...onine. We found only one homozygous and heterozygous carrier for this polymorphism. Healthy siblings of the carrier individuals and control group were screened and found as negative for this polymorphism. In-silico analysis through mutation taster, exon splicing enhancer and polyphin2 software predicted this polymorphism as a site broken and possibly damaging. These findings suggest that BDNF polymorphism Val66Met has some possible role in OCD development in P...

Xmn1 restriction site was present at 158 bp upstream of the Gamma globin gene on chromosome 11 of positive patients (GenBank KY927385). Fetal hemoglobin level in Xmn1 (-/+) and (+/+) was 59.1% and 19% respectively which minimize their transfusion frequency to 30 days in comparison to 7-15 days in Xmn1 -/...

For LCT-22018G/A, 43.75% lactose intolerant individuals showed homozygous GG genotype, while 43.58% patients showed heterozygous GA genotype. Thus, different variants of genotype -13910T/C and -22018G/A of the individuals were found to be associated with the development of lactose intolerance in patients of the studied popula...

This is first nonsense mutation being reported causing HSP with complex clinical features and early onset. Further, functional exploration will be required for genotype phenotype correlation.

The resultant variety exhibited the highest seed yield (2826 kg ha-1) in NURYT compared to other contesting advanced genotypes during 2008-09. Surhan-2012 was performed better for seed yield (1460.8 kg ha- 1) as compared to parent genotype (800kg/ha seed yield) in advanced station yield trials...

All the normal individuals were lacking the above stated 2 SNPs. There is thus strong correlation between SNPs of ESR1 gene and breast cancer and hence, can be used as a significant marker in the determination of breast cancer....

The data was arranged, and MAN2B1 was selected for the DNA sequencing. Protein homology was analyzed by the pymol tool to predict the effect on the mutant protein. A novel missense mutation c. 2710A>T; p.904Tyr>Ser was detected, and co-segregation analysis was established in the complex neurological family. The ...

The variant was absent from the DNA of 500 ethnically matched control samples as well as from all public databases. In conclusion, this study reports a family with clinical features of distal arthrogryposis type 5D and extends the genotype spectrum of the disorder. ...

However, in healthy individuals, GG allele was found in 70%, GA in 20%, and AA in 10% population. These findings proposed that the IL-10 gene (AA polymorphism) at the -1082 position is most prevalent in local breast cancer patients in Pakistan....
