The Genomic Resources Collection is a separate, independently managed part of the natural history collections Finnish Museum Natural History Luomus specifically intended for consumptive research. GRC policy deals with materials that are archived very purpose enabling study biological diversity at genome level, DNA extractions animal, fungal and plant specimens, animal tissue samples stored deep...

Genomic imprinting is the biological process whereby a gene or genomic domain exists in a state of epigenetic differentiation that depends upon its parent of origin. Importantly, the establishment and propagation of these parent-specific genomic conformations does not alter the primary DNA sequence comprised of A, C, G, and T nucleotides. Genomic imprints may be covalent (DNA methylation) or no...

A word-based genomic signature for a group of related genomic sequences is a set of characteristic subsequences. Unlike most existing genomic signatures, a word-based genomic signature provides insights that are directly applicable to the problem of identifying functional DNA elements. The effectiveness of the word-based genomic signature method is shown by analyzing promoter sequences for gene...

CYP3A4 probably has the broadest catalytic activity of any cytochrome P450. It is a crucial task to test new drug candidates in a reliable system for their ability to induce expression of this enzyme. Firstly, a total of 300 bp core distal enhancer of CYP3A4 XREM region (-7972/-7673) were amplified from human genomic DNA. The PCR product was then ligated into a human secretory alkaline phosphat...

to remove unfavorable traits of new cereal tritipyrum (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb), various crosses between primary tritipyrum lines (female) with iranian bread wheat varieties (2n=6x=42, aabbdd) was performed and a f2 selfing population consisted of 1810 possible secondary tritipyrum seeds (2n=6x=42, aabbd(0-14) eb(0-14)) were produced. the chromosome constitution and homology index of 11 plants of th...
