in the present research, molecular detection of bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (blad) and complex vertebral malformation (cvm)in a population of iranian holstein cows has been carried outusing milk somatic cells by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(pcr-rflp). the blad and cvm are monogenic and autosomal recessive heredity lethal syndrome in holstein-friesi...

results no significant difference was found between the groups regarding bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism. the c allele was not associated with ns-cl/p (or = 1.27, 95% ci = 0.85-2.79, p = 0.690). conclusions our data suggested that bmht rs3797546 gene polymorphism was not associated with risk/ protection for ns-cl/p in a sample of iranian population. larger studies are required to validate our ...

objective: to investigate the association of c631t single nucleotide polymorphisms in spo11 gene with male infertilityfollowed by an in silico approach. spo11 is a gene involved in meiosis and spermatogenesis process, which in humans, this gene is located on chromosome 20 (20q13.2-13.3) with 13 exons. materials and methods: in a case-control study, 200 blood samples were collected from the ivf ...

background genome-wide association studies have shown that rs738491, rs2143571, and rs3761472 in the sorting and assembly machinery component 50 homolog (samm50) gene are significantly associated with susceptibility to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld). conclusions we first demonstrated that the rs738491 t allele, rs2143571 a allele, and rs3761472 g allele in the samm50 gene created susc...

molecular genetics selection on individual genes is a promising method to genetically improve economically important traits in livestock. the insulin like growth factor-i (igf-i) gene may play important roles in growth of multiple tissues, including muscle cells, cartilage and bone. the objectives of the present study were the estimate the haplotype frequencies of the igf-i gene polymorphisms i...

DNA polymorphism within diacylglycerol transferase 2 (DGAT2) / monoacyl glycerol transferases 2 (MOGAT2), leptin and butyrophilin genes were analysed using PCR-SSCP in Murrah buffalo. The single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of amplified gene fragment in exon 5 of MOGAT2, exon 3 of leptin and intron 1 of butyrophilin gene revealed different patterns. A, B and C showed the fol...

dna polymorphism within diacylglycerol transferase 2 (dgat2) / monoacyl glycerol transferases 2 (mogat2), leptin and butyrophilin genes were analysed using pcr-sscp in murrah buffalo. the single strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) analysis of amplified gene fragment in exon 5 of mogat2, exon 3 of leptin and intron 1 of butyrophilin gene revealed different patterns. a, b and c showed the fol...

Background: Obesity is a very common disorder resulting from an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure, and it has a substantial impact on the development of chronic diseases.  The aim of this study was to examine the association of INSIG2 (rs7566605) gene polymorphism with obesity and obesity associated phenotypes in North Indian subjects. Methods: The variants were investig...
