MINING NON-MODEL GENOMIC LIBRARIES FOR MICROSATELLITES: BAC VERSUS EST LIBRARIES AND THE GENERATION OF ALLELIC RICHNESS

Mining non-model genomic libraries for microsatellites: BAC versus EST libraries and the generation of allelic richness

Abstract Background Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are tandemly repeated sequence motifs common in genomic nucleotide sequence that often harbor significant variation in repeat number.Frequently used as molecular markers, SSRs are increasingly identified via in silico approaches.Two common classes of genomic resources that can be mined are bacteria

Post-translational regulation of Oct4 transcriptional activity.

Oct4 is a key component of Laptop the molecular circuitry which regulates embryonic stem cell proliferation and differentiation.It is essential for maintenance of undifferentiated, pluripotent cell populations, and accomplishes these tasks by binding DNA in multiple heterodimer and homodimer configurations.Very little is known about how formation o

Hybrid Artificial Bee Colony and Monarchy Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (HABC-MBOA)-based cluster head selection for WSNs

Energy efficiency is considered as the most potential issue in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), since they incorporate limited sized batteries that could not be recharged or replaced.The energy possessed by the sensor nodes needs to be optimally utilized in order to extend the lifetime expectancy with guaranteed QoS in the network.In this paper, a
