چکیده

The genes for two of the apolipoproteins, apo A-I and apo C-III, previously shown to be within 3kb in the genome, were localized to human chromosome 11 by Southern blot analysis of DNA from human-rodent somatic cell hybrids. These two genes were shown to exhibit polymorphisms associated with dyslipoproteinemia and premature atherosclerosis, and it will now be possible to examine the relationship of these genes to the many others that have been assigned to this chromosome.

Localization of the structural gene for human apolipoprotein A-I on the long arm of human chromosome 11.

Apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), the major apolipoprotein in human high density lipoproteins, is involved in the disease atherosclerosis. Cloned apo A-I cDNA (pA1-3) was used as a probe in chromosome mapping studies to detect the human apo A-I structural gene sequence in human-Chinese hamster cell hybrids. Southern blot analysis of 13 hybrids localized the gene to human chromosome 11. Confirmation...

I-39: Exploring New Frontiers in Human Y Chromosome Proteome Project

The major goal of the Chromosome-Centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP) is to systematically map the entire human proteome with the intent to enhance our understanding of human biology at the cellular level. However, this goal may be hindered by the lack of quality observations of given proteins due to absence of expression in a given tissue, very low abundance, and expression only in rare samp...

SstI Polymorphism of the Apolipoprotein CIII Gene in Iranian Hyperlipidemic Patients: A Study in Semnan Province

Objective(s) The Sst-I polymorphic site on the 3' untranslated region of the apo CIII gene, has been previously reported to be associated with hypertriglyceridemia. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between Sst-I polymorphism with plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels in hyperlipidemic (HLP) patients from Semnan province, Iran. Materials and Methods Genomic DNA was pr...

نقش تعادل میان KIRهای مهاری و فعال کنندگی در تعیین استعداد ابتلا به اسپوندیلیت انکیلوزان

Background : Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) represents a progressive and debilitating disease that affects approximately 0.9% worldwide. So far the precise mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of AS is still unclear. Linkage between HLA-B27 and AS remains the strongest association between a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecule and disease. Despite intensive research, the ...
