Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), is characterized by low sequence diversity making this bacterium one of the classical examples of a genetically monomorphic pathogen.
That is why alternative etiologies can complement, rather than compete with, each other, as in Meehl's (1977) example of an elderly man, genetically somewhat at risk for depression, who develops it after his spouse dies.
For example, a genetically engineered mouse model of pancreatic cancer with targeted expression of mutant KRAS G12D and Trp53 R172H genes has been shown to recapitulate human pancreatic neoplasia, from premalignant lesions to invasive cancer and metastasis [ 7].
This study provides the first example of genetically manipulating an endogenous chloroplast protein to increase recombinant protein accumulation in algae.
This study provides the first example of genetically manipulating an algal photosynthetic protein to increase recombinant protein accumulation.
A migraine attack may be interpreted as an example of genetically determined adaptive behavioral response to internal or external stressors that it is orchestrated by a threatened brain [42].
"The convincing needs to be done at the national level," Tindemans says, alluding to the example of developing genetically modified crops, which Glover explicitly supports, despite opposition from several European governments.
The Tomb of the Shroud is one of very few examples of a preserved shrouded human burial and the only example of a plaster sealed loculus with remains genetically confirmed to have belonged to a shrouded male individual that suffered from tuberculosis and leprosy dating to the first-century C.E.
MVA85A, an example of a subunit vaccine, currently in trials in South Africa, is based on a genetically modified vaccinia virus.
