Drive Against Hotspot Motifs in Primates Implicates the Prdm9 Gene in Meiotic Recombination
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Although present in both humans and chimpanzees, recombination hotspots, at which meiotic crossover events cluster, differ markedly in their genomic location between the species. We report that a 13-base pair sequence motif previously associated with the activity of 40% of human hotspots does not function in chimpanzees and is being removed by self

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Gas flow-injection technique pyridine-FTIR was studied for determination of Lewis and Brönsted acid sites on the solid super acid catalysts. The system consists of stainless steel gas cell which can be heated up to 623 K, CaF2 windows, pyridine injection port and double liquid nitrogen trap for removal of moisture. Pure nitrogen gas and pyridine w

Dilated Intercellular Spaces of Esophageal Epithelium Among Malaysian with Nonerosive Reflux Disease: Transmission Electron Microscopic (Tem) Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Dilated intercellular space (DIS) is considered as early signs of acid damage to the esophageal epithelium. The diffusion of refluxed gastric acid into the intercellular space activates chemo sensitive nociceptors whose signals are transmitted via the spinal cord to the brain for symptom (heartburn) perception as well as initiated a short reflex ar
