the nutrients are able to interact with molecular mechanisms and modulate the physiological functions in the body. the nutri­tional genomics focuses on the interaction between bioactive food components and the genome, which includes nutrigenet­ics and nutrigenomics. the influence of nutrients on f genes expression is called nutrigenomics, while the heterogene­ous response of gene variants to nu...

Background: DNA amplification method has been developed for identifying and discriminating Salmonella serovars, using specific primers at the genus and serovar levels and to identify the S. Enteritidis, S. Dublin, S. Gallinarum and S. Pullorum. Objectives: This study was conducted for molecular identification and discrimination among some important Salmonella serovars. Methods: Fifty isolates o...

conclusions the b3, b5, b7, b8 and b9 subgenotypes can be clustered into quasi-sub-genotype b3 and the open reading frame of hbv has a start codon preference; however, whether a mutation in the start codon in the pre-s2 region has an impact on survival and replication of hbv remains to be determined. background the number of cases of hbv infection reported by the who for each district and count...

to compare different qtl mapping methods, a population with genotypic and phenotypic data was simulated. in bayesian approach, all information of markers can be used along with combination of distributions of snp markers. it is assumed that most of the markers (95%) have minor effects and a few numbers of markers (5%) exert major effects. the simulated population included a basic population of ...

listeria monocytogenes can cause serious infection and recently, relapse of listeriosis has been reported in leukemia and colorectal cancer, and the patients with klebsiella pneumoniae are at increased risk of colorectal cancer. translation initiation codon recognition is basically mediated by shine-dalgarno (sd) and the anti-sd sequences at the small ribosomal rna (ssu rrna). in this research,...

saffron is one of the highly exotic spices known for traditional values and antiquity. it is used for home décor besides serving as a colorant flavor and is widely known for medicinal value. over the last few years, saffron has garnered a lot of interest due to its anti-cancer, anti-mutagenic, anti-oxidant and immunomodulatory properties. integration of systems biology approaches with wide appl...

stem cell factor (scf) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. in the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of scf was performed in humanoids using bioinformatics tools including ncbi-blast, mega6, and jbrowse. our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by ncb...
