Molecular genetics of abdominal aortic aneurysm
… Genes were then classified according to their molecular functions. A set of consistently differentially expressed genes were confirmed using qRT-PCR with Taqman probes on a larger sample size compared with the microarray experiment. All pathway and network analysis on the differentially …

The molecular genetics of familial cardiomyopathy
Introduction The cardiomyopathies are responsible for approximately 5.9 of 100,000 deaths in the general global population and in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), these myocardial diseases are observed in 21.4% of patients with heart failure. The precise etiology of the cardiomyopathies is currently not …

The molecular genetics of Type 2 diabetes
… aim of this dissertation was to investigate the molecular basis of Type 2 diabetes with particular emphasis on the role of the glucokinase gene. Other work studied specific mutations in the tRNA<sup>Leu(UUR)</sup> gene of mitochondrial DNA and in the glucagon receptor gene. <br></br><br></br> The …

MOLECULAR GENETICS OF HAEMOPHILIA A IN SINGAPORE
… of the causative of both indeirect and direct molecular analysis, 82.6% (38/46) of the affected families in this study were found to be informative. In conclusion, there is definitely a need of a more exhaustive study in this field as to enhance the level of standard and sophistication of …

X-LINKED RETINOSCHISIS ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY, MOLECULAR GENETICS AND TREATMENT
X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) is a congenital progressive inherited retinal disease that affects the entire retina and is one of the more common causes of vision loss from retinal degeneration affecting young men,. The progression is variable but seems to be relatively stationary in the ages 6 to …

Molecular genetics of the imprinted gene - SPROUTY3 (SPRY3)
Sprouty proteins are key regulators of cell growth and branching morphogenesis during development. Human SPRY3 which maps to the pseudoautosomal region 2, undergoes random X-inactivation in females and preferential Y-inactivation in males, behaving as though genetically X-linked. Spry3 is widely …

Comparative molecular genetics of the German Shepherd dog
Microsatellite markers were used to measure genetic diversity and population differentiation within and between domestic dog breeds. The German Shepherd Dog was compared with typical outbred mongrel dogs, Dachshunds, Staffordshire Bull Terriers and a cohort of other pedigreed dogs representing 30 …

Molecular genetics of the T cell receptor alpha chain
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used in combination with oligonucleotide probe and nucleotide sequence analysis to examine T cell receptor (TCR) alpha chain diversity in fetal and adult thymi. Transcripts were amplified using various V$\alpha$ and C$\alpha$ specific primers and the cloned …

Molecular genetics of triazine resistance in Senecio vulgaris L
Herbicide resistance in weed species is a major problem of modem agriculture in which intensive use of herbicides is made. An understanding of the mechanism of resistance and how it is expressed is essential to both the future design of herbicides and their continued use in the field. Triazine …

Molecular genetics and microbiology of bioremediation using methane-oxidising bacteria
Methanotrophic bacteria can grow on methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b is a Gram negative, methanotrophic bacterium, which can convert methane to methanol by either particulate (pMMO) or soluble (sMMO) methane monooxygenase. The sMMO comprises three …

Molecular Genetics in Rhodopseudomonas Sphaeroides: Transformation, Plasmids, and Gene Cloning
A Tris-dependent transformation system was developed for R. sphaeroides. Washing the cells with 0.5M Tris-buffer, pH 7.2, at 0(DEGREES)C prior to exposure to DNA was found to be necessary for inducing a competent state for DNA uptake. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and Ca('2+) were also determined to be …

Molecular genetics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in South Africa
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heritable disorder characterised by progressive degeneration of the right ventricular myocardium, arrhythmias and an increased risk of sudden death at a young age. Fourteen chromosomal loci have been linked to ARVC and nine disease genes …

Molecular Genetics and Subcellular Localization of Flavonoid Metabolism in Arabidopsis
There are at least two models describing how the enzymes of metabolic pathways are arranged in living cells. The first is a stochastic model, where enzymes are freely-diffusing in the aqueous environment of the cell, and the second, the metabolon model, has pathway enzymes organized as enzyme …

Molecular Genetics of Endocrine Induced Regression of Mouse Leydig Cell Tumors
… vivo</em> endocrine carcinogenesis model. High molecular weight DNA isolated from liver, hyperplastic chryptorchid testes, primary Leydig cell tumors and transplanted tumor lines progressing to estrogen nondependence for growth, was studied using Southern blot analysis and the in-gel …
