objectives: in present study we aimed to clone the lux i gene encoding n-acyl-homoserine synthase detected in biofilm forming clinical isolates of acinetobacter baumannii and study its expression in escherichia coli transformants. materials and methods: four a. baumannii hospital strains which demonstrated strong biofilm activity were selected in this investigation. the presence of lux i gene w...

Background: Because of the protection of surplus embryos, Cryopreservation is usually used in ART. It is not clear, the vitrified-warmed embryos that have normal morphology, be normal in genetic level, too. DNA methylation of gene regulatory regions can causes inhibition of gene expression. We study effect of vitrification method of cryopreservation on DNA methylation and gene expression level ...

spinal cord injury (sci) results in up regulation and/or down regulation of several genes that may affect neuronal death and subsequent loss of motor function and also neuropathic pain. to expand a practical therapy, it is essential to recognize the specific molecular pathways altered as a function of time after spinal cord injury. this will help to develop strategies for positive manipulation ...

Aberrant DNA methylation has been reported as an important phenotype in acute myeloid leukemia. However the clinical significance of methylation changes has not been clear yet. In this study methylation Specific Melting Curve Analysis (MS-MCA) and real time PCR was used to assess the CDKN2B promoter hyper-methylation and gene expression in 59 Iranian acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. The i...

Trehalose is the non-reducing alpha-alpha-1, 1-linked glucose disaccharide. The biosynthesisprecursor of trehalose, trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P), is essential for plant development, growth,carbon utilization and alters photosynthetic capacity but its mode of action is not understood. In thecurrent research, 6 days old seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia ecotype) were grown inliquid cultu...

conclusions over-expression of the synthetic cpc/β protein in the bacterial system (escherichia coli bl-21) showed that e. coli can be used as a basis for further research to produce this desired protein in large quantities. results the sds-page analysis and dot blotting confirmed the production of recombinant c-pc/β in the bacterial expression system. over-expression of cpcb gene was optimized...
