Background: Mayer - Rokitansky - Kuster - Hauser (MRKH) syndrome is characterized by congenital aplasia of the uterus and the upper part of the vagina in women showing normal development of secondary sexual characteristics and a normal 46, XX karyotype. Congenital anomaly of the female genital tract, estimated to occur in approximately 1 in every 5,000 females. It is caused by a failure of deve...

background: trichomonas vaginalis causes trichomoniasis and metronidazole is its chosen drug for treatment. ferredoxin has role in electron transport and carbohydrate metabolism and the conversion of an inactive form of metronidazole (co) to its active form (cpr). ferredoxin gene mutations reduce gene expression and increase its resistance to metronidazole. in this study, the frequency of ferre...

Nuclear genetic mutations have been extensively investigated in solid tumors. However, the role of the mitochondrial genome remains uncertain. Since the metabolism of solid tumors is associated with aerobic glycolysis and high lactate production, tumors may have mitochondrial dysfunctions. Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare form‌ of colorectal cancer and an autosomal dominant inheri...

Objective: The Rifampicin resistance and susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are caused by mutations in the 81-base pair region of the rpoB gene encoding the b-subunit of RNA polymerase. Methods: Isoniazid resistance of M. tuberculosis is related to mutations in inha , oxyR and ahpC genes which 30 to 90 percent of Isoniazid resistance is occurred in 3015 codons of kat...

Background: CDKN2A, encoding two important tumor suppressor proteins p16 and p14, is a tumor suppressor gene. Mutations in this gene and subsequently the defect in p16 and p14 proteins lead to the downregulation of RB1/p53 and cancer malignancy. To identify the structural and functional effects of mutations, various powerful bioinformatics tools are available. The aim of this study is the ident...

Introduction: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen of clinical importance, particularly in immunocompromised and burn patients. This bacterium is becoming resistant to many antibiotics via intrinsic or acquired mechanisms. Mutations in anti-mutator genes, such as pfpI, can be a potential intrinsic mechanism of antibiotic resistance. This study aimed to evaluate the possible effec...

objective: the rifampicin resistance and susceptibility of mycobacterium tuberculosis are caused by mutations in the 81-base pair region of the rpob gene encoding the b-subunit of rna polymerase. methods: isoniazid resistance of m. tuberculosis is related to mutations in inha , oxyr and ahpc genes which 30 to 90 percent of isoniazid resistance is occurred in 3015 codons of katg gene. the rpob a...

the aim of the current study is to amplification the regularity region encompassed the mutations changing the myostatin gene express and also to determine sequential analysis. the blood samples taken from 12 najdi cattles in najdi cattle station in shushtar city, khuzestan province. then the dna extracted to amplification 730bp and 561bp fragments. sequencing was performed after the precision i...
