Objective Globozoospermia is a rare syndrome with an incidence of less than 0.1% among infertile men. Researchers have recently identified a large deletion, about 200 kbp, encompassing the whole length of DPY19L2 or mutations in SPATA16 and PICK1 genes associated with globozoospermia. The aim of this study was to analyze the DPY19L2 gene deletion using polymerase chain reaction technique for th...

Abstract A central goal of synthetic biology is to predictably and efficiently reprogram living systems perform computations carry out specific biological tasks. Although there have been many advances in the bio-computational design systems, these mainly applied microorganisms or cell lines; programming animal physiology remains challenging for because system complexity. Here, we present a bact...

background and objectives: phospholipases are a group of enzymes that breakdown phospholipid molecules producing second products. these second products play a diverse role in the cell such as signal transduction and digestion in humans. in this study, the effect of phospholipids on the expression of pld genes of a. fumigatus was investigated. the pld genes of this fungus were also investigated ...

a new strategy for construction of synthetic gene encoding human basic fibroblast growth factor comprising dna annealing-ligation and augmentation by polymerase chain reaction was introduced. the sequence of the gene and corresponding amino acid chain were modified in order to increase stability of the protein. first, 300 bp and 160 bp fragments of the gene were assembled from 18 oligonucleotid...
