Background and Objectives: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) initiation progression is regulated by epigenetic genetic alterations. Imatinib therapy resistance in CML patients important clinical issue. To understand association of kinase domain mutation promoter hypermethylation genes with imatinib hold significance North-East India. This study a hospital based cross sectional study. Methods: A to...

BACKGROUND Detection of mutations by gel electrophoresis and allele-specific amplification by PCR (AS-PCR) is not easily scaled to accommodate a large number of samples. Alternative electrophoretic formats, such as capillary electrophoresis (CE) and microchip electrophoresis, may provide powerful platforms for simple, fast, automated, and high-throughput mutation detection after allele-specific...

The beta-casein gene is one of the most functional genetic candidate that affect milk quality and composition traits. Among its variants, A1/A2 are common. Therefore, aim this study was to identify distribution Beta-casein variants (A1/A2) in three different cattle breeds order determine which breed produce a better for consumers’ health.

The Human Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) plays a crucial role in transplantation, transfusion, paternity test and assessment of susceptibility to some diseases associated with HLA-B27. Three of the most fashionable methods for determination of HLA antigens in clinical and research laboratories are microlymphocytotoxicity (MLCT), flowcytometry and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). T...

We describe here a quantitative real-time PCR assay for the detection of single-base-pair differences that does not require fluorescently labeled gene-specific probes or complicated primer combinations. Following PCR or RT-PCR of a gene segment that may contain allele-specific differences, 100 pg amplified product are used for a real-time PCR with allele-specific primers and SYBR Green. The use...

Ancient and modern 183 varieties of winter 23 spring types development bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) selected Ukrainian state institutions private companies are characterized by alleles Ppd-D1, Ppd-B1, Ppd-A1 genes. Allele-specific molecular markers, proposed in the scientific literature, were used to identify carriers Ppd-D1a, Ppd-D1b, Ppd-D1c, Ppd-D1d, Ppd-B1a, Ppd-B1c, Ppd-A1b alleles. ...

Numerous genetic polymorphisms and clinical laboratory parameters are associated with ischemic stroke (IS). However, the results of such studies have frequently been inconsistent. The aim present study was to evaluate associations between that influence risk IS in a Chinese Han population. Clinical were measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer. Genotype allele frequencies angiotensin‑conve...

To identify a fast and sensitive method for screening for mutations in patients with imatinib- resistant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), we compared allele specific oligonucleotide- polymerase chain reaction (ASO-PCR) assay with conventional direct sequencing. Among the 68 imatinib resistant CML patients studied, 18 amino acid substitutions were detected in 44 patients by two assays. The sensit...

Fluorescent nucleic acid detection in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) generally uses oligonucleotide probes labeled with covalently attached dyes. However, unlabeled oligonucleotides in the presence of saturating DNA dyes can also serve as hybridization probes. The DNA dye, LCGreen Plus, and a 3'-blocked unlabeled probe are added before amplification, and asymmetric PCR is performed at a 1:5 to...

BACKGROUND Recently, it has become evident that RNA editing-related changes are important in the modulation of neuronal information processing. Alternatively edited transcripts, when meagerly present, are hard to detect. Significant functional consequences may result, however, from small differences in editing efficiency. Moreover, it is difficult to evaluate the ratio of edited transcripts. Th...
