Ahmed, Samir A. El-Shazly, Samy M. Sayed, Sayed A.M. AmerThe single-humped camel, Camelus dromedaries inhabiting Afro-Arabia and the double-humped camel, Camelus bactrianus inhabiting central Asia are the only species in their genus. The present study aimed to amplify and partially sequence the mitochondrial DNA genes encoding for NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1, cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1, ATP synthase subunit 6 (ATP6), cytochrome b and displacement region (d-loop) in the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 7,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Porcine Mitochondrial Transcription Factor a Gene: Molecular Characterization, Radiation Hybrid Mapping and Genetic Diversity among 12 Pig BreedsTanja Kunej, Xiao-Lin Wu, Jennifer J. Michal et al.Problem statement: Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is a nucleus-encoded protein that is a key activator of mitochondrial transcription as well as a major participant in mitochondrial genome replication. Genomic characterization of the porcine TFAM gene is, therefore, necessary to determine its involvement in regulation of fat depots and meat quality traits in pigs. Approach: Genomic DNA sequence was determined … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreliminary Study of Phylogenetic Relationship of Rice Field Chironomidae (Diptera) Inferred From DNA Sequences of Mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit ISalman A. Al-Shami, M.N. Siti Azizah, Che Salmah Md Rawi, Abu Hassan AhmadProblem statement: Chironomidae have been recorded in rice fields throughout the world including in many countries such as India, Australia and the USA. Although some studies provide the key to genera level and note the difficulty of identifying the larvae to species level. Chironomid researches have been hindered because of difficulties in specimen preparation, identification, morphology and literature. Systematics, phylogenetics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMitochondrial Energy-Deficient Endophenotype in AutismJ. Jay Gargus, Faiqa ImtiazWhile evidence points to a multigenic etiology of most autism, the pathophysiology of the disorder has yet to be defined and the underlying genes and biochemical pathways they subserve remain unknown. Autism is considered to be influenced by a combination of various genetic, environmental and immunological factors; more recently, evidence has suggested that increased vulnerability to oxidative stress may be … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 11,507 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCardiolipin in Pathology: Implications in AtherosclerosisAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov, Anton Yuvenalievich Postnov et al.Mitochondria are cell organelles whose main role is to generate the energy needed for cell biochemical reactions via oxidative phosphorylation. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid that is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane and other energy-transducing membranes. Mitochondrial structure largely depends on cardiolipin, as it is involved in the biogenesis of mitochondrial cristae, folds in the inner mitochondrial membrane designed to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 23 Sep 2023 · 4,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNeuronal Functions of Protein Phosphatase 2AHung-Tat Leung, Ning WangReversible protein phosphorylation is a common and important form of protein posttranslational modification which determines the proteins’ activities, substrate specificity and inhibitions or degradations, depending on the specific amino acid residue, or combination of residues, being targeted. While protein phosphorylations by kinases have been well studied, the importance of protein dephosphorylation by phosphatases has emerged over the past two decades … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Apr 2014 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite

The tradition plant is the population used as the alternative medicine in cancer therapy. Due to, P. taxodiifolius is medicinal Thai plant which is used as diuretic drug which has never been explored as the anticancer activities. Approach: Air-dried powder of P. taxodiifolius leaves and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBridging from Cells to Cognition in Autism Pathophysiology: Biological Pathways to Defective Brain Function and PlasticityMatthew P. Anderson, Brian S. Hooker, Martha R. HerbertWe review evidence to support a model where the disease process underlying autism may begin when an in utero or early postnatal environmental, infectious, seizure, or autoimmune insult triggers an immune response that increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the brain that leads to DNA damage (nuclear and mitochondrial) and metabolic enzyme blockade and that these inflammatory and oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,455 accessesView PDFCite
