Abstract:
A genetic approach to lowering protease (plasmin) levels in milk, requires the presence of polymorphism of bovine plasminogen. This study was conducted to determine to what extent genetic polymorphism exists in dairy cattle. Bovine plasminogen was first purified from Holstein cow plasma by affinity chromatography on Lysine-Sepharose and antibodies to bovine plasminogen were raised by monthly intramuscular injection of the isolated bovine plasminogen into rabbits. For plasminogen phenotyping, blood samples were collected at random from 50 Holstein and Ayrshire cattle, and plasminogen was isolat

Abstract:
The mammalian immune defense consists of two systems, which are interconnected and co-operate to provide host defense. The innate immune system is always active and detects and responds to non-self without delay. The adaptive immune system has a lag phase, but is more specific and has got a memory. The innate immune system relies on pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to detect molecular patterns signaling microbial presence. This thesis focuses on a centrally placed family of PRRs, namely the Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and on mannan-binding lectin (MBL), a PRR which initiates the lectin act

Abstract:
The evolution of three genes from the CONSTANS-LIKE gene family is studied in Brassica nigra. We use a combination of population genetic and phylogenetic techniques in order to assess the relative importance of selection and demography on the pattern of DNA variation. The analysis is complicated by the fact that they are recent duplicates of each other and hence there is a potential redundancy factor that has to be considered. The relationship between two of the genes, COa and COb, is however much closer than between any relationship to the third gene, COL1. The three genes are all suspected t

Cichlid fishes from the East African Rift lakes Victoria, Tanganyika and Malawi represent a preeminent example of replicated and rapid evolutionary radiation. In this single natural system, numerous morphological (eg. jaw and tooth shape, color patterns, visual sensitivity), behavioral (eg. bower-building) and physiological (eg. development, neural patterning) phenotypes have emerged, much akin to a mutagenic screen.

The present study aimed to gain better insights into the distribution of genomic variation, in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms, within the human genome.  Using set theory, the average SNP density of the human genome was found to be 2.6 SNPs per kilobase.  This figure decreased with increasing evolutionary depth, i.e. conservation.  The conserved exonic, intronic subsets had a lower SNP density than the conserved intergenic subset, suggesting that the conserved exonic and intronic regions are under similar strengths of selective pressure while conserved intergenic regions are under

The androgen receptor plays a critical role in both normal and neoplastic prostate growth. The first exon of the androgen receptor contains a polymorphic CAG repeat region that has been implicated in the development of prostate cancer. Epidemiologic studies suggest that shorter CAG repeats are associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer. Interestingly, the length of the CAG repeat region in the androgen receptor is inversely correlated with the transactivational competence of the receptor. This provides a biologically plausible mechanism by which the more active androgen receptors wit
