On the Order of Gene Distribution on Chromosomes Across the Animal Kingdom [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Background. The large-scale pattern of distribution of genes on the chromosomes in the known animal genomes is not well characterized. We hypothesized that individual genes will be distributed on chromosomes in a mathematically ordered manner across the animal kingdom. Results.

Comparative study of adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase domains of MuF polymorphic toxins
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.With the ultimate goal of understanding the association of toxin‐immunity modules to temperate phages, we characterized toxins from three prophages and examined cross‐protection from immunity proteins. The toxins exhibit adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase activity and are toxic in Escherichia coli.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

A survey of chromosome anomalies in Malta [PDF]
, 1989 433 individuals referred for chromosome analysis between 1983 and 1987 were included in the survey. Among individuals with dysmorphic features or congenital anomalies 42% of babies referred in the neonatal period and 12 to 30% of individuals in older age

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

Motorized Chromosome Models of Mitosis [PDF]
arXivDuring mitosis, near-spherical chromosomes reconfigure into rod-like structures to ensure their accurate segregation to daughter cells. We explore here, the interplay between the nonequilibrium activity of molecular motors in determining the chromosomal organization in mitosis and its characteristic symmetry-breaking events.

Can entropy save bacteria? [PDF]
Suckjoon Jun and Andrew Wright, Nature Reviews Microbiology,
August issue (2010), 2008 This article presents a physical biology approach to understanding organization and segregation of bacterial chromosomes. The author uses a "piston" analogy for bacterial chromosomes in a cell, which leads to a phase diagram for the organization of two athermal chains confined in a closed geometry characterized by two length scales (length and width ...

HPDL Variant Type Correlates With Clinical Disease Onset and Severity
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Recently, a mitochondrial encephalopathy due to biallelic HPDL variants was described, associated with a broad range of clinical manifestations ranging from severe, infantile‐onset neurodegeneration to adolescence‐onset hereditary spastic paraplegia. HPDL converts 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvate acid (4‐HPPA) into 4‐hydroxymandelate (4‐HMA),
