Olfactory receptor-gene clusters, genomic-inversion polymorphisms, and common chromosome rearrangements.
The olfactory receptor (OR)-gene superfamily is the largest in the mammalian genome. Several of the human OR genes appear in clusters with > or = 10 members located on almost all human chromosomes, and some chromosomes contain more than one cluster. We demonstrate, by experimental and in silico data, that unequal crossovers between two OR gene clusters in 8p are responsible for the formation of...
متن کاملCystic lymphangioma scroti: a common tumor at a rare location.
Cystic lymphangioma is a common benign tumor caused by lymphatic malformation. The scrotum is a very rare site for this tumor and only few cases have been reported in the literature. We herewith present a rare case of cystic lymphangioma of the scrotum in an ado-lescent who presented with an incidental scrotal swelling with no other abnormality, where the diagnosis was suspected on scrotal ultr...
متن کاملCommon polymorphisms in angiogenesis.
A wide variety of diseases have a significant genetic component, including major causes of morbidity and mortality in the western world. Many of these diseases are also angiogenesis dependent. In humans, common polymorphisms, although more subtle in effect than rare mutations that cause Mendelian disease, are expected to have greater overall effects on human disease. Thus, common polymorphisms ...
متن کاملAMO inversion to a common azimuth dataset
I cast 3-D data regularization as a least-squares inversion problem. The model space is a four-dimensional (t , cmpx , cmpy ,hx ) hypercube. An interpolation operator maps to an irregular five dimensional space (t , cmpx , cmpy ,hx ,h y) which is then mapped back into a four dimensional space by applying Azimuth Move-Out (AMO). A regularization term minimizes the difference between various (t ,...
متن کاملAssociations of common polymorphisms in GCKR with metabolic syndrome
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by a combination of cardio-metabolic risk factors. Given that genetic factors have been shown to contribute to individual susceptibility to MetS, the identification of genetic markers for disease risk is essential. Recent studies revealed that rs780094 and rs1260326 of glucokinase regulatory gene (GCKR) are associated with serum triglycerid...
