Characterization and complementation of pMB1 copy number mutant: effect of RNA I gene dosage on plasmid copy number and incompatibility.
A 16-base-pair insertion has been identified as the mutation responsible for the high-copy-number phenotype of the plasmid copy number mutant pFH118. The mutation is located near the plasmid origin of replication in a region of the genome that encodes two overlapping RNA transcripts. One of these transcripts, RNA I, acts as a negative regulator of plasmid replication. The second transcript is t...
متن کاملI-44: Concurrent Whole-Genome Haplotyping and Copy-Number Profiling of Single Cells
Background Methods for haplotyping and DNA copynumber typing of single cells are paramount for studying genomic heterogeneity and enabling genetic diagnosis. Before analyzing the DNA of a single cell by microarray or next-generation sequencing, a whole-genome amplification (WGA) process is required, but it substantially distorts the frequency and composition of the cell’s alleles. As a conseque...
متن کاملEvaluation of HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET and TP53 gene copy number alterations in gastric cancer patients
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is considered as one of the most common types of cancer worldwide with poor prognosis and generally limited treatment options. Recent studies have indicated that HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET, and TP53 play an important role in the development of gastric cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of amplification/deletion of these genes in pati...
متن کاملAssessment of mitochondrial DNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocyte of opiate abusers and healthy individuals
Background: Based on the studies, variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases including cancer. Opiate abusers are at high risk for diseases. In this study, we measured the mtDNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes in a group of opiate abusers compared with those in healthy individuals. Met...
متن کاملSome stochastic models for plasmid copy number.
Some stochastic models for the copy number of plasmids in a cell line are studied. When considering the behavior of copy number in the whole cell line, the theory of multitype branching processes is appropriate. Attention is paid to the cure rate in the cell line, and the asymptotic fractions of cells containing a given number of plasmids. These quantities are used to compare the models numeric...
