Gene Mapping - The Texas A&M University Angleton Project

چکیده
In this paper, we discuss the application of maps of linked markers to identify genes of economic importance to the livestock industries and summarize significant results to date. We describe our approach to identify genes associated with beef carcass merit in the ‘Angleton project. ” We consider the potential benefits and limitations of marker-assisted selection and discuss issues of additivity of gene effects, epistasis, genotype by environment interaction and linkage disequilibrium. Progress toward the construction of a bovine Bacterial Artificial Chromosome library and results from initial screenings of this library for single-copy DNA sequences are presented.

Strong and $Delta$-convergence theorems for total asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in CAT(0)
In this work we use the Noor iteration process for total asymptotically nonexpansive mapping to establish the strong and $Delta$-convergence theorems in the framework of CAT(0) spaces. By doing this, some of the results existing in the current literature generalize, unify and extend.
متن کاملConsensus Molecular Subtypes of Colorectal Cancer and their Clinical Implications
The colorectal cancer (CRC) subtyping consortium has unified six independent molecular classification systems, based on gene expression data, into a single consensus system with four distinct groups, known as the consensus molecular subtypes (CMS); clinical implications are discussed in this review based on articles relevant to the CMS of CRC indexed in PubMed as well as the authors’ own ...
متن کاملI-49: Human Y Chromosome ProteomeProject
The success of the Human Genome Project (HGP) has provided a blueprint for the approximately 20,000 gene-encoded proteins potentially active in all of the hundreds of cell types that make up the human body. Yet we still have limited knowledge about a majority of the gene-encoded proteins which are the “building blocks of life” and “cellular machinery”. It is estimated that for nearly half of th...
متن کاملMapping of Transcription Factor Binding Region of Kappa Casein (CSN3) Gene in Iranian Bacterianus and Dromedaries Camels
κ-casein is a glycosilated protein in mammalian milk that plays an essential role in the milk micelles. Control of κ-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other milk protein genes. Transcriptional regulation, a first mechanism for controlling the development of organisms, is carried out by transcription facto...
