Systematics and taxonomy of hares of the genus Lepus (Lagomorpha) are under contentious debate, and phylogenetic relationships among many taxa are not well understood. Here we study genetic differentiation and evolutionary relationships among North African hares, currently considered subspecies of Lepus capensis , cape hares ( L. capensis ) from the Cape province in South Africa, and brown hares ( L. europeaus ) from Europe and Anatolia, using maternally (mtDNA) and biparentally (allozymes) inherited markers. A polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis of a c. 1.8 kb long segment of the mitochondrial control region using eight hexanucleotide-recognizing restriction endonucleases yielded 28 haplotypes, and horizontal starch gel electrophoresis of proteins encoded by 25 structural gene loci revealed 52 alleles at 18 polymorphic loci. Diverse phylogenetic analyses (neighbor joining dendrogram, median joining network, multidimensional scaling of pairwise distances, AMOVA, F -statistics, hierarchical F -statistics) of genetic variants revealed marked substructuring of mtDNA into three phylogeographic groups, namely an African, a central European, and an Anatolian, but a somewhat less pronounced overall differentiation of the nuclear genome, despite a relatively high number of population-specific (private) alleles. However, all our results are not incongruent with Petter's (1959: Mammalia 23 , 41; 1961: Z. f. Säugetierkunde 26 , 30; 1972 : Société Des Sciences Naturelles et Physiques du Maroc 52 , 122) hypothesis that North African hares generally belong to L. capensis and that brown hares should be included in this species as well. 相似文献

The detection of P53 alteration by serological method is easier to perform, does not require tumor tissues and is of interest for patients monitoring. In this study, we described the development of a home made ELISA test based on recombinant human P53 protein produced in Pichia pastoris and used as antigen for the detection of serum p53-Abs in colorectal carcinoma patients. The human P53 was secreted as a His-tagged protein by recombinant KM71 strain (Kα21) via the peptide signal α of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mating type gene. The recombinant P53-His was able to detect p53-Abs in 23.4 % of patients. Serum p53-Abs correlated significantly with surgical treatment (P = 0.007), relapse during follow-up (P = 0.036), depth of invasion (P = 0.036) and the level of CA19-9 (P = 0.034). Survival analysis showed that patients negative for serum p53-Abs exhibited a prolonged disease free survival period (P log rank = 0.012). In conclusion, the secreted recombinant human P53-His produced in P. pastoris seems to be a useful antigen for detection of serum p53 Abs in patients with colorectal carcinoma. 相似文献

Mutations in the CLDN14 gene, encoding the tight junction claudin 14 protein has been reported to date in an autosomal recessive form of isolated hearing loss DFNB29. In order to identify the contribution of CLDN14 to inherited deafness in Moroccan population, we performed a genetic analysis of this gene in 80 Moroccan familial cases. Our results show the presence of 7 mutations: 6 being conservative and one leading to a missense mutation (C11T) which was found at heterozygous and homozygous states, with a general frequency of 6.87%. The pathogenicity of the resulting T4M substitution is under discussion. 相似文献

Whole genome sequences (WGS) greatly increase our ability to precisely infer population genetic parameters, demographic processes, and selection signatures. However, WGS may still be not affordable for a representative number of individuals/populations. In this context, our goal was to assess the efficiency of several SNP genotyping strategies by testing their ability to accurately estimate parameters describing neutral diversity and to detect signatures of selection. We analysed 110 WGS at 12× coverage for four different species, i.e., sheep, goats and their wild counterparts. From these data we generated 946 data sets corresponding to random panels of 1K to 5M variants, commercial SNP chips and exome capture, for sample sizes of five to 48 individuals. We also extracted low‐coverage genome resequencing of 1×, 2× and 5× by randomly subsampling reads from the 12× resequencing data. Globally, 5K to 10K random variants were enough for an accurate estimation of genome diversity. Conversely, commercial panels and exome capture displayed strong ascertainment biases. Besides the characterization of neutral diversity, the detection of the signature of selection and the accurate estimation of linkage disequilibrium (LD) required high‐density panels of at least 1M variants. Finally, genotype likelihoods increased the quality of variant calling from low coverage resequencing but proportions of incorrect genotypes remained substantial, especially for heterozygote sites. Whole genome resequencing coverage of at least 5× appeared to be necessary for accurate assessment of genomic variations. These results have implications for studies seeking to deploy low‐density SNP collections or genome scans across genetically diverse populations/species showing similar genetic characteristics and patterns of LD decay for a wide variety of purposes. 相似文献

Involvement of the cardiac ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2), the major calcium release channel on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in cardiomyocytes, has recently been shown to be involved in at least two forms of sudden cardiac death (SCD): (1) Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) or familial polymorphic VT (FPVT); and (2) Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 2 (ARVD2). Eleven RyR2 missense mutations have been linked to these diseases. All eleven RyR2 mutations cluster into 3 regions of RyR2 that are homologous to the three malignant hyperthermia (MH)/central core disease (CCD) mutation regions of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel RyR1. MH/CCD RyR1 mutations have been shown to alter calcium-induced calcium release. Sympathetic nervous system stimulation leads to phosphorylation of RyR2 by protein kinase A (PKA). PKA phosphorylation of RyR2 activates the channel. In conditions associated with high rates of SCD such as heart failure RyR2 is PKA hyperphosphorylated resulting in "leaky" channels. SR calcium leak during diastole can generate "delayed after depolarizations" that can trigger fatal cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., VT). We propose that RyR2 mutations linked to genetic forms of catecholaminergic-induced SCD may alter the regulation of the channel resulting in increased SR calcium leak during sympathetic stimulation. 相似文献

Mutations in the cardiac potassium ion channel gene KCNQ1 (voltage-gated K(+) channel subtype KvLQT1) cause LQT1, the most common type of hereditary long Q-T syndrome. KvLQT1 mutations prolong Q-T by reducing the repolarizing cardiac current [slow delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(Ks) )], but, for reasons that are not well understood, the clinical phenotypes may vary considerably even for carriers of the same mutation, perhaps explaining the mode of inheritance. At present, only currents expressed by LQT1 mutants have been studied, and it is unknown whether abnormal subunits are transported to the cell surface. Here, we have examined for the first time trafficking of KvLQT1 mutations and correlated the results with the I(Ks) currents that were expressed. Two missense mutations, S225L and A300T, produced abnormal currents, and two others, Y281C and Y315C, produced no currents. However, all four KvLQT1 mutations were detected at the cell surface. S225L, Y281C, and Y315C produced dominant negative effects on wild-type I(Ks) current, whereas the mutant with the mildest dysfunction, A300T, did not. We examined trafficking of a severe insertion deletion mutant Delta544 and detected this protein at the cell surface as well. We compared the cellular and clinical phenotypes and found a poor correlation for the severely dysfunctional mutations. 相似文献

Growth, nitrogen fixation and ammonium assimilation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) subjected to iron deficiency 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A greenhouse experiment was carried out aiming to study the effect of iron deficiency on nitrogen fixation and ammonium assimilation in common bean nodules. Host-plant and nodule growth, symbiotic nitrogen fixation, glutamine synthetase (GS) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) were analyzed in two common bean varieties subjected to iron deficiency. Results showed that host-plant and nodules growth, nitrogen fixation and GS activity decreased when under Fe-deficiency against an important increase of ammonium accumulation and GDH activity. Tolerant variety Flamingo is clearly less affected by iron deficiency than the sensitive one, Coco blanc. The allocation of iron to nodules and Fe use-efficiency for nodule growth and symbiotic nitrogen fixation were on the basis of the symbiotic performance of Flamingo under iron deprivation. Under Fe-deficiency, GDH take over GS the ammonium assimilation activity, particularly in the tolerant variety. 相似文献

In order to study the association of HLA-A, -B and/or DRB1, DQB1 and the nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), 141 patients affected
with NPC were typed for the HLA class I by serology method of microlymphocytotoxicity. Among these patients 101 were genotyped
for HLA class II system by the PCR-SSP technique. HLA typing results were compared to those of 116 controls. We found that
the HLA-A31 and -A33 antigens were significantly more expressed in patients than in the controls (P = 0.016 and 0.010, respectively) and the HLA-A19 antigen, was significantly more frequent in patients when compared to the
controls (P = 0.007). The HLA-DRB1*03 and DRB1*13 alleles were significantly more frequent in patients as compared to the controls. The
DRB1*01 allele was expressed with a frequency of 20.69% in the controls whereas it was only detected in 3.96% of the NPC patients.
Furthermore, the DQB1*05 allele was expressed at a frequency which was significantly less important in affected patient (P = 0.03), whereas, the DQB1*02 allele was more frequent in patients (P = 0.643 × 10−4). Thus our study revealed a significant increase of HLA-A31, A33, A19, B16, B53 and DRB1*03, DRB1*13 and DQB1*02 alleles
in our patients. These markers could play a predisposing role in the development of NPC. In contrast, a decrease of HLA-B14,
-B35 and DRB1*01 and DQB1*05 alleles was found suggesting a likely protective effect. 相似文献
