Dermatophagoides farinae, as one species of house dust mites, was known to be rich in IgE-reactive components that contribute to allergy in China and worldwide. This study aims to characterize a novel allergen, the D. Farinae-derived Der f 25. In this study, total RNA was extracted from Dermatophagoides farinae and the full-length of Der f 25 gene was amplified by RT-PCR with the primers design...

Alterations in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dicer is one of the main regulators of miRNA biogenesis, and deregulation of its expression has been indicated as a possible cause of miRNA alterations observed in various cancers. Our aim was to analyze the expre...

phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (pepck) has been shown to be present in plants and animals, playing different metabolic roles in different tissues. the basic role of this enzyme is its contribution in the gluconeogenesis pathway. evidences have shown that pepck may play a role in metabolism of nitrogenous compounds in developing seeds of legumes. in this research, pepck gene expression and th...

We have studied the changes in protein-protein interaction network of 38 different tissues of the human body. 123 gene expression samples from these tissues were used to construct human protein-protein interaction network. This network is then pruned using the gene expression samples of each tissue to construct different protein-protein interaction networks corresponding to different studied ti...

Cathepsin L1 (CatL1) is one of the major molecules in the excretory-secretory products of Fasciola hepatica and is secreted by all stages of the developing parasite; it is involved in tissue penetration, immune evasion, feeding and pathogenesis. Our aim in this study was to clone and characterise the F. hepatica CatL1 gene from a Turkish isolate. This is the first report of cDNA encoding CatL1 ...

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is a very dangerous livestock disease which causes a serious loss in the production of milk and meat. Therefore, producing an effective recombinant subunit vaccine virus this disease is of great importance. Transient gene expression is a valuable tool to reach rapid and acceptable recombinant vaccine. An Agrobacterium-mediated transient gene expression assay was car...

four exons of the human genomic gm-csf gene were assembled together using gene splicing by overlap extension (soe) method. the resulting nucleotide sequence was cloned in the pet23a(+) ex pression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage t7 transcription and translation signals. the construct obtained was transferred into the e. coli strain, bl21(de3) plyss and iptg was used for inducti...
