Association between RNF41 gene c.-206 T > A genetic polymorphism and risk of congenital heart diseases in the Chinese Mongolian population

Authors: Y. Zhang, S.Q. Jin, W.X. Li, G.Q. Gao, K. Zhang and J.L. Huang

This study aimed to explore the association between ring finger protein 41 (RNF41) c.-206 T > A variant and susceptibility to congenital heart disease (CHD) in the Chinese Mongolian population. The association between RNF41 gene c.-206 T > A polymorphism and CHD was examined in two independent case-control studies consis.. Read More»

Authors: B.S. Hsie, J.Z. Brito, M.X. Vila Nova, L.R. Borges-Paluch, M.V. Silva and V.M.S.T. Donato

Sugarcane culture is an important source of income for the Brazilian economy. The aim of this study was to identify somaclonal variation in sugarcane varieties RB943365 and RB92579 arising from micropropagation using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) DNA markers. The evaluated plants were generated from the in vitro propagation of shoot tips grown in MS.. Read More»

Hemoglobin (Hb) Val de Marne (Hb Footscray) in Brazil: the first case report

Authors: J.V. Okumura, E.L.T. Shimauti, D.G.H. Silva, L.S. Torres,E. Belini-Junior, R.G. Oliveira, E.V. Patussi, J.C.M. Herrero and C.R. Bonini-Domingos

Hemoglobin (Hb) variants involving alpha-chains are less common in the global population than Hb variants resulting from beta-chain alterations. Generally, alpha-chain Hb variants are caused by point mutations affecting alpha-1 and/or alpha-2 genes of the alpha-globin cluster (HBA1 and HBA2). In Brazil, the most prevalent alph.. Read More»
