Evolution of TOP1 and TOP1MT Topoisomerases in Chordata
AbstractType IB topoisomerases relax the torsional stress associated with DNA metabolism in the nucleus and mitochondria and constitute important molecular targets of anticancer drugs. Vertebrates stand out among eukaryotes by having two Type IB topoisomerases acting specifically in the nucleus (TOP1) and mitochondria (TOP1MT).

On the origins of Mendelian disease genes in man: the impact of gene duplication [PDF]
Over 3,000 human diseases are known to be linked to heritable genetic variation, mapping to over 1,700 unique genes. Dating of the evolutionary age of these disease-associated genes has suggested that they have a tendency to be ancient, specifically ...

What goes in, must come out:combining scat-based molecular diet analysis and quantification of ingested microplastics in a marine top predator [PDF]
Context: Microplastics (plastic particles <5 mm in size) are highly available for ingestion by a wide range of organisms, either through direct consumption or indirectly, via trophic transfer, from prey to predator.
