Chromosome Number Variation in Iranian Populations of Acorus calamus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Resources, 2019
Different ploidy levels, diploid (2n=2x=24) to hexaploid (2n=6x=72) have been reported for Acorus calamus, a perennial medicinal plant. According to available information, there is a significant relationship between the ploidy level and essential oil ...

Thermodynamic pathways to genome spatial organization in the cell nucleus [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys.Jou. 96, 2168 (2009), 2009
The architecture of the eukaryotic genome is characterized by a high degree of spatial organization. Chromosomes occupy preferred territories correlated to their state of activity and, yet, displace their genes to interact with remote sites in complex patterns requiring the orchestration of a huge number of DNA loci and molecular regulators.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Morfo-anatomia de plântulas e número cromossômico de Cybistax antisyphilitica (Mart.) Mart. (Bignoniaceae) Seedling morpho-anatomy and chromosome number of Cybistax antisyphilitica (Mart.) Mart. (Bignoniaceae)

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2008
Plântulas de Cybistax antisyphilitica (ipê-verde), espécie arbórea que ocorre no Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, foram estudadas morfoanatomicamente e citogeneticamente. As plântulas são eudicotiledôneas, fanerocotiledonares e epigéias.

Colocalization of coregulated genes: a steered molecular dynamics study of human chromosome 19 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The connection between chromatin nuclear organization and gene activity is vividly illustrated by the observation that transcriptional coregulation of certain genes appears to be directly influenced by their spatial proximity. This fact poses the more general question of whether it is at all feasible that the numerous genes that are coregulated on a ...

Unconventional mRNA processing and degradation pathways for the polycistronic yrzI (spyTA) mRNA in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The S1025 peptide is the major antidote to the YrzI toxin, which we renamed here as SpyT (Small Peptide YrzI Toxin) and SpyA (Small Peptide YrzI Antitoxin) (1). Degradation of the toxin–antitoxin spyTA mRNA, either by a translation‐dependent cleavage by the endoribonuclease Rae1 (2) or by direct attack by 3′‐exoribonucleases (3), also contributes to ...

Cytogenetic differences between Peritelus familiaris and Centricnemus leucogrammus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae: Peritelini)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
Differences in the karyology of two species, Centricnemus leucogrammus and Peritelus familiaris (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), were investigated in order to elucidate their taxonomic position of the taxa.

Hidden Markov models for the assessment of chromosomal alterations using high-throughput SNP arrays [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2008, Vol. 2, No. 2, 687-713, 2008
Chromosomal DNA is characterized by variation between individuals at the level of entire chromosomes (e.g., aneuploidy in which the chromosome copy number is altered), segmental changes (including insertions, deletions, inversions, and translocations), and changes to small genomic regions (including single nucleotide polymorphisms).

Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and
