background and objectives: thermophilic bacteria are less studied but important group of microorganisms due to their ability to produce industrial enzymes. materials and methods: in this study, thermophilic bacteria were isolated from hot spring of tarabalo, india. a bacterium that could tolerate high temperatures was characterized by morphology, biochemistry and sequencing of its 16s rrna gene...

background escherichia coli is one of the most causative pathogen of urinary tract infection. urinary tract infections (utis) are the second most common cause of morbidity and remain a serious health concern among the clinicians. the severity of uti caused by uropathogenic e. coli (upec) is due to the expression of a wide spectrum of virulent factors such as adhesin coding operons. little is kn...

more than 185 species, strains and unclassified theileria parasites are categorized in the entrez taxonomy. the accurate diagnosis and proper identification of the causative agents are important for understanding the epidemiology, prevention and appropriate treatment. this study aims to discuss the importance of two genes of theileria annulata 18s ribosomal rna (18s rrna) and theileria annulata...

in this study, the cdna growth hormone (cgh) of the belugasturgeon (husohuso) and russian sturgeon (acipensergueldenstaedtii) were cloned and sequenced, and phylogenetic relationships were examined using nucleic acid and amino acid sequences. the nucleotide sequence of the beluga gh has an open reading frame of 645 nucleotides encoding a protein 214 amino acid residues. the signal peptide cleav...

despite routine vaccination programs against newcastle disease (nd), sporadic cases have occasionally occurred that remain a constant threat to commercial poultry. ten isolates of newcastle disease viruses (ndv) from infected broiler chicken cases were obtained from various locations in fars province during 2009-2011 and genetically analyzed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction...

considering the importance of theileria equi infection in horse breeding industry and marketing, in the present study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of t. equi among dromedaries in central iran, where a considerable number of camels and horses are raised and equine theileriosis is quite prevalent. for this purpose, a total of 161 blood samples from camels were examined in terms of t. equ...

conclusions genotypes 1 and 4 demonstrated remarkable similarity in terms of genome sequences and proteins, but surprisingly, in terms of the preferred codons for gene expression, they showed the greatest difference. more studies are therefore needed to confirm the results and select the best approach for treatment of these genotypes based on their codon usage properties. results the six genoty...

background: bovine theileriosis results from infection with obligate intracellular protozoa of the genus theileria . the phylogenetic relationships between two isolates of theileria annulata , and 36 theile­ria spp . , as well as 6 outgroup including babesia spp . and coccidian protozoa were analyzed using the 18s rrna gene sequence. methods: the target dna segment was amplified by pcr. the pcr...

polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (pcr-rflp) and phylogenetic analysis were used for molecular identification of lactic acid bacteria (labs) isolated from apis mellifera. eighteen honeybee workers were collected from three different apiaries in west azerbaijan. labs from the gut of honeybees were isolated and cultured using routine biochemical procedures. ge...
