Genetic Recombination Is Targeted towards Gene Promoter Regions in Dogs
The identification of the H3K4 trimethylase, PRDM9, as the gene responsible for recombination hotspot localization has provided considerable insight into the mechanisms by which recombination is initiated in mammals. However, uniquely amongst mammals, canids appear to lack a functional version of PRDM9 and may therefore provide a model for understanding recombination that occurs in the absence ...
متن کاملGene Expression under F8 Promoter Driving In Mouse Hepatoma Cells: A Step towards Gene Therapy of Hemophilia
Background and Objectives: Significant progress has been made in treatment of hemophilia. Ex-vivo gene therapy is going popular due to the capability of this method in using isogenic cells for genetic manipulation and reintroducing them into same host after proliferation. Most gene therapy techniques use viral vectors, which usually harbor a strong and non-specific promoter (e...
متن کاملGene Pool Recombination in Genetic Algorithms
A new recombination operator, called Gene Pool Recombination (GPR) is introduced. In GPR, the genes are randomly picked from the gene pool defined by the selected parents. The mathematical analysis of GPR is easier than for two-parent recombination (TPR) normally used in genetic algorithms. There are n difference equations for the marginal gene frequencies that describe the evolution of a popul...
متن کاملImpact of Genetic Variants in Mir-122 Gene and its Flanking Regions on Hepatitis B Risk
MicroRNAs are small non coding RNAs that are involved in gene expression regulation. Mir-122 was reported to inhibit hepatitis B virus (HBV), but little is known about the role of mir-122 polymorphisms on HBV infection development. This present study aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in mir-122 gene region with HBV infection. Study cases were HB...
متن کاملSafety Assessment of Liver-Targeted Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery in Dogs
Evidence in support of safety of a gene delivery procedure is essential toward gene therapy. Previous studies using the hydrodynamics-based procedure primarily focus on gene delivery efficiency or gene function analysis in mice. The current study focuses on an assessment of the safety of computer-controlled and liver-targeted hydrodynamic gene delivery in dogs as the first step toward hydrodyna...
