Karyotype analysis refers to the pairing and grouping of chromosomes to reveal whether the organism accords with the inherent chromosomal characteristics, to determine if the organism has chromosomal abnormalities. Karyotype analysis can detect whether there are abnormalities in chromatin length, centromere position, the ratio of long and short arms, and the presence or absence of satellites. ...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome III encodes 11 autonomously replicating sequence (ARS) elements that function as chromosomal replicators. The essential 11-bp ARS consensus sequence (ACS) that binds the origin recognition complex (ORC) has been experimentally defined for most of these replicators but not for ARS318 (HMR-I), which is one of the HMR silencers. In this study, we performed a ...
In order to evaluate the cytogenetic effects of low doses of radiation by internal or external exposure to iodine-131, we analysed chromosomal aberrations (CA) in peripheral blood lymphocytes from 34 subjects working in the nuclear medicine departments in Iran. The studied groups consisted of 26 individuals (Group A) who were employed in these centres without any evidence of radiation exposure by ...
