Cloning and characterization of a new isoform of mouse interleukin-18.

Optimization of Cloning Conditions for high-level Production of Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-2 in Escherichia coli

Backgrounds and objectives: Interleukin 2 (IL-2) secreted by activated CD4+ T cells  has been known as a major mediator in both  adaptive and native immune system  due to a board range of effects on  different cells in the immunity system (1-6). Methods: cDNA synthesis was performed using gene- specific primers designed by Gene Runner software after RNA extraction of mouse splenocytes. PCR pro...

Detection, Cloning, Molecular Characterization and Phylogenic Analyses of a New Primate T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type I in Olive Baboon

Partial Cloning and Nucleotide Sequencing of Glutamate Decarboxylase Gene Isoform 65 from Human Brain

Background: Gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA), a non-protein amino acid acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammalians. The glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is responsible for the conversion of L-glutamate to GABA. The human brain has two isoforms of this enzyme, GAD65 and GAD67 that differ in molecular weight, amino acid sequence, antigenicity, cellular location ...

P-121: Cloning and Expression of The Inosine Triphosphate Pyrophosphatase Gene Variant II in E.coli

Background Environmental and cellular inappropriate conditions can cause damages to cells nucleotide poll. Deamination and oxidation damages interfere with cell�s vital reactions. Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (ITPA), an evolutionary conserved enzyme, plays a critical role in elimination of non-canonical bases. In human genome, the ITPA gene is located on chromosome 20 short arm and tran...

Cloning and molecular characterization of TaERF6, a gene encoding a bread wheat ethylene response factor

Ethylene response factor proteins are important for regulating gene expression under different stresses. Different isoforms for ERF have previously isolated from bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and related genera and called from TaERF1 to TaERF5. We isolated, cloned and molecular characterized a novel one based on TdERF1, an isoform in durum wheat (Tri...
