Interstitial deletion in the long arms of chromosome 1: 46,XY,del(1)(pter leads to q22::q25 leads to qter).

A severely retarded male with deletion of chromosomes 15 (pter leads to q13) and 10 (q 26 leads to qter).

Chromosome Y Centromere Array Deletion Leads to Impaired Centromere Function

The centromere is an essential chromosomal structure that is required for the faithful distribution of replicated chromosomes to daughter cells. Defects in the centromere can compromise the stability of chromosomes resulting in segregation errors. We have characterised the centromeric structure of the spontaneous mutant mouse strain, BALB/cWt, which exhibits a high rate of Y chromosome instabil...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

The splitting design that leads to simple random sampling

Implementing unequal probability sampling, without replacement, is very complex and several methods have been suggested for its performance, including : Midseno design and systematic design. One of the methods that have been introduced by Devil and Tille (1998) is the splitting design that leads to simple random sampling .in this paper by completely explaining the design, with an example, we ha...

Deletion of mouse Alkbh7 leads to obesity.

Mammals have nine homologues of the Escherichia coli AlkB repair protein: Alkbh1-8, and the fat mass and obesity associated protein FTO. In this report, we describe the first functional characterization of mouse Alkbh7. We show that the Alkbh7 protein is located in the mitochondrial matrix and that an Alkbh7 deletion dramatically increases body weight and body fat. Our data indicate that Alkbh7...
