Background: One of the major aspects of traceability in food authenticity assessment is to explore practical methods to find the origin of food. Objective: The aim of the present study was to find a DNA based method for authentication and traceability of food, which are of great importance in health management. Methods: Four different DNA extraction methods were applied to obtain high pure DNA...

abstract accumulation of gene changes and chromosomal instability in response to cellular dna damage lead to cancer. dna damage induces cell cycle checkpoints pathways. checkpoints regulate dna replication and cell cycle progression, chromatin restructuring, and apoptosis. checkpoint kinase 2 (chk2) is activated in response to dna lesions. atm phosphorylate chk2. the activated chk2 kinase can p...

Objective: Berberis vulgaris contains antioxidants that can inhibit DNA cleavage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant and protective activity of B. vulgaris on DNA cleavage. <span style="font-size: medium;"...

background contamination of therapeutic recombinant proteins with residual host cell dna must be controlled under the regulatory standards. objectives the current study established a new rapid, sensitive real time polymerase chain reaction (pcr) approach to measure the reliably of the residual escherichia coli (e. coli) host cell genomic dna in the recombinant streptokinase and alfa interferon ...

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 ...

High-throughput immune repertoire sequencing is promising to lead to new statistical diagnostic tools for medicine and biology. Successful implementations of these methods require a correct characterization, analysis, and interpretation of these data sets. We present IGoR (Inference and Generation Of Repertoires)-a comprehensive tool that takes B or T cell receptor sequence reads and quantitati...

A new click chemistry generated artificial metallonuclease is reported in the Research Article by Andrew Kellett et al. (e202305759). The oxidative DNA damaging properties of a polynuclear copper binding ligand called TC-Thio demonstrated. Copper-TC-Thio binds minor groove genomic and promotes damage via superoxide linked mechanism. inset picture shows ions, bound to ligand, melting into duplex...

To analyze mutation in tomato genomic DNA by RAPD technology, certain factors influencing RAPD amplification, such as, DNA template, Taq DNA polymerase, Mg, dNTPs and primer, were studied to optimize RAPD amplification reaction system. RAPD amplification of tomato genomic DNA after low energy ion implantation along with soybean DNA was successfully performed. Compared to the control, genomic DN...
