چکیده

Our knowledge of the structure of ribonucleic acids (RNA) has advanced considerably in recent years. In the first place, the refinement of chromatographic techniques has made possible an accurate estimation of the purine and pyrimidine composition (Vischer & Chargaff, 1948; Markham & Smith, 1949; Carter, 1950; Markham & Smith, 1951). Secondly, with the aid of both chemical and enzymic methods it has been shown that the constituent nucleosides inRNA are linked together as in I,

Sequence analysis of nonradioactive RNA fragments by periodate-phosphatase digestion and chemical tritium labeling: characterization of large oligonucleotides and oligonucleotides containing modified nucleosides.

A tritium derivative method for sequence analysis of polyribonucleotides is detailed, which is based on borotritide reduction of oligonucleotide dialdehydes generated by treatment of polyribonucleotides with alkaline phosphatase and excess periodate at pH 8 (borate buffer; no primary amine present in the reaction mixture). While neither phosphatase nor periodate possess any intrinsic exonucleas...

Nucleotide Sequence Analysis of Polyribonucleotides by Means of Periodate Oxidation Followed by Cleavage with an Amine.

Whitfeld and Markham (1) described a method for the stepwise degradation of polyribonucleotides which involved oxidation of the vicinal hydroxyl groups of the terminal nucleoside residue to a dialdehyde by means of periodate, followed by treatment with glycine at pH 10.5 to remove the terminal base. In this way they converted GpC to 3’-GNP and cytosine. A similar procedure was applied to 5’-AMP...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism in the Dopamine Receptor Type 3 (DOP3) Candidate Gene Associated with Varroa Destructor Resistance in Honeybee

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Varroa infestation is undoubtedly the greatest threat and challenge facing Apiculture today. This external parasite inevitably lives in the bee colony and causes irreparable damage to its colony and the subsequent honey production. One of the proposed strategies in this regard is the use of pesticides, which have a negative impact on the health of ...

Nucleotide sequence of cDNA encoding for preprochymosin in native goat (Capra hircus) from Iran

Prochymosin is one of the most important aspartic proteinases used as a milk-clotting enzyme in cheese production. In the present investigation we report sequence of cDNA encoding goat ( Capra hircus ) preprochymosin and compare its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences with sequences of other ruminants preprochymosin. As bovine prochymosin, the caprine prochymosin cDNA encodes 365 amino ...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Association Studies: A Few Critical Points

Uncovering DNA sequence variations that correlate with phenotypic changes, e.g., diseases, is the aim of sequence variation studies. Common types sequence variations are Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip).SNPs are the third-generation molecular marker. SNP represents a DNA sequence variant of a single base pair with the minor allele occurring in more than 1% of a given popula...
