Comparative genomics of human stem cell factor (SCF)
Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...
متن کاملIdentification and Discrimination of Salmonella Enteritidis, S. Pullorum, S. Gallinarum and S. Dublin Using Salmonella Specific Genomic Regions Amplification Assay
Background: DNA amplification method has been developed for identifying and discriminating Salmonella serovars, using specific primers at the genus and serovar levels and to identify the S. Enteritidis, S. Dublin, S. Gallinarum and S. Pullorum. Objectives: This study was conducted for molecular identification and discrimination among some important Salmonella serovars. Methods: Fifty isolates o...
متن کاملPredicting cis-acting elements of Lactobacillus plantarum by comparative genomics with different taxonomic subgroups
Cis-acting elements in Lactobacillus plantarum were predicted by comparative analysis of the upstream regions of conserved genes and predicted transcriptional units (TUs) in different bacterial genomes. TUs were predicted for two species sets, with different evolutionary distances to L.plantarum. TUs were designated 'cluster of orthologous transcriptional units' (COT) when >50% of the genes wer...
متن کاملMapping and Expression Analysis of a Fusarium Head Blight Resistance Gene Candidate Pleiotropic Drug Resistance 5 (PDR5) in Wheat
Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum is a serious disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), through which grain quality losses are induced by fungal trichotecene mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON). A class of plasma membrane localized ABC transporter proteins related to the yeast PDR5 (pleiotropic drug resistance5) efflux pump seems to be responsible for partial resista...
متن کاملLecture 15 - Comparative Genomics I: Genome annotation
This lecture and the next will discuss the recent and current research in comparative genomics being performed in Professor Kellis’ lab. Comparative genomics allows one to infer understanding of genomes from the study of the evolution of closely related species, and vice-versa. This lecture will discuss the use of evolution to understand genomes, and lecture 16 will deal with using genomes to b...
