Background and Aims: Apricot latent virus (ApLV) is a species within Foveavirus genus (Betaflexiviridae family, Tymovirales order). Phylogenetic analyses using different ORFs nucleotide sequences divided most ApLV isolates into two clusters. However, there is little data about the sources of genetic differentiation among ApLV isolates. Materials and Methods: Partial coat protein (CP) sequences...

DNA sequence data contains a wealth of biologically useful information. Recent innovations in DNA sequencing technology have greatly increased our capacity to determine massive amounts of nucleotide sequences. These sequences can be used to specify the characteristics of different regions, interpret the evolutionary relationships between categorized groups, likelihood of performing multiple com...

background: traditionally, morphological features of rhipicephalus (boophilus) annulatus from closely-related ticks have been considered for their identification and differentiation. however, it is difficult and requires expertise in order to accurately identify and differentiate engorged female ticks and some developmental stages such as larva and nymph from other similar ticks. hence, molecul...

Now, it is clear that protein is just one of the most functional products produced by the eukaryotic genome. Indeed, a major part of the human genome is transcribed to non-coding sequences than to the coding sequence of the protein. In this study, we selected three long non-coding RNAs namely AK082072, AK043754 and AK082467 which show brain expression and local region conservation among vertebr...

prochymosin is one of the most important aspartic proteinases used as a milk-clotting enzyme in cheese production. in the present investigation we report sequence of cdna encoding goat ( capra hircus ) preprochymosin and compare its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences with sequences of other ruminants preprochymosin. as bovine prochymosin, the caprine prochymosin cdna encodes 365 amino ...

conclusions results of the current study indicated that aconitase was not a suitable target to design new anti-fungal drugs that selectively block this enzyme. materials and methods candida krusei (atcc: 6258) aconitase gene was determined by 5’rapid amplification of cdna ends (race) method and degenerate polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and analyzed using bioinformatics softwares. objectives th...

very little is known about lhr and fshr genes of domestic dromedary camels. the main objective of this study was to determine and analyze partial genomic regions of fshr and lhr genes in dromedary camels for the first time. to this end, a total of 50 dna samples belonging to dromedary camels raised in iran were sent for sequencing (25 samples of each gene). we compared the nucleotide sequences ...

background: parasite lactate dehydrogenase ( p ldh) is extensively employed as malaria rapid diagnostic tests (rdts). moreover, it is a well-known drug target candidate. however, the genetic diversity of this gene might influence perfor­mance of rdt kits and its drug target candidacy. this study aimed to determine polymorphism of p ldh gene from iranian isolates of p. vivax and p. falciparum. m...
