Relevant for various areas of human genetics, Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (Y-STRs) are commonly used testing close paternal relationships among individuals and populations, male lineage identification. However, even the widely 17-loci Yfiler set cannot resolve populations completely. Here, 52 centers generated quality-controlled data 13 rapidly mutating (RM) Y-STRs in 14,644 related unrelated males from 111 worldwide populations. Strikingly, >99% 12,272 were completely individualized....
There are many different studies that contribute to the global picture of ethnic heterogeneity in Brazilian populations. These use types genetic markers and focused on comparison populations at levels. In some them, each geographical region is treated as a single homogeneous population, whereas other create subdivisions: political (e.g., pooling by State), demographic urban rural), or culture, self-declaration, skin colour). this study, we performed an enhanced reassessment ancestry ~ 1,300...
Numerous studies of human populations in Europe and Asia have revealed a concordance between their extant genetic structure the prevailing regional pattern geography language. For native South Americans, however, such evidence has been lacking so far. Therefore, we examined relationship Y-chromosomal genotype on one hand, male geographic origin linguistic affiliation other, largest study American natives to date terms sampled individuals populations. A total 1,011 individuals, representing...
The ancestry of the Colombian population comprises a large number well differentiated Native communities belonging to diverse linguistic groups. In late fifteenth century, process admixture was initiated with arrival Europeans, and several years later, Africans also became part population. Therefore, genepool current results from Americans, Europeans Africans. This occurred differently in each region country, producing clearly stratified Considering importance substructure both clinical...
A collaborative work was carried out by the Spanish and Portuguese ISFG Working Group (GEP-ISFG) to estimate Y-STR mutation rates. Seventeen Y chromosome STR loci (DYS19, DYS385, DYS389I II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, DYS460, DYS461, DYS635 [GATA C4], GATA H4, A10) were analyzed in a sample of 3,026 father/son pairs. Among 27,029 allele transfers, 54 mutations observed, with an overall rate across 17 1.998 × 10–3 (95% CI, 1.501 2.606 10–3). With just one...
The Brazilian population is highly heterogeneous as a result of five centuries inter-ethnic mating between native Amerindians, European colonizers and Africans arrived during slavery. This study aimed to assess the proportions admixture in Rio de Janeiro using autosomal Ancestry-Informative Markers (AIMs). data were also compared results expected from uniparental genetic markers. A total 413 individuals genotyped for 46 AIM-Indels ancestry estimates then assessed HGDP-CEPH samples ancestral...
Here we present a mitogenomic perspective on the evolution of sharks and rays, being first glance complete mitochondrial history such an old diversified group vertebrates. The Elasmobranchii is diverse subclass Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fish, with about 1200 species ocean- freshwater-dwelling fishes spread all over world's seas, including some ocean's largest fishes. dates back 400 million years near Devonian–Silurian boundary, nowadays represented by several derivative lineages,...
Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease, caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which affects skin and peripheral nerves. Polymorphisms in genes associated with autophagy, metabolism, innate adaptive immunity confer susceptibility to leprosy. However, these associations need be confirmed through independent replication studies different ethnicities. The population from Amazon state (northern Brazil) admixed it contains the highest proportion of Native American genetic ancestry Brazil. We conducted...
The Tetraodontidae are an Acantomorpha fish family with circumglobal distribution composed of 189 species grouped in 19 genera, occurring seas, estuaries, and rivers between the tropical temperate regions. Of these, genus Colomesus is confined to South America, what have been up now considered only two species. C. asellus spread over entire Amazon, Tocantins-Araguaia drainages, coastal environments from Amazon mouth Venezuela, freshwater puffers on that continent. psittacus found marine...
Brazil is the world leader in pesticide consumption, and its indiscriminate use puts farmers' health at risk. The CYP2C9 gene encodes enzyme, which metabolizes several endogenous substrates specific xenobiotics, especially pesticides. Our goal to study risk of use, herbicide glyphosate, development diseases association with two polymorphisms, farmers living southern region Espírito Santo state, Brazil. allelic frequency CYP2C9*1, CYP2C9*2 CYP2C9*3 was determined blood samples from...
Introdução: A mucormicose, infecção fúngica rara e agressiva, apresenta um desafio clínico significativo, necessitando de diagnóstico precoce tratamento eficaz. importância uma abordagem integrada da reabilitação orofacial, enfatizando a correlação harmoniosa entre oselementos dentários as estruturas faciais, cruciais para estética função oral. Relato do caso: Paciente com mucormicose (zigomicose) que, após maxilectomia, sofreu comunicação oronasal, destacando-se o uso prótese maxilofacial...
