Sequences homologous to BAV component of HL23V in baboon tissues.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The BAV component of HL23V virus (HL23V-BAB) hybridized to DNA from different Baboon tissues and appears to be an endogenous Baboon virus. Competition hybridization studies show that HL23V-BAB is closely related to viruses isolated from various Baboon species: P. hamadrys, P. papio, and P. cynocephalus. Competition hybridization studies also show that normal Baboon tissues contain more copies of proviral DNA than cells infected in vitro.

DNA sequence of baboon highly repeated DNA: evidence for evolution by nonrandom unequal crossovers.
A highly repeated DNA was isolated from the West African baboon (Papio papio) as a 343-base-pair fragment after digestion of total baboon DNA with the restriction endonuclease BamHI. The DNA sequence of this fragment was obtained by chemical cleavage methods and is compared with the DNA sequence of related highly repeated primate DNAs from African green monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops) and man. ...
متن کاملAmplification of simian retroviral sequences from human recipients of baboon liver transplants.
Investigations into the use of baboons as organ donors for human transplant recipients, a procedure called xenotransplantation, have raised the specter of transmitting baboon viruses to humans and possibly establishing new human infectious diseases. Retrospective analysis of tissues from two human transplant recipients with end-stage hepatic disease who died 70 and 27 days after the transplanta...

Background: Cystic echinococcosis (CE), known as hydatid cyst, is a zoonotic parasitic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus). Antigen B, the major component of hydatid cyst fluid, is encoded by members of a multigene family. The present study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of the gene encoding antigen B8/1 (EgAgB8/1) among the main intermediate...
متن کاملI-10: Vitrification of Baboon Ovarian Tissue:Will Vitrification Replace Conventional Freezing for Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation?
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a vitrification protocol developed by our group to cryopreserve ovarian tissue. For this, we used ovaries from non-human primates in order to have an animal model close to the clinical setting. Materials and Methods: Ovarian biopsies from five adult baboons were vitrified, warmed and autografted. After five months, follicle survi...
متن کاملClass I MHC expression in the yellow baboon.
MHC class I molecules play a crucial role in the immune response to pathogens and vaccines and in self/non-self recognition. Therefore, characterization of MHC class I gene expression of Papio subspecies is a prerequisite for studies of immunology and transplantation in the baboon (papio hamadryas). To elucidate MHC class I expression and variation within Papio subspecies and to further investi...
