We have previously shown that a T to G transversion at the second T of the conalbumin "TATA" box drastically decreases specific initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase B (1). We now report that a T to A transcription at the same nucleotide also drastically decreases transcription, suggesting that these mutations influence transcription mainly by altering nucleotide recognition rather than...

Objective: Identity the genetic aspects and major gene influence on energy balance, milk production, fertility, food safety and consumer are the recent interests of genetic and breeding researchers. Methods: Najdi Cattle is the most prominent breeds in Khuzestan province. To do this plan in Shoushtar Najdi Cattle Station, blood samples were taken from 15 Najdi Cattles. DNA was extracted from wh...

O6-alkylguanine DNA-alkyltransferase (ATase) provides protection against the toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic effects of alkylating agents, principally by removing the promutagenic lesion O6-alkylguanine from DNA. Differences in ATase activity in human tissue may thus determine mutational susceptibility. As GC-->AT transitions, which can be induced by O6-alkylguanine in DNA, are commonly obser...

We explored the relationship between relaxed selection, oxidative stress, and spontaneous mutation in a set of mutation-accumulation (MA) lines of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and in their common ancestor. We measured steady-state levels of free radicals and oxidatively damaged guanosine nucleosides in the somatic tissues of five MA lines for which nuclear genome base substitution and GC...

It has been argued that genetic instability is required to generate the myriad mutations that fuel tumor initiation and progression and, in fact, patients with heritable cancer susceptibility syndromes harbor defects in specific genes that normally maintain DNA integrity. However, the vast majority of human cancers arise sporadically, in the absence of deficiencies in known "mutator" genes. We ...

BACKGROUND p53 gene mutations have been reported in over half of all human cancers and they appear to occur in the early stage of cancer, thus indicating the important role that such mutations may play in the carcinogenesis of the digestive tract. This study investigated the differences in p53 abnormalities between cancers of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. MATERIALS AND METHODS T...

The spontaneous rate of G.C-->A.T mutations and a hotspot T.A-->G.C transversion are known to increase with the frequency of transcription-increases that have been ascribed primarily to processes that affect only these specific mutations. To investigate how transcription induces other spontaneous point mutations, we tested for its effects in repair-proficient Salmonella enterica using reversion...

Ovarian cancer is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disease. The driving forces behind this variability are unknown. Here, we report wide variation in the expression of the DNA cytosine deaminase APOBEC3B, with elevated expression in the majority of ovarian cancer cell lines (three SDs above the mean of normal ovarian surface epithelial cells) and high-grade primary ovarian cancers. AP...
