Identification Of Inherited And De Novo Exomic Variations In An Emirati Family With Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Asmaa Samir Abdelaziz Refaey
Identification Of Inherited And De Novo Exomic Variations In An Emirati Family With Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Asmaa Samir Abdelaziz Refaey
Biology Theses
Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are a heterogenous group of disorders that affect children at any point of development and lead to mental and motor function deficits. Often, the underlying cause could be genetic and inherited. This study investigated possible genetic variations that could have led to these neurological abnormalities and other genetic disorders in an Emirati family. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was used to sequence the protein-coding regions of the genome to identify potential de novo and inherited variants that are associated with disorders in this family.
WES of DNA from the parents and ten children were performed. Several variants were …
Molecular And Physiological Assessment Of Salinity Stress Tolerance In Transgenic Arabidopsis Lines Expressing A Solanum Tuberosum Ribosome-Binding Protein, Onoud Rashed Saeed Ali Alyammahi
Molecular And Physiological Assessment Of Salinity Stress Tolerance In Transgenic Arabidopsis Lines Expressing A Solanum Tuberosum Ribosome-Binding Protein, Onoud Rashed Saeed Ali Alyammahi
Biology Theses
Ribosomal proteins are highly conserved components of basal cellular organelles, primarily associated with translation of mRNA leading to protein synthesis. Additionally, some of these proteins are known to play critical role in plants RNA metabolism during stress responses, growth, and development. In this study, transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing a ribosomal protein S27 (hereafter D26) isolated from Solanum tuberosum was subjected to NaCl-induced salinity stress conditions, to evaluate their putative stress resistance. Transgenic plants were exposed to high salinity stress, induced by 200 mM NaCl and physiological and biochemical assays were performed. The D26 transgenic plants demonstrated improved plant height and …
In Vitro Invistigation Of The Heterodimerization Between Angiotensin Ii And Thrombin Receptors, Isra Mansur Al Zamel
In Vitro Invistigation Of The Heterodimerization Between Angiotensin Ii And Thrombin Receptors, Isra Mansur Al Zamel
Biology Theses
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) through its hormone angiotensin (AngII) and the protease thrombin are two major physiological regulators of vascular and renal functions. RAS is involved in the regulation of blood pressure and water-electrolytes hemostasis, while thrombin has a crucial role in platelets activation and thrombosis. The interplay between these two systems at the physiological and the pathophysiological levels has been documented in many studies. However, such an interplay at the pharmacological level between the AngII and thrombin receptors still has not been explored. Our study aimed to explore the interplay between the AngII type 1 receptor (AT1R) and …
Short Tandem Repeats Diversity In Indian And Pakistani Population Living In United Arab Emirates, Ruksar Salim Damji
Short Tandem Repeats Diversity In Indian And Pakistani Population Living In United Arab Emirates, Ruksar Salim Damji
Biology Theses
Short Tandem Repeats (STRs), have become increasingly popular markers of choice due to its wide array of advantages in the sector of forensic investigation. It is necessary to expand genetic research into residing populations i.e., Indian and Pakistani, in the same geographic region such as in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The objectives of this study were to: (1) assess the forensic efficiency parameters and population structure analysis of the autosomal STR loci for the most potent amplification kit (2) estimate the allele frequencies; and (3) determine the significance of increasing the number of STR loci used in forensic DNA …
