Gene Family: Structure, Organization and Evolution
Gene families are considered as groups of homologous genes which they share very similar sequences and they may have identical functions. Members of gene families may be found in tandem repeats or interspersed through the genome. These sequences are copies of the ancestral genes which have underwent changes. The multiple copies of each gene in a family were constructed based on gene duplicati...
متن کاملLoss of Chloroplast trnLUAA Intron in Two Species of Hedysarum (Fabaceae): Evolutionary Implications
Previous studies have indicated that in all land plants examined to date, the chloroplast gene trnLUAA isinterrupted by a single group I intron ranging from 250 to over 1400 bp. The parasitic Epifagus virginiana haslost, however, the entire gene. We report that the intron is missing from the chloroplast genome of twoarctic species of the legume genus Hedysarum (H. alpinum, H. ...
متن کاملGenetic Variability in Growth Hormone Gene and Association between Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLP) Patterns and Quantitative Variation of Live Weight, Carcass, Behaviour, Heterophil and Lymphocyte Traits in Japanese Quails
Growth hormone gene plays a critical role in regulating growth and metabolism which leads to potential correlations between the polymorphisms of this gene and economic trait. A 776 bp fragment within the intron 1 region of the growth hormone gene from 346 individuals of an F2 population of Japanese quail was amplified. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product was digested using MspI restrict...
متن کاملP-127: The Effect of Beta Globin Intron on Human FSH Hormone Expression in CHO Cells
Background Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)- a hetrodimeric glycoprotein- is secreted by pituitary gland. This hormone stimulates growth and maturation of the follicles in females and sperms in male. Up to now, glycoprotein hormones such as FSH have produced in different cell lines. Among of the mammalian expression systems, the Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) have taken into consideration ...
متن کاملFunctions of the Heterologous Intron-Derived Fragments Intra and Extra Factor IX-cDNA Coding Region on the Human Factor IX Expression in HepG2 and Hek-293T Cells
Background: Human FIX (hFIX) gene transfer into hepatocytes has provided a novel approach for treatment of hemophilia B. To obtain an improved expression of hFIX, the functional hFIX-expressing plasmids with appropriate intron-derived fragments which facilitate transcription and promote an efficient 3′-end formation of mRNAs are required.Objectives: We ai...
