Objective: To identify and clone the gene encoding human M96 gene and study its expression spectrum in several blood cell lines.
Methods: According to the sequence of human EST which was highly homologous to the mouse M96 gene, primers used for library screening were synthesized, then the human adult testis and fetal brain cDNA library were screened. The gene was analyzed by making use of BLAST and CLUSTAL W, and its expression spectrum was studied by multiple-cell lines Northern blot analysis. The expression change of M961 in cell differentiation was observed by use of K562 cell line induced by hemin.
Results: Two cDNA clones encoding human M96 gene were isolated, identified and named as M961, and M962. They were found to be isoforms of each other. Northern, blot showed that M961 gene was expressed highly in CEM, Hel, Dami and K562 cell lines. However, during K562 cell line differentiation, process the expression of M961 elevated only slightly.
Conclusions: M961 gene was expressed highly in pluripotent cell lines with erythrocytic and megakaryocytic potentials.

Development of cultivars with multiple resistances has proven to be an effective way to prevent diseases in wheat breeding. The Guixie 3 variety (GX3) has shown excellent performance in resistance to stripe rust in field for many years. The purpose of this study was to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with resistance to stripe rust in the adult plant stage and determine closely linked molecular markers.

Orthopoxviruses (OPVs) have broad host range infecting a variety of species along with gene-specific determinants. Several genes including haemagglutinin (HA) are used for differentiation of OPVs. Among poxviruses, OPVs are sole members encoding HA protein as part of extracellular enveloped virion membrane.

Camelpox is an important viral disease of camels, which may produce mild skin lesions or severe systemic infections. Camelpox virus (CMLV) isolates retrieved from an incidence of camelpox in camels at Bikaner, India were characterized on the basis of genotype and pathotype. Histopathological examination of the CMLV scab revealed intracytoplasmic-eosinophilic inclusion bodies.

Objective: We analyzed the Y-chromosome haplogroup diversity in the Kuwaiti population to gain a more complete overview of its genetic landscape.
Method: A sample of 117 males from the Kuwaiti population was studied through the analysis of 22 Y-SNPs. The results were then interpreted in conjunction with those of other populations from the Middle East, South Asia, North and East Africa, and East Europe.

Camelpox virus (genus Orthopoxvirus, family Poxviridae) is the etiologic agent of camel pox. The clinical manifestations of this virus range from inapparent infection to mild, moderate and, less commonly, severe systemic infection and death. Following an outbreak of camelpox, samples that were collected from camel flocks suspected to have camelpox in Qom Province in central Iran and Khash city, Sistan and Baluchestan Province and South Khorasan Province in eastern Iran were sent to Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute in Mashhad.
