Molecular evolution of mammalian class I alcohol dehydrogenase.
Phylogenetic relationship and the rates of evolution of mammalian alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) have been studied by using the amino acid sequences from the human (ADH alpha, ADH beta, and ADH gamma), rat, mouse, and horse (ADH E and ADH S). With the maize ADH1 and ADH2 used as references, the patterns of the amino acid replacements in the beta-sheets, alpha-helices, and random coils in each of...
متن کاملDistribution of class I, III and IV alcohol dehydrogenase mRNAs in the adult rat, mouse and human brain.
The localization of different classes of alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) in the brain is of great interest because of their role in both ethanol and retinoic acid metabolism. Conflicting data have been reported in the literature. By Northern blot and enzyme activity analyses only class III ADH has been detected in adult brain specimens, while results from riboprobe in situ hybridization indicate c...
متن کاملMolecular Typing by Polymerase Chain Reaction Sequence Specific Primers (PCR- SSP) of Human Leukocyte Class I and Class II Alleles in a Sample of Iraqi Visceral Leishmaniasis Patients
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the association between HLA alleles and visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in a sample of Iraqi patients. Methods: A total of 30 patients were studied, in addition to 20 age, gender and ethnicity matched controls. All subjects were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) method. Results: For HLA-class I region (A and B loci)...

متن کاملHistological distribution of class III alcohol dehydrogenase in human brain.
The distributions of class III alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), a glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase, and class I ADH in the human brain were examined immunohistochemically. The most intense immunostaining of class III ADH was observed in the dendrites and cytoplasm of cerebellar Purkinje cells. Scattered cerebral cortical neurons in layers IV and V, and some hippocampal pyramidal neu...
