Dental reduction and the probable mutation effect.
نویسنده
چکیده
A recent test of the probable mutation effect can be interpreted to suggest the operations of mutations under conditions of reduced selection in the late Pleistocene reduction of the human dentition.

Human dental reduction: natural selection or the probable mutation effect.
Dental reduction has been sufficiently widespread among human populations to render the phenomenon of reduced tooth size worthy of scientific explanation. One of the most controversial models invoked to explain structural reduction in organisms is referred to as the "probable mutation effect" (PME). According to this model, structures no longer functional owing to ecological or cultural changes...
متن کاملStudy of pH influence on the stability of 175th codon of P53 genes by computational and modeling methods
P53 tumor suppressor gene, also known as “genome guardian” is mutated in more than half of allkind of cancers. In this study we have investigated the controls of environmental pH for P53 genemutation in point of specific sequence which is prone to mutagenesis. The most probable cancerousmutations occur as point mutations in exons 5-8 of P53 gene. The 175th codon of P53 is the thirdmost mutated ...

متن کاملThe Effect of Different Marginal Designs on the Fracture Resistance of Monolithic Zirconia Crowns
Abstract Background and Aim: One of the major problems of all ceramic restorations is their probable fracture against the occlusal force. The aim of the present in vitro study is to compare the effect of three marginal designs (shoulder, sloped shoulder, chamfer) on the fracture resistance of monolithic zirconia crowns. Materials and methods: In this in vitro study, three PEEK dies with cham...
