The 104 samples of Squaliobarbus curriculus were collected from four localities in Yellow River and one region in Yangtze River. Analyses of the first hypervariable region of mitochondrial DNA control region of 555bp revealed only 15 polymorphism sites and defined 19 haplotypes. Low-to-moderate levels of haplotype diversity and low nucleotide diversity were observed in Yellow River populations (h=0...
To evaluate the clinical significance of microRNA (miR)-130b–Runt domain transcription factor (RUNX3) axis and its effects on oncogenic phenotypes of human epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).QRT-PCR was performed to detect the expression of miR-130b and RUNX3 mRNA in 100 EOC and 20 normal ovarian tissues. The associations between miR-130b and/or RUNX3 expression and various clinicopathological features...
In this article, high-throughput de novo transcriptomic sequencing was performed in Alexandrium catenella, which provided the first view of the gene repertoire in this dinoflagellate based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies. A total of 118,304 unigenes were identified with an average length of 673bp (base pair). Of these unigenes, 77,936 (65.9%) were annotated with known proteins based...
Ligon lintless-1 (Li1) is a monogenic dominant mutant of Gossypium hirsutum (upland cotton) with a phenotype of impaired vegetative growth and short lint fibers. Despite years of research involving genetic mapping and gene expression profile analysis of Li1 mutant ovule tissues, the gene remains uncloned and the underlying pathway of cotton fiber elongation is still unclear. In this study, we report...
The endosperm of the cereal crop is an important nutrient source for humans. It also acts as a critical integrator of plant seed growth and development. Despite its importance, the comprehensive understanding in regulating of endosperm development in rice remains elusive. Here, we performed a genomic survey comprising the identification and functional characterization of the endosperm-specific genes...
Reactive oxygen species are considered to play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its complications. 8-Oxoguanine, which is one of the major oxidation base lesions produced by reactive oxygen species, may cause G:C to T:A transversion mutations because it can mispair with adenine. hMTH1 (human mutT homolog 1), hOGG1 (human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1) and MUTYH (human...
In DNA microarray studies, gene-set analysis (GSA) has become the focus of gene expression data analysis. GSA utilizes the gene expression profiles of functionally related gene sets in Gene Ontology (GO) categories or priori-defined biological classes to assess the significance of gene sets associated with clinical outcomes or phenotypes. Many statistical approaches have been proposed to determine...
The four-and-a-half LIM protein 2 (FHL2) was originally identified to be expressed abundantly in the heart, as well as in a wide range of tissues demonstrated in various studies. The human FHL2 gene expresses different transcripts which are known to differ only in the 5′UTR region. However, little is known about the functional role of the different variants and the mechanism of gene regulation. In...
