acetyl-coenzyme a carboxylase α (acc-alpha) is considered as the key regulatory enzyme in fatty acid biosynthesis. acc-alpha gene is located on caprine chromosome 11 and is polymorphic in many goat breeds. in the current study, we aimed to find possible single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) in the exon 1 region of the acc-alpha gene in iranian mahabadi goat breed. genomic dna was extracted fro...

The present study was aimed to identify the frequency of coagulase (Coa) and thermonuclease (Nuc) genes and Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (Sea) production among Staphylococcus aureus isolated from various sources in Shiraz. Moreover, the correlation between the Sea gene and coagulase and thermonuclease enzymes is also considered. A total of 100 S. aureus were isolated from various sources includ...

stearoyl-coa desaturase (scd) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids (mufa). a number of studies support the hypothesis that scd gene regulation and polymorphism may affect fatty acid composition and fat quality in meat and milk. single nucleotide polymorphisms in the coding region of the bovine stearoyl-coa desaturase gene have been predicted to result in ...

Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive, round-shaped bacterium that member of the Firmicutes. It often positive for catalase and nitrate reduction. Pathogenic strains promote infections by producing virulence factors such as potent protein toxins, expression cell-surface binds inactivates antibodies. Sepsis-related to methicillin-resistant S. (MRSA) has significant morbidity high mortality ra...

background: nephrotic syndrome is a disorder that leads to hyperlipidemia. l-carnitine and genistein can effect on lipid metabolism and the syndrome. in the present study, we have delved into the separate and the twin-effects of l-carnitine and genistein on the gene expressions of hmg-coa reductase and ldl receptor in experimental nephrotic syndrome. methods: in this controlled experimental stu...

conclusions the outcome of this study indicates a higher discriminatory power of the rflp analysis based on the spa gene compared to the coa gene. moreover, the results of our study reveal that the resistance rate of s. aureus to some antimicrobial agents including linezolid is a growing concern. background antibiotic resistant staphylococcus aureus is a serious public health problem worldwide....

Objective: Succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid CoA transferase (SCOT) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder of ketone utilization and isoleucine catabolism caused by mutations in the OXCT1 gene,
 Case: A Saudi girl case SCOT confirmed analysis has been reported this study. 5-year-old presented to emergency with first episode severe metabolic ketoacidosis after febrile illness. On admission, she was dr...

barley belongs to the poaceae which is the largest monocotyledon family. plastid single-copy gene acetyl-coa carboxylase (accase) is the first step in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and therefore, it is used to study the phylogenetic relationships, evolutionary and systematic of grasses. in this study, for the first time, phylogenetic relationship of eight species of hordeum genus from iran in...

conclusion: the outcome of this study show that spa and coa typing are suitable meth­ods for mrsa isolates typing because it is easy to use and interpret them, and that these methods can be useful in infection source detection and its control especially in epidemic situations. result: pcr results showed seven different patterns for staff and five different patterns for patients based on spa gen...
