XRCC1 polymorphisms and haplotypes in Mexican patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Authors: J.P. Meza-Espinoza, V. Peralta-Leal, M. Gutierrez-Angulo,N. Macias-Gomez, M.L. Ayala-Madrigal, P. Barros-Nu�±ez,J. Duran-Gonzalez and E. Leal-Ugarte
We examined the influence of the Arg194Trp, Arg280His, and Arg399Gln polymorphisms of XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1) on the development of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in 120 ALL patients and 120 controls in Mexico. All of them were genotyped for these polymorphisms, using polymerase chain rea.. Read More»

Molecular phylogeny of the Bactrian camel based on mitochondrial Cytochrome b gene sequences
Authors: L. Ming, L. Yi, FC. Guo, S. Siriguleng and J. Jirimutu
The Bactrian camel is an important domesticated animal providing milk, meat, and other products in desert countries. In this study, 111 individuals representing 11 domestic Bactrian camel breeds from China, Mongolia, Russia, and one wild Bactrian camel group from Mongolia were selected for the preparation of mitochondrial DNA. The 1140-bp fragments of the.. Read More»

Genome-wide association study of meat quality traits in chicken
Authors: T. Zhang, Q.C. Fan, J.Y. Wang, G.X. Zhang, Y.P. Gu and Y. Tang
Meat quality traits are very important in the poultry industry. To identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and candidate genes affecting meat quality traits, a genome-wide association study was performed using the Illumina chicken 60K SNP beadchip in Jinghai yellow chicken. Four meat quality traits were measured. Two SNPs reached 5% Bonferroni gen.. Read More»

Polymorphism and haplotype analyses of swine leukocyte antigen DQA exons 2, 3, 4, and their associations with piglet diarrhea in Chinese native pig
Authors: X.Y. Huang, Q.L. Yang, J.H. Yuan and S.B. Gun
In this study, 290 Chinese native Yantai black pig piglets were investigated to identify gene polymorphisms, for haplotype reconstruction, and to determine the association between piglet diarrhea and swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) class II DQA exons 2, 3, and 4 by polymerase chain reaction-single stranded conformational polymorphism and cloning sequencing...

Development and characterization of single nucleotide polymorphism markers in Camellia sinensis (Theaceae)
Authors: C.C. Zhang, L.Y. Wang, K. Wei and H. Cheng
Tea is the second most popular non-alcoholic beverage in the world. In recent years, several molecular markers have been used in genetic studies of the tea plant. Yet, only a few single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported. Here, we identified 818 putative SNPs from expressed sequence tag (EST) databases for the .. Read More»

Associations of serotonin receptor gene HTR3A, HTR3B, and HTR3A haplotypes with bipolar disorder in Chinese patients
Authors: J. Jian, C. Li, J. Xu, D. Qiao, G. Mi, X. Chen and M. Tang
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in HTR3A and HTR3B have been reported to be associated with bipolar disorder in European and Japanese populations. We explored the roles of 21 tag SNPs in HTR3A and HTR3B in susceptibility to bipolar disorder in a Chinese cohort. Twenty-one Tag SNPs were genotyped in a study consisting of 130 patients with bipolar di.. Read More»

CYP4F2 gene single nucleotide polymorphism is associated with ischemic stroke
Authors: H.-Q. Yan, Y. Yuan, P. Zhang, Z. Huang, L. Chang and Y.-K. Gui
The objective of this study was to explore the relationship between CYP4F2 gene polymorphism and ischemic stroke (IS) in the Han Chinese population. We performed a case-control study to genotype four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs2108622, rs3093100, rs3093105, rs3093135) in the CYF4F2 gene. The genotype and haplotype distributions were compare.. Read More»

Mitochondrial haplogroup D4 confers resistance and haplogroup B is a genetic risk factor for high-altitude pulmonary edema among Han Chinese
Authors: Y.J. Luo W.X. Gao S.Z. Li X.W. Huang Y. Chen F.Y. Liu Q.Y. Huang Y.Q. Gao
High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is a life-threatening condition caused by acute exposure to high altitude. Accumulating evidence suggests that genetic factors play an important role in the etiology of HAPE. However, conclusions from association studies have been hindered by limited sample size due to the rareness of this disease. It is known that mitoch.. Read More»
