Abstract : Background: Controversy surrounds the time period when Indigenous Mexican-African admixture occurred. Most researchers assume this admixture took place after the Atlantic Slave Trade. But, Spanish eyewitness accounts, Mayan skeletons with sickle cell anemia, and West African skeletal remains generally,indicate that the..

Introduction: Dramatic improvements in the beef cattle industry have been made over the last five decades. Specifically, the Angus breed has evolved from a small framed maternal breed to a breed with greater muscling and growth characteristics. Major increases have been observed in traits such as birth weight, weaning weight, yearli..

Abstract: The objective of the current study was to evaluate phenotypic differences and SNP located on three candidate genes for possible associations with growth and carcass traits in a population of Angus cows sired by modern phenotype Angus bulls and multi-generational Angus bulls born from 1960-2006. Quantitative analyses re..

Summary: Background:PNPLA3 rs738409 (C10109G) polymorphism has been identified as a predisposingfactor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, fibrosis, alcoholic cirrhosis and elevation of serumalanine transaminase in the human. However, no simple method for its assay is available. Hence, this research work was undertaken to dev..

Abstract: The Niger-Congo (NC) Superfamily of languages is the largest family of languages spoken in Africa. Researchers have assumed that the NC speakers originated in West Africa in the Inland Niger Delta. The research indicates that the NC speakers originated in the Saharan Highlands 12kya and belonged to the Ounanian culture..

Abstract: The article reports the frequency distributions of the mutants of Alu elements in the human genome. They are remarkably complex and, yet, almost identical for each chromosome, suggesting a universal mechanism for base substitutions in Alu-elements and, possibly, other retro-transposons as well. Conceivably, these mutat..

Abstract: Mutations in the Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene are responsible for 15-20% of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) cases. Severity of the ALS phenotype is dependent on genetic background for mice carrying the mG86R SOD1 transgene. A BAC (149m19) containing several candidate genes (Serf, Smn, Naip2..

Abstract : Although SPINK1, which encodes the pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor (PSTI), has been firmly established as a chronic pancreatitis-predisposing gene, the causal variant within the most common c.101A>G (p.Asn34Ser)-containing haplotype remains to be identified. The low penetrance of this haplotype implies a minor e..
