چکیده

Distributions of triplets in some genetic sequences are examined and found to be well described by a 2-parameter Markov process with a sparse transition matrix. The variances of all the relevant parameters are not large, indicating that most sequences gather in a small region in the parameter space. Different sequences have very similar values of the entropy calculated directly from the data and the two parameters characterizing the Markov process fitting the sequence. No relevance with taxonomy or coding/noncoding is clearly observed.

Matrix genetics, part 1: permutations of positions in triplets and symmetries of genetic matrices

The Kronecker family of the genetic matrices is investigated, which is based on the genetic matrix [C T; A G], where C, T, A, G are the letters of the genetic alphabet. The matrix [C T; A G] in the second Kronecker power is the (4*4)-matrix of 16 duplets. The matrix [C T; A G] in the third Kronecker power is the (8*8)-matrix of 64 triplets. It is significant that peculiarities of the degeneracy...

Familial Acute Myelogenous Leukemia: Report of Three Cases

Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy, which accounts for about 15-25% of childhood's leukemia. Genetic factor is one of the most important predisposing elements in childhood acute leukemia, especially AML. In this case report, a rare presentation of familial AML is presented in three monozygotic triplets. Two were 10 months old, and the other one was 16 months old at p...

A Novel Ribosomal-based Method for Studying the Microbial Ecology of Environmental Engineering Systems

A novel ribosomal-based method was applied to examine genetic relationships among microorganisms in the phylogenetic domains of Archaea and Bacteria. Representative unaligned nucleotide sequences of 16s rRNA genes were retrieved from the RDP database. In the domain of Archaea, based on the numbers of certain tri-nucleotides or triplets, the two phyla, Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota could be se...

Molecular Detection of Novel Genetic Variants Associated to Anaplasma ovis among Dromedary Camels in Iran

To the best of our knowledge, little information is available regarding the presence of Anaplasma species in camels in Iran. This study sought to investigate the presence of Anaplasma species by microscopy and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays in 100 healthy dromedaries (Camelus dromedarius) arriving for slaughter. The microscopic examination of Giemsa-stained blood films revealed that Ana...
