Whole-loop mitochondrial DNA D-loop sequence variability in Egyptian Arabian equine matrilines
BACKGROUND Egyptian Arabian horses have been maintained in a state of genetic isolation for over a hundred years. There is only limited genetic proof that the studbook records of female lines of Egyptian Arabian pedigrees are reliable. This study characterized the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) signatures of 126 horses representing 14 matrilines in the Egyptian Agricultural Organization (EAO) horse-...
متن کاملSequence Variations of Mitochondrial DNA Displacement-Loop in Iranian Indigenous Sheep Breeds
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been used extensively to study population genetics because it has the unique features of maternal inheritance, a relatively fast rate of evolution and lack of recombination. A total of 82 unrelated sheep from 10 Iranian indigenous sheep breeds were investigated to determinate the maternal genetic diversity using a sequence of a 685 bp segment of the displacement lo...
متن کاملGenetic Analysis of D-Loop Region of Mitochondrial DNA Sequence in Iranian Patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP): A Case-Control Study
Background and Objectives: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited disorder and a rare form of colorectal cancer. This disease appears equally in both sexes and its occurrence is more in the second or third decade of life. Mutations and alterations of the mitochondrial genome, especially the D-loop region, have been reported in various human tumors. But the exact role of these muta...
متن کاملmitochondrial copy number and d-loop variants in pompe patients
objective: pompe disease is a rare neuromuscular genetic disorder and is classified into two forms of early and late-onset. over the past two decades, mitochondrial abnormalities have been recognized as an important contributor to an array of neuromuscular diseases. we therefore aimed to compare mitochondrial copy number and mitochondrial displacement-loop sequence variation in infantile and ad...
متن کاملSequence variations of mitochondrial DNA D-loop region in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
The aim of the present study was to explore variations of the displacement (D)-loop region in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and their possible associations with AML pathogenesis. Blood or bone marrow samples from 216 patients with AML (158 AML patients in the first stage, and 58 more patients with AML-M3 for further verification), and 146 healthy controls were collected. Sanger seq...
