Objectives: Royal jelly (RJ), a secretion of both the hypopharyngeal and mandibular glands of nurse workers, is believed to play a central role in honeybee queen development. Important component of royal jelly are proteins which form about 50% of the dry mass of RJ. Major royal jelly proteins (MRJPs) are the dominant proteinaceous component of royal jelly and constitute about 82-90% of total pr...

Background: Formation of secondary structure such as DNA hairpins or loops may influence molecular genetics methods and PCR based approaches necessary for genetic engineering, in addition to gene regulation. Materials and Methods: A polymerase chain reaction with splice overlap extension (SOE-PCR) was used to create fully synthetic 1F5 chimeric anti-CD20 heavy- and light-chain genes. The chi...

identification of associated genes with energy balance, yield and feed intake are recent interests of the animal breeding researchers. najdi breed is the famous cattle breed in the khuzestan province. in this research for the investigation of leptin gene promoter ,from 15 najdi cows in the shushtar cattle center station was taken. dna from whole blood was extracted and 544bp and 566 bp two piec...

aspartic proteases are a relatively small group of enzymes which express in various nematodes including onchocerca volvulus. an estimation of the gene copy number corresponding to the ov7a clone, which contains a cdna insert encoding approximately two-thirds of the entire coding sequence of aspartic protease of o. volvulus, was made by slot blot analysis in a closely related species o. gibsonig...

more than 185 species, strains and unclassified theileria parasites are categorized in the entrez taxonomy. the accurate diagnosis and proper identification of the causative agents are important for understanding the epidemiology, prevention and appropriate treatment. this study aims to discuss the importance of two genes of theileria annulata 18s ribosomal rna (18s rrna) and theileria annulata...

introduction: at present, most recombinant proteins are produced in prokaryotes especially e coli. yeasts and cho also are used as eukaryotic hosts. leishmania tarentolae, a parasite of lizards, a member of trypanosomatidae family is one of the new systems for expression of heterologous proteins. in this system, some of the parasitic protozoa features are used in expression of mammalian protein...

The complete mRNA sequence of one tobacco (nicotiana tabacum) gene—guanosine monophosphate (GMP)synthase, was amplified using the rapid amplification cDNA ends methods. full-length GMP synthase gene 2,127bp containing a 1,617 bp open reading frame, which encodes protein 538 amino acids. Sequence analysis revealed that shares high homology with wood tobacco(99%), nicotiana attenuata(99%), toment...

in this study, to increase information about the relationship between caprine and ovine isolates of pasteurella multocida, 16s rrna gene sequencing of 9 goats (5) and sheep (4) isolates were investigated. also, capsular type and toxagene presentation was studied in this paper. all isolates, except one, belong to capsular type a, and toxa+ strain distributed among strains were isolated from both...

capsules from a range of pathogenic bacteria are the key determinants of virulency. the capsule hasbeen implicated in virulence of pasteurella multocida. in this study a type-specific polymerase chain reaction(pcr) assay was used for capsular typing of 39 avian p. multocida isolates from iran. the pcr amplified afragment of 1044 bp from all of tested isolates. it was found that all avian p. mul...
