Shared ancestral polymorphisms and chromosomal rearrangements as potential drivers of local adaptation in a marine fish

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2020
Gene flow has tremendous importance for local adaptation, by influencing the fate of de novo mutations, maintaining standing genetic variation and driving adaptive introgression.

A pipeline for complete characterization of complex germline rearrangements from long DNA reads

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2020
Background Many genetic/genomic disorders are caused by genomic rearrangements. Standard methods can often characterize these variations only partly, e.g., copy number changes or breakpoints.

Insights into the origin of the high variability of multivalent-meiotic associations in holocentric chromosomes of Tityus (Archaeotityus) scorpions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Scorpions represent an intriguing group of animals characterized by a high incidence of heterozygous chromosomal rearrangements. In this work, we examined six species of Tityus (Archaeotityus) from Brazilian fauna with a particular focus on elucidating ...

Consequence of Paradigm Shift with Repeat Landscapes in Reptiles: Powerful Facilitators of Chromosomal Rearrangements for Diversity and Evolution (Running Title: Genomic Impact of Repeats on Chromosomal Dynamics in Reptiles)

open access: yesGenes, 2020
Reptiles are notable for the extensive genomic diversity and species richness among amniote classes, but there is nevertheless a need for detailed genome-scale studies. Although the monophyletic amniotes have recently been a focus of attention through an

Chromosomal instability in Streptomyces avermitilis: major deletion in the central region and stable circularized chromosome

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2010
Background The chromosome of Streptomyces has been shown to be unstable, frequently undergoing gross chromosomal rearrangements. However, the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain unclear, with previous studies focused on two chromosomal ends as ...

Chromosomal rearrangements and their neoantigenic potential in mesothelioma

open access: yesTranslational Lung Cancer Research, 2020
Chromosomal rearrangements are a defining molecular feature of mesothelioma that are not readily detected by standard DNA sequencing approaches but could be detected by whole genome sequencing methods such as mate-pair sequencing.

Micronuclei-based model system reveals functional consequences of chromothripsis in human cells

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Cancer cells often harbor chromosomes in abnormal numbers and with aberrant structure. The consequences of these chromosomal aberrations are difficult to study in cancer, and therefore several model systems have been developed in recent years.

Engineering chromosome rearrangements in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
ABSTRACT The identification of large chromosomal rearrangements in cancers has multiplied exponentially over the last decade. These complex and often rare genomic events have traditionally been challenging to study, in part owing to lack of tools that efficiently engineer disease-associated inversions, deletions and translocations in ...

Assessment of Molecular Cytogenetic Methods for the Detection of Chromosomal Abnormalities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Some marker chromosomes and chromosome rearrangements are difficult to identify using G-bands by Giemsa staining after trypsin treatment (G-banding) alone.

Chromosomal rearrangements formed by rrn recombination do not improve replichore balance in host-specific Salmonella enterica serovars. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Most of the ∼2,600 serovars of Salmonella enterica have a broad host range as well as a conserved gene order. In contrast, some Salmonella serovars are host-specific and frequently exhibit large chromosomal rearrangements from recombination between rrn ...
