We identified a novel mutation of β-thalassemia (β-thal) in a heterozygous carrier from Azerbaijan. Phenotypical data and molecular mechanisms of codon 2 (-T) (: c.9delT) was relevant to β-thal. Additionally, we here report two new mutations on the gene, not observed previously, in the local population as well as a non causative promoter mutation -198 (A>G) (: c.-248A>G).

A consistent area of interest since the beginning of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has been the sequence composition of the virus and how it has changed over time. Many resources have been developed for the storage and analysis of SARS-CoV-2 data, such as GISAID (Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data), NCBI, Nextstrain, and outbreak.info.

Case Presentation: A girl aged 2 years and 5 months presented to the hospital with chief complaints of intermittent fever and weakness of the left limb for more than 1 month. The child had transient urticaria appearing on her face for 5 days. The inflammatory biomarkers were significantly increased.

Calligonum polygonoides, an endangered species of desert due to poor regeneration and overexploitation, which requires immediate conservation attention. Genetic diversity analysis is crucial for effective conservation and management initiatives, for elite genotypes. Therefore, in the present study, SCoT (start codon target) and ISSR (inter simple sequence repeat) markers were used to investigate the genetic variability in 120 individuals of Calligonum polygonoides.

Crown rot caused by Fusarium proliferatum is a severe postharvest disease of banana fruit. The N-methyladenosine (mA) modification is the most common type of RNA modification and regulates gene expression in eukaryotes. Here, we analyzed transcriptome-wide changes in mA methylation to investigate post-transcriptional regulation mechanisms of growth and fumonisin biosynthesis of F.

Background: SYNGAP1 encodes a Ras/Rap GTPase-activating protein that is predominantly expressed in the brain with the functional roles in regulating synaptic plasticity, spine morphogenesis, and cognition function. Pathogenic variants in SYNGAP1 have been associated with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, epilepsy, hypotonia, and the features of autism spectrum disorder. The aim of this study was to identify a novel SYNGAP1 gene variant linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and to evaluate the pathogenicity of the detected variant.
