JAK1 frameshift mutations may promote cancer cell immune evasion by impeding upregulation of the antigen presentation pathway in microsatellite unstable endometrial cancers (ECs). This study investigated the JAK1 mutation frequency, its functional implication in immune evasion and its prognostic significance in microsatellite unstable EC. Microsatellite instability and three microsatellite repe...

We fit a Markov chain model of microsatellite evolution introduced by Kruglyak et al. to data on all di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats in the yeast genome. Our results suggest that many features of the distribution of abundance and length of microsatellites can be explained by this simple model, which incorporates a competition between slippage events and base pair substitutions, with no n...

Background: The human behavior is influenced by genetic as well environment components. Likewise, the aggressive having an intent of criminality also governed both environmental and makeup. Aim: element has been explored analyzing microsatellite RS1 RS3 AVPRIA gene which showed strong variations in short tandem repeats (STRs) convicted offenders when they were compared with normal population. M...

Microsatellites are short sequence repeats that make up the genomes of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. They great importance as DNA markers for studies in several fields genetics. In present review, we searched published five years period 2017 to 2021 regarding use microsatellites with forest tree species from Brazilian biomes, order examine these resources conservation. We scientific papers journa...

In order to identify new markers around the glaucoma locus GLC1B as a tool to refine its critical region at 2p11.2-2q11.2, we searched the critical region sequence obtained from the UCSC database for tetranucleotide (GATA)n and (GTCT)n repeats of at least 10 units in length. Three out of four potential microsatellite loci were found to be polymorphic, heterozygosity ranging from 64.56% to 79.59...

G6PD deficiency mutational profile and haplotype diversity using 6 RFLPs (FokI/PvuII/BspHI/PstI/BclI/NlaIII) and a (CTT)(n) microsatellite, were investigated in 70 G6PD-deficient Portuguese individuals. All but one G6PD A-(376G/202A) variants (44/45) have a single haplotype (+/+/-/+/-/+/195). G6PD Betica(376G/968C) alleles (n=10) have a single RFLP haplotype (+/-/-/+/-/+) and 4 different (CTT)(...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite markers were developed to assess the level of genetic variation and population structure in Banksia integrifolia, a widespread species endemic to eastern Australia. • METHODS AND RESULTS We used next-generation sequencing approaches to identify and develop 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers with perfect tri- and tetranucleotide repeats. We ...

Brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stål) (Homoptera: Delphacidae) is an economically important pest on rice. In this study, 30 polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from N. lugens genomic libraries using the method of Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequence Containing Repeats (FIASCO). Polymorphism of each locus was detected in 48 individuals from two natural populations. These micros...

The nucleotide sequence of the African side-necked turtle mitochondrial control region and its flanking tRNA genes was determined. This 73% A+T-rich region is 1194 bp long. Several conserved motifs involved in the regulation of the mitochondrial genome replication process, including one conserved sequence block (CSB1), and three termination-associated sequences were identified. The most remarka...
