background coronary artery disease (cad) is the most common cause of death worldwide. mef2a directly regulates target genes in the process of muscle development. this gene product is a transcription factor. mef2a protein in homodimer or heterodimer forms binds to a/t-rich cis elements with conserved sequence in promoter, regulator, and enhancer of many genes, which are determining in evolution ...

results all 90 campylobacter isolates confirmed by m-pcr were successfully typed using flaa-pcr-rflp. eleven different types were defined according to flaa-typing method and the rflp patterns were located at three separate clusters in rflp image analysis dendrogram. conclusions campylobacter jejuni isolates significantly showed more variety than c. coli isolates. a relatively low genetic divers...

The "debrisoquine polymorphism" is a clinically important genetic defect of drug metabolism affecting 5-10% of individuals in Caucasian populations. It is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. A full-length cDNA for human cytochrome P-450db1, the deficient enzyme (also designated P450IID1 for P450 family II subfamily D isozyme 1), has recently been cloned. Leukocyte DNA from "extensive met...
