Background: Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are sequences of cDNA fragments prepared from different tissue sources. There are over one million of these sequences in the publicly available database, and these sequences are believed to represent more than half of all human genes. The ESTs belong to different cDNA libraries, was prepared from one particular cell type, organ, or tumor. Therefore, th...

A gene encoding a small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein (smGTP) related to the Rab2 gene family of GTPases was identified during the analysis of a salt stress suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) expression library from the model grass species Lolium temulentum L. (Darnel ryegrass). The smGTP gene was found to have a low-level constitutive expression and was strongly induced...

With the continuous development of sequencing technology, amount bioinformatics data has increased geometrically, and massive puts forward more stringent requirements for sequence assembly problems. The algorithm based on DBG (De Bruijn graph) strategy is a key in bioinformatics, which widely used domain gene assembly. Current research always focuses optimization specific steps to lack domain-l...

background and objectives: phytoplanktons are organisms with a very high diversities and global distribution in different habitats. the high distribution of phytoplankton is due to ecological flexibility and their ability to tolerate different climatic conditions and environmental stress. phytoplankton is the most sensitive biological indicators of water resources. the purpose of this study was...

The rat serum albumin gene has been isolated from a recombinant library containing the entire rat genome cloned in the lambda phage Charon 4A. Preliminary R-loop and restriction analysis has revealed that this gene is split into at least 14 fragments (exons) by 13 intervening sequences (introns), and that it occupies a minimum of 14.5 kilobases of genomic DNA.

OBJECTIVE Conventional diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis contains some controversial points. To understand accurately the relationship between clinical stages and the microbiotas, the intravaginal microbial flora was analyzed by the clone library method. STUDY DESIGN Vaginal fluid samples from 31 patients were examined. Lactobacillary grade, Nugent score, culture-based method, and clone librar...
