AIM: To investigate the presence of @entity12553 oxidase ( @entity16911 ) @entity68274 polymorphism in group 1 { @entity2345 ( @entity2345 ) @entity1 }, group 2 (betel quid chewers without @entity2345 ) and group 3 (healthy individuals). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 60 @entity1 were taken for the study, which included 20 @entity2345 @entity1 (group 1), 20 betel quid chewers without @entity2345 (group 2) and 20 healthy individuals without @entity2345 and betel quid chewing habit (group 3). DNA was isolated using Qiagen kit. The isolated DNA was quantified using spectroscopic methods. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out at annealing temperature of 67(o) C. PCR amplification was checked on 2% agarose gel. Further, the amplified PCR products were subjected to automated DNA sequencer, to assess @entity16911 @entity68274 polymorphism. RESULTS: The gene sequence data generated from the automated DNA sequencer was received as colored electropherograms. These gene-sequencing results did not show @entity16911 @entity68274 polymorphism in any of the 3 groups. CONCLUSION: In our study, gene-sequencing results did not show @entity16911 @entity68274 polymorphism in @entity2345 @entity1 . Since only one study in the literature has shown the association of @entity16911 gene polymorphism and @entity2345 @entity1 , we conclude that further studies are required to unveil the role of @entity16911 gene polymorphism in @entity2345 .
