Allele diversity of the H-ras-1 variable number of tandem repeats in Norwegian lung cancer patients.
We have examined restriction fragment length polymorphisms of the H-ras-1 gene in germ-line DNA from 214 lung cancer patients and 309 unaffected controls. When DNA samples were digested with MspI/HpaII, Southern blot analysis revealed at least 22 different alleles, grouped according to their frequencies as common, intermediate, and rare. The frequency of rare alleles in lung cancer patients (16...
متن کاملDiversity of Variable Number Tandem Repeat Loci in Shigella Species Isolated From Pediatric Patients
Multilocus variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) is a new typing method with several advantages compared to other methods. Dissemination of Shigella is highly significant in developing countries. Whilst Shigella is becoming increasingly important as an etiologic agent of pediatric shigellosis in Iran, little is known about the genetic diversity of the local strains. Therefore, th...
متن کاملGenetic susceptibility associated with rare HRAS1 variable number of tandem repeats alleles in Spanish non-small cell lung cancer patients.
The highly polymorphic HRAS1 variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR), which maps 1 kb downstream from the human H-ras1 gene, has been described as an inherited predisposing factor in many human cancers. Here, we investigated the association between the presence of rare HRAS1 minisatellite alleles and lung cancer in the population studied. Four hundred sixty-six HRAS1 VNTR alleles from 233 lung...

متن کاملEvolution of Variable Number Tandem Repeats and Its Relationship with Genomic Diversity in Salmonella Typhimurium
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is the most common Salmonella serovar causing human infections in Australia and many other countries. A total of 12,112 S. Typhimurium isolates from New South Wales were analyzed by multi-locus variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) using five VNTRs from 2007 to 2014. We found that mid ranges of repeat units of 8-14 in VNTR locus STTR5, 6...
