In this study, we analyzed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in GH intron regions and their associations with growth traits in large yellow croaker, Larimichthys crocea, from Zhejiang and Fujian stocks. The results of PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism showed two haplotypes of intron 1, named AA and AB genotypes, in Zhejiang stock. AB exhibited an SNP at position 196 (G A) that was negatively correlated with body height and positively correlated with standard length/body height (P 0.05). Two different genotypes, CC and CD, were identified in intron 2 in Fujian stock, with CD showing an SNP at position 692 (T C). The CD genotype had a significantly positive correlation with both weight and total length (P 0.01). These basic data highlight the potential for using GH as a genetic marker of fish growth in marker assisted selection.展开更多

Direct sequence analysis of exon 17 showed that homozygous nonsense mutation was two alleles single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at the codon 1058 (CAC→CAT). Exons 18-21were not detected with any significantly mutation. The INSR gene His1058C→ T substitution collecting rate and insulin resistance were significantly higher in the PCOS group than in the control group (P = 0. 0293, P<0. 05, P<0. 01). Conclusion It is suggested that the SNP in codon 1058 of the INSR gene might be related with the insulin resistance in PCOS patients, which has hereditary tendency. And the missense mutation,nonsense mutation and frameshift mutation at exons 18-21 in tyrosine protein kinase region of INSR gene for PCOS patients were not frequently observed.展开更多

The results were as follows: ① HPV16 E6, E7 DNA was found in 25/35 specimens (71. 4%),which proved again HPV16 Infection an important event in cervical carcinogenesis. However only 11/35 (31.42% ) bad E6 and E7 ORFs simultaneously, 3/35 (8. 57%) and 11/35 (31. 42% ) had only E6 or E7 respectively. ② No mutation and LOH (Loss of Heterozygote) of p53 exon 7 were found in allof 35 specimens. Additionally in the present study, we developed a non-isotopic PCR-SSCP method.展开更多
