Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIsolation and Identification of Listeria monocytogenes in Processed Meat by a Combined Cultural-molecular MethodAngela Ingianni, Marta Quartuccio, Maria Antonietta Madeddu et al.The isolation and identification of Listeria monocytogenes in processed meat samples by a combined cultural-molecular method is described. It allows the identification of Listeria strains by means of a hybridization technique with a specific DNA probe directed to the listerial internalin gene. The specificity of this method was found to be 100% and sensitivity was as low as 1 CFU/2.5 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,252 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDNA 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. We have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,502 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural and Evolutionary Analysis of PARPs in D. discoideumA. Mehadvi Kawal, Hina A. Mir, Chethan Kumar Ramniklal et al.Problem statement: Dictyostelium discoideum, a unicellular eukaryote, exhibits multicellularity upon nutrient starvation, making it a better model for developmental studies and for the study of various signal transduction pathways. The most felicitous point of interest is that many of its genes show high degree of similarity to vertebrate genes. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a ubiquitous and abundant nuclear protein, has … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBinding Studies of Natural Product Berberine with DNA G-QuadruplexNagendra K. Sharma, Pooja Lunawat, Manjusha DixitProblem statement: The ends of chromosome had highly repetitive short G and C-rich sequences of DNA. These sequences were known to form stable tetraplex type of secondary structures which help to maintain gene integratity after cell divison. Approach: Any reagent which controls the random cell division would be useful to design anticancer drugs. Therefore a many natural and synthesized molecules … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2011 · 8,797 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHuman Immunodeficiency Virus and Carcinoma CervixA. Jaisri, Shanta Bhaskaran, Prasanna KumarProblem statement: Carcinoma of the cervix is the second leading cause of death in women in the world. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) which plays a major role in the etiology of cervical cancer is said to have the same mode of transmission as the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Hence the curiosity to learn the prevalence, incidence and association of cervical … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,577 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Sequence Based Validation of Gene Expression Microarray DataGerhard G. Thallinger, Eva Obermayr, Pornpimol Charoentong et al.Problem statement: Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is often used to validate microarray data. Previous studies show different levels of correlation, without further investigation of influencing factors. Approach: We compared expression levels of 381 genes obtained from microarray hybridizations and from TaqMan based RT-qPCR assays. Correlation of expression levels was determined by comparing: (i) single genes across samples, (ii) all … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2012 · 13,715 accessesView PDF Cite
