Introduction: Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder among women which is diagnosed by the growth of endometrial tissue outside of uterus and is mainly accompanied by severe pelvic pain and infertility. P53 also known as cellular tumor antigen P53 inside codons 11, 72 and 248 are contained with single nucleotide changes in which tends to be nearly rampant.This will probably b...

background: trichomonas vaginalis is the agent of urogenital tract infection that causes human trichomoniasis with some serious health complications. more understanding about genetic features of the parasite can be helpful in the study of the pathogenesis, drug susceptibility and epidemiology of the infection. for this end,we conducted analysis of the actin gene of t. vaginalis by applying the ...

Objective(s) Primary or adult type hypolactasia, the most common enzyme deficiency in the world, is due to reduced lactase activity in the intestinal cell after weaning. Lactase non-persistence is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. A DNA variant, single nucleotide polymorphism C/T−13910 which is located on 13910 base pairs (bp) upstream of the lactase gene (LCT) at chromosome 2 has been...

BACKGROUND The recent advent of genome-wide molecular platforms has facilitated our understanding of the human genome and disease, particularly copy number aberrations. We performed genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism-array in hereditary coagulopathy to delineate the extent of copy number mutations and to assess its diagnostic utility. DESIGN AND METHODS The study subjects were 17 pati...

Genome-wide association studies have proven to be highly effective at defining relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and clinical phenotypes in complex diseases. Establishing a mechanistic link between a noncoding SNP and the clinical outcome is a significant hurdle in translating associations into biological insight. We demonstrate an approach to assess the functional co...

We describe a rapid and easily automated phylogenetic grouping technique based on analysis of bacterial genome single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). We selected 13 SNPs derived from a complete sequence analysis of 11 essential genes previously used for multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of 30 Escherichia coli strains representing the genetic diversity of the species. The 13 SNPs were localized...
