WISE J1147−2040 WISEA 1147 is a brown dwarf in the TW Hydrae association, a nearby group of very young stars and brown dwarfs. The object is notable because its estimate mass, 6±1 times the mass of Jupiter, places it in the mass range for rogue planets. Nevertheless, it is a free-floating object, unassociated with any ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=50257654 |
HUMARA assay HUMARA Assay is one of the most widely used methods to determine the clonal origin of a tumor. The method is based on X chromosome inactivation and it takes the advantage of having different methylation status of a gene called HUMARA (short for Human Androgen receptor) that is located on X chromosome. Cons... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=50274456 |
HUMARA assay Thanks to these qualities of HUMARA gene, clonal origin of any tissue from a female mammalian organism can be determined. The basic process is performed as the following : 1-) DNA from the tissue is isolated. 2-) The isolated DNA is treated with the suitable enzyme (such as HpaII) in optimal conditions for... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=50274456 |
HUMARA assay In the case of seeing a band after enzyme treatment, the observation is most likely to mean that the person has two X chromosomes with exact CAG repeats.) When you see two bands for normal tissue (both enzyme treated and untreated), and you see two bands for enzyme treated tumor sample but two bands for un... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=50274456 |
