| cloning and sequencing of complete tau-crystallin cdna from embryonic lens of crocodylus palustris. | tau-crystallin is a taxon-specific structural protein found in eye lenses. we present here the cloning and sequencing of complete tau-crystallin cdna from the embryonic lens of crocodylus palustris and establish it to be identical to the a-enolase gene from non-lenticular tissues. quantitatively, the tau-crystallin was found to be the least abundant crystallin of the crocodilian embryonic lenses. crocodile tau-crystallin cdna was isolated by rt-pcr using primers designed from the only other repo ... | 2002 | 12089474 |
| individualization and estimation of relatedness in crocodilians by dna fingerprinting with a bkm-derived probe. | individual-specific dna fingerprints of crocodilians were obtained by the use of bkm-2(8) probe. pedigree analyses of crocodylus palustris, c. porosus and caiman crocodilus revealed that the multiple bands (22-23 bands with aludigest) thus obtained were inherited stably in a mendelian fashion. unique fingerprints permitted us to identify individuals, assign parentage, and reconstruct the dna profile of a missing parent. average band sharing between unrelated crocodiles was found to be 0.37. band ... | 1993 | 8479440 |
| hematology and blood biochemistry of captive mugger crocodiles (crocodylus palustris). | comprehensive hematologic and biochemical analyses were conducted on blood from 23 male and 31 female clinically stable captive mugger crocodiles (crocodylus palustris). erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume (mcv), potassium, cholesterol, and calcium concentrations were significantly greater in juvenile males than in juvenile females, but no significant differences were determined between parameters of subadult males and subadult females. the mean wbc count and mean heterophil count were significa ... | 2000 | 11237141 |
