Analysis of EST-SSRs in silver birch (Betula pendula Roth.)
(Northeast Forestry University, 2016-06)
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) defined as sequence repeat units between 1 and 6 bp occur abundantly in both coding and non-coding regions in eukaryotic genomes and these repeats can affect gene expression. In this study, ...
Lysosomal Cathepsin A plays a significant role in the processing of endogenous bioactive peptides
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
Lysosomal serine carboxypeptidase Cathepsin A (CTSA) is a multifunctional enzyme with distinct protective and catalytic function. CTSA present in the lysosomal multienzyme complex to facilitate the correct lysosomal routing, ...
Frequency and levels of potential drug-drug interactions in tuberculosis patients of a teaching hospital in Pakistan
(Colegio Farmaceuticos Provincia De Buenos Aires, 2016)
Polypharmacy in tuberculosis is used to prevent occurrence of resistance to mycobacteria. However, drug-drug interaction is one of the undesirable consequences of polypharmacy, that may lead to ineffective medication or ...
A machine learning approach for microRNA precursor prediction in retro-transcribing virus genomes
(Walter De Gruyter, 2016-12)
Identification of microRNA (miRNA) precursors has seen increased efforts in recent years. The difficulty in experimental detection of pre-miRNAs increased the usage of computational approaches. Most of these approaches ...
PGMiner reloaded, fully automated proteogenomic annotation tool linking genomes to proteomes
(De Gruyter, 2016)
Improvements in genome sequencing technology increased the availability of full genomes and transcriptomes of many organisms. However, the major benefit of massive parallel sequencing is to better understand the organization ...
Detection of physiological and genotoxic damages reflecting toxicity in kalanchoe clones
(Global Network Environmental Science & Technology, 2016)
In order to make assessments in understanding of physiological and genotoxic effects of imposing cadmium (Cd) on photosynthetic pigment contents along with the changes occurring in genetic material of Kalanchoe plants were ...
Genome-wide SNP discovery and genetic linkage map construction in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) using a genotyping by sequencing (GBS) approach
(Springer, 2016-09)
Recently developed plant genomics approaches (LD mapping and genome-wide selection) require many molecular markers distributed throughout the plant genome. As a result, the availability of an increasing number of markers ...
Physical mapping of NBS-coding resistance genes to the Me-gene cluster on chromosome P9 reveals markers tightly linked to the N gene for root-knot nematode resistance in pepper
(Springer, 2016-10-01)
Natural root-knot nematode resistance genes are unique resources to control this major pest in pepper (Capsicum annuum). Although four genes (Me1, Me3, Me7 and N) conferring broad-spectrum resistance were mapped to a cluster ...
Altered cellular localization and hemichannel activities of KID syndrome associated connexin26 I30N and D50Y mutations
(BioMed Central, 2016-02)
Background: Gap junctions facilitate exchange of small molecules between adjacent cells, serving a crucial function for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Mutations in connexins, the basic unit of gap junctions, are ...
In vitro antimicrobial screening of Aquilaria agallocha roots
(African Ethnomedicines Network, 2016)
ackground: It was previously shown that some parts of Aquilaria agallocha, which is commonly known as oud or oodh, such as roots have been used as a traditional medical herbal in different countries. In Turkey A. agallocha ...
