چکیده

A novel selection method for the acquisition of DNA aptamers that selectively recognize resorufin using on-chip selection in combination with method for point mutations has been developed. This method proved efficient for selection for DNA aptamers of single-stranded oligo-DNAs. A genetic algorithm was applied to produce oligonucleotides for the combinatorial library. A fluorescent molecule, resorufin, was applied for the ligand selection as a target. The binding affinity of the library was analyzed by the DNA chip. This selection method of DNA ligands includes on-chip selection and point-mutated sequence, which the highest affinity was selected. The fluorescence intensity of the library on the DNA chip increased after three repetitions of the selection round. The average of response for the affinity test increased with each generation.

Congestion estimation of router input ports in Network-on-Chip for efficient virtual allocation

Effective and congestion-aware routing is vital to the performance of network-on-chip. The efficient routing algorithm undoubtedly relies on the considered selection strategy. If the routing function returns a number of more than one permissible output ports, a selection function is exploited to choose the best output port to reduce packets latency. In this paper, we introduce a new selection s...

Point Mutations in RET Proto-Oncogene Exon 10 in Patients with Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma

Background & Aims: Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy. Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is an aggressive malignant tumor arising from parafollicular cells of the thyroid. MTC occurs in hereditary (25%, hMTC) or sporadic (75%, sMTC) forms. The hMTC form has an autosomal dominant inheritance. RET proto-oncogene mutations, especially the 10, 11, and 16 exones, are associated w...

کاوش ژنومی برای ردیابی نشانه‌های انتخاب در اسب نژاد ترکمن

Abstract Selection not only increases the frequency of new-useful mutations but also remains some signals throughout the genome. Since these areas are often control economically important traits, identifying and tracking these areas is the most important issue in the animal genetics. The aim of this study was to detecting signals of selection in the genome of Turkmen horse using 70K SNP chip...

Identification of Human Cytomegalovirus pUL27 R233 point mutation using PCR-RFLP

Background and Aims: Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is one of the life-threatening agents in immunosuppressed patients and congenitally infected neonates in the world. Mutations in UL27 were suggested to confer low- to high-grade Maribavir (MBV) resistance. As pUL27 R233S variation may involve in either MBV-resistance, we aimed to establish a method for identifying R233 coding sequence mutation...
