Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosing the Gaps in Rat Cytomegalovirus ALL-03 (Malaysian Strain) Genomic ScaffoldKrishnan Nair Balakrishnan, Ashwaq Ahmed Abdullah, Yusuf Abba et al.Next generation sequencing technologies has revolutionized genomic research by producing a large volume of sequence data and lowest per base cost compared to the traditional sanger method. Although this technology offers many advantages, gap occurrences are commonly found in draft assemblies. The same problem was observed with Rat Cytomegalovirus (RCMV) ALL-03 (Malaysia strain), where a complete genome sequence could not … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Different Drugs in Down-Regulation of Efflux Pump Genes expression in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus StrainsManu Chaudhary, Santosh Kumar Patnaik, Anurag PayasiAntimicrobial resistance caused by efflux systems is not widely studied in Staphylococcus aureus. In the present study, prevalence of NorA and NorB efflux pumps was studied in thirteen Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains using a pair of primers with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Antibiotic susceptibility study in NorA and NorB efflux positive isolates was carried out according to the Clinical … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING THE GENETIC RELATIONSHIP OF TAIF ROSE WITH SOME ROSE GENOTYPES (ROSA SP.) BASED ON RANDOM AMPLIFIED POLYMORPHIC DNA, INTER SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEAT AND SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEAT MARKERSSalah El-Din El-Assal, Mohamed A. El-Awady, Adel El-Tarras, Gaber ShehabTaif-roses are a famous rose type that cultivated in Taif region and well known with their deep and intensive fragrance in the Arabian World. Despite of the great economical importance of Taif-roses for the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, their genetic origin has not been yet elucidated. The present study was mainly aimed to assess the genetic relationship between Taif-roses and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 29 Apr 2014 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF INTER SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS AND SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS MARKERS: GENETIC ANALYSIS OF DESCHAMPSIA CESPITOSA POPULATIONS GROWING IN METAL CONTAMINATED REGIONS IN CANADAK.K. Nkongolo, S. Gervais, P. Michael, Y. ZhouComparative studies conducted on the genetic variation of metal-tolerant populations and their non-metal-tolerant counterparts have been performed on numerous species using isozyme markers. Analysis of genetic differences among plant populations growing in heavy metal-contaminated and uncontaminated regions are limited. The main objectives of the present study were to compare ISSR and microsatellite markers in assessing genetic variation in D. cespitosa … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2014 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Cloning and Heterologous Expression of Human Interferon Alpha2b GeneI. Made Artika, Yemima Budirahardja, Anna Lucia EkowatiHuman alpha Interferons (hIFNα) have been shown to have antiviral, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory activities. The human interferon alpha2b (hIFNα2b), is one of the human interferon alpha2 sub variants, naturally synthesized as a polypeptide of 188 amino acid residues, the first 23 residues of which represents a signal peptide. In the present study, the hIFNα2b gene was expressed after being fused … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIDENTIFICATION, MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF SOME RUMINAL BACTERIA THAT CATALYZE AND DEGRADE PLANT CELLULOSIC MATERIALSAhmed A. Mansour, T. S. El-Tayeb, N. E. El-BordenyIn the last few years there was a growing economic awareness about plant wastes and use it in compost production or in feeding of farm animals, some of these wastes are useless and cause a lot of problems in Egyptian environment. This study was designed to isolate, identify and evaluate some ruminal bacterial isolates to facilitate the in vitro degradation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2013 · 7,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Characterization of a Bovine Breed (Tabapua) Under Artificial Selection Located in the Amazon RegionJose Elivalto Guimaraes Campelo, Marcone Helmer da Silva, Ednaldo da Silva Filho et al.Brazil currently has the biggest commercial bovine cattle population in the world. Several different breeds that come from Europe and India compose it. They are primarily used for dairy and meat production. In Brazil, several high quality genetic background cattle are kept in a condition known as pure breed, meaning no other animal of different genetic background is interbreeding with … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2013 · 7,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPyrosequencing-An Alternative to Traditional Sanger SequencingMd Fakruddin, Abhijit ChowdhuryProblem statement: Pyrosequencing has the potential to rapidly and reliably sequence DNA taking advantages over traditional Sanger di-deoxy sequencing approach. Approach: A comprehensive review of the literature on the principles, applications, challenges and prospects of pyrosequencing was performed. Results: Pyrosequencing was a DNA sequencing technology based on the sequencing-by-synthesis principle. It employs a series of four enzymes to accurately detect … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2012 · 12,887 accessesView PDFCite
