Recognizing genes with distinctive expression levels can help in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the diseases at the genomic level. In this paper, fast Global k-means (fast GKM) is developed for clustering the gene expression datasets. Fast GKM is a significant improvement of the k-means clustering method. It is an incremental clustering method which starts with one cluster. Iteratively ...

introduction: colorectal cancer (crc) is one of the most prevalent cancers in the world. genetic disorders and dietary habits play a part in crc. the most important cancer suppressor gene is p53. different mutations rates in 7th exon of p53 gene are reported in different areas  which may have a relationship with prognosis of crc. this study examines the relationship between mutation in 7th exon...

haploid microspore-derived embryos (mdes) of wheat were obtained by in vitro androgenesis. these  embryos were employed to evaluate the transient expression of gus gene (uida) following particle bombardment. using the bio-rad pds-1000/he system, the physical parameters including rupture disk pressure (900, 1100 and 1350 psi); microprojectile travel distance (6 and 9 cm); gold particles size (0....

drought stress is one of the serious problems that restricted agronomic plant production worldwide. inmolecular level, the harmful effect of drought stress is mostly caused by producing of large amount ofreactive oxygen species (ros). catalase and metallothionein genes have a crucial role to mope the hydrogenperoxide (h2o2) resulting reducing oxidative damage. in this research the gene expressi...

interleukin-1β (il-1β) has a role in β- cell destruction in autoimmune diabetes by stimulating the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (inos) that generates the free radical nitric oxide. we aimed to investigate the effect of achillea millefolium l, as a traditional hypoglycemic agent, on il-1β and inos gene expression of pancreatic tissue in the stz- induced diabetic rats. forty adul...

the sporozoites of theileria annulata invade bovine mhc ii cells, where they differentiate into schizonts. the later can immortalize and induce fundamental changes in their host cells. live attenuated vaccine is an important way of controlling t. annulata infection of cattle. production is by prolonged cultivation of macroschizont-infected cells. the mechanisms underlying this transformation ar...

background and objectives: clostridium perfringens, a gram-positive obligate anaerobic bacterium, is able to form resistant spores which are widely distributed in the environment. c. perfringens is subdivided into five types a to e based on its four major alpha, beta, epsilon and iota toxins. the aim of the present study was cloning and expression of c. perfringens type d vaccine strain epsilon...
