conclusions overall, results of present study were consistent with the data reported earlier base on 5’ ntr in iranian isolates and revealed genotype ir2 is major genotype in iranian hgv-positive patient. it means there are higher similarities between iranian and europe-usa in hgv ns3 gene. results nucleotide blast results emphasized that most similar sequences to ir ns3 sequences were those fr...

In order to perform breeding programs and improve production of native chickens, preserving genetic diversity in different areas of Iran is important due to the reduced available population. Genome sequencing is considered the most functional approach to determine the phylogeny relation between close populations. The aim of the present study was the evaluation of the phylogeny and genetic nucle...

Esox lucius is an economically important freshwater species. Mitochondrial cytb, 12SrRNA, and 16SrRNA gene sequences were used in order to clarify the genetic variation and population structure in three E. Lucius populations, i.e., one Wild population (W) and two hatchery populations (Hatchery Population I-HPI and Hatchery Population II-HPII). A total of 55 individuals, with 19 from wild and 1...

Statistical significance of the similarity observed is the main question while comparing sequences. This problem has not yet been solved mathematically for optimal aligning of the sequences containing insertions and deletions. We have carried out the regression analysis of the observed similarity of random sequences depending on their length and nucleotide composition and are proposing a practi...

objectives analysis of ns5a polymorphisms in hcv genotype 1b pre-treatment serum samples from estonian patients and their effect on the treatment response. patients and methods twenty-nine complete ns5a sequences obtained from patients with chronic hcv-1b infection who had received combined therapy with pegifnα-2a/rbv were analyzed and compared with the prototype strain hcv-j. twelve patients a...

amebiasis caused by entamoeba histolytica is still mentioned as one of the major health problems in tropical and subtropical areas. e. histolytica has recently been redescribed as two distinct species; e. histolytica and e. dispar. in the present study, we characterized the 70 kda heat shock protein (hsp70) of e. dispar at molecular level and compared it with that of e. histolytica. with these ...

Thousands of plasmid sequences are now publicly available in the NCBI nucleotide database, but they are not reliably annotated to distinguish complete plasmids from plasmid fragments, such as gene or contig sequences; therefore, retrieving complete plasmids for downstream analyses is challenging. Here we present a curated dataset of complete bacterial plasmids from the clinically relevant Enter...

Background: Dermatophytes create the most common fungal disease in humans, called dermatophytosis. The two species of Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton interdigital are responsible for over 80% of types of dermatophytosis. So far, several morphological and physiological methods have been used to differentiate these very similar species, but these methods are generally time-consuming and have...
