Variability within the msp2 gene in populations of Anaplasma phagocythopilum.
Anaplasma phagocytophilum is an obligate intracellular bacterial parasite of verterbrate granulocytes. This bacterium is the aetiologic agent of human granulocytic anaplasmosis. The msp2 gene encoding major surface protein 2 is unique for Anaplasma and displays high antigenic variation. A fragment of the msp2 gene (334 bp) of A. phagocytophilum, amplified with DNA isolated from Ixodes ricinus, ...
متن کاملEnvironmental Disturbances Decrease the Variability of Microbial Populations within Periphyton
A central pursuit of microbial ecology is to accurately model changes in microbial community composition in response to environmental factors. This goal requires a thorough understanding of the drivers of variability in microbial populations. However, most microbial ecology studies focus on the effects of environmental factors on mean population abundances, rather than on population variability...
متن کاملStatistical Estimation of Age at Death Using Adult Human Dental Age Indicators
Background: To illustrate a statistical method for age estimation in the field of forensic science where identification of human remains is beyond recognition. Objective: The present investigation proposed a generalized linear model with the aim at finding an effective statistical model for human age estimation at death using solely dental indicators. Materials and Method: The data used in the ...
متن کاملHidden genetic variability within electromorphs in finite populations.
The amount of hidden genetic variability within electromorphs in finite populations is studied by using the infinite site model and stepwise mutation model simultaneously. A formula is developed for the bivariate probability generating function for the number of codon differences and the number of electromorph state differences between two randomly chosen cistrons. Using this formula, the distr...
متن کاملGene Expression Variability within and between Human Populations and Implications toward Disease Susceptibility
Variations in gene expression level might lead to phenotypic diversity across individuals or populations. Although many human genes are found to have differential mRNA levels between populations, the extent of gene expression that could vary within and between populations largely remains elusive. To investigate the dynamic range of gene expression, we analyzed the expression variability of ∼18,...
