In order to survey the evolutionary history and impact of historical events on the genetic structure of Iranian people, the HV2 region of 141 mtDNA sequences related to six Iranian populations were analyzed. Slight and non-significant FST distances among the Central-western Persian speaking populations of Iran testify to the common origin of these populations from one proto-population. Mismatch...

abstract: a pure nucleotide pool is an essential precursor of correct dna replication and prevention of mutagenesis and abnormality in a living cell. inosine triphosphatase (itpase) is a critical enzyme to remove any deaminated rough purine nucleotides such as inosine from nucleotide pool. it has been shown that the rate of substitution mutation in genomic dna increase by abnormal function and ...

Secale cereale (rye) with its vitally importance can have a marked place in the world cereal production, particularly in North Europe. This study concerns morphology, taxonomy and cytotaxonomy of this species in Iran. Based on the evaluation of 12 qualitative and quantitative morphological characters and using phenetic analysis, it was revealed that, S. cereale occurs in Iran with two subspecie...

as a case study, the genotypic polymorphism of the iranian material of diploid triticum was screened based on internal transcribed spacer 2 (its2) of the ribosomal dna (rdna) using single strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) analysis. this is a simple and cost effective technique for genotyping and investigating the allelic polymorphism among plant populations. performing sscp analysis among...

INTRODUCTION Genetic variations in the calpain 10 gene (CALPIN-10), single nucleotide polymorphisms-43 (SNP-43), have increased the risk of type 2 diabete mellitus (T2DM) and coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS We studied the control and CAD groups for association of association of SNP-43 in the CALPIN-10 gene with T2DM and other risk factors of its complications. Overall, we examined 452 ...

Isolation of CYP72A154, a gene involved in glycyrrhizin biosynthesis pathway, Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (Iranian licorice)

New wintering populations of Whooper Swan have been recently reported from west Asia, a lack of information about the population and its origin. The understanding the genetic structure and connectivity are crucial for determining strategies of management for its conservation programs. The samples were collected from two populations in northern Iran, Finland, Sweden, and Iceland, where with larg...

Identification of the Peroxisomal Biogenesis Factor 1 Gene Point Mutation in an Iranian Family with Zellweger Syndrome (ZS)

Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism of rs11061971 (+219 A>T) in Adiponectin Receptor 2 (AdipoR2) Gene and its Association with Risk Type Diabetes among Iranian Population
