background: tuberculosis (tb) remains as a major cause of death around the world. construction of a new vaccine against tuberculosis is an effective way to control it. several vaccines against this disease have been developed. the aim of the present study was to cloning of tb10.4 gene in pcdna3.1+ plasmid and evaluation of its expression in eukaryotic cells. methods: firstly, tb10.4 fragment wa...

SETH4 coding sequence with 2013 bp is a member of gene family expressed in gametophytic tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana. This fragment was PCR amplified using Kod Hi Fi DNA polymerase enzyme. This fragment was cloned into pGBKT7 bate vector and transformed E. coli DH5? cells containing vector were selected on LB medium containing Kanamycin. Finally, pGBKT7-SETH4 bate was transformed into yeast ...

microcerotermes diversus (silvestri) (isoptera: termitidae), an important wood pest in ahwaz (khuzestan, iran), causes serious economic damage to cellulosic products in buildings. to investigate the genetic diversity of this pest, 13 populations from different areas of khuzestan province as well as two samples from khark island and bandar abbas were collected. following dna extraction a fragmen...

Toxoplasmosis is a common and widespread infection in humans and many other species of warm–blooded animals. Toxoplasma gondii-derived heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) may play an important role in the virulence of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii). In the present study, T. gondii Hsp70 was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from the DNA of the T. gondiitachyzoite RH strain through the use o...

The nucleotide sequence of a 3,378-bp DNA fragment of Streptococcus pneumoniae that included the structural gene for penicillin-binding protein (PBP) 1a (ponA), which encodes 719 amino acids, was determined. Homologous DNA fragments from an S. oralis strain were amplified with ponA-specific oligonucleotides. The 2,524-bp S. oralis sequence contained the coding region for the first 636 amino aci...

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...

The fungus Venturia nashicola is the causal agent of scab on Asian pears. For the rapid and reliable identification as well as sensitive detection of V. nashicola, a PCR-based technique was developed. DNA fingerprints of three closely related species, V. nashicola, V. pirina, and V. inaequalis, were obtained by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Two RAPD markers specific to V. na...

seth4 coding sequence with 2013 bp is a member of gene family expressed in gametophytic tissues of arabidopsis thaliana. this fragment was pcr amplified using kod hi fi dna polymerase enzyme. this fragment was cloned into pgbkt7 bate vector and transformed e. coli dh5? cells containing vector were selected on lb medium containing kanamycin. finally, pgbkt7-seth4 bate was transformed into yeast ...

Eight oligonucleotide primers in 7 different combinations were used to amplify 3D gene sequences of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Six of the primers were designed at this laboratory. All the primer combinations could specifically amplify 3D gene sequences of FMDV serotypes O, A, and C. The largest fragment amplified was of 1,393...
