Tandemly repeated DNA families in the mouse genome
Background Functional and morphological studies of tandem DNA repeats, that combine high portion of most genomes, are mostly limited due to the incomplete characterization of these genome elements.

Correlation between DNase I hypersensitive site distribution and gene expression in HeLa S3 cells. [PDF]
Mapping DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) within nuclear chromatin is a traditional and powerful method of identifying genetic regulatory elements. DHSs have been mapped by capturing the ends of long DNase I-cut fragments (>100,000 bp), or 100-1200 bp ...

Using Nanopore Sequencing to Obtain Complete Bacterial Genomes from Saliva Samples
Obtaining complete, high-quality reference genomes is essential to the study of any organism. Recent advances in nanopore sequencing, as well as genome assembly and analysis methods, have made it possible to obtain complete bacterial genomes from ...

Genomics of an ancient sex chromosome in Tilapia. W633 [PDF]
We have developed important genomic tools and methods of comparative genomics in the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. The physical comparative map generated with BACs allowed us to calculate that there were about one rearrangement of intra ...

Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization on metaphase chromosomes and interphase Halo-preparations using cosmid and YAC clones for the simultaneous high resolution mapping of deletions in the dystrophin gene [PDF]
We report on multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization protocols for the simultaneous visualization of deletion-prone regions for carrier detection of Duchenne/ Becker (DMD/BMD) muscular dystrophy.

Additional haplogroups of Toxoplasma gondii out of Africa: population structure and mouse-virulence of strains from Gabon. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Toxoplasma gondii is found worldwide, but distribution of its genotypes as well as clinical expression of human toxoplasmosis varies across the continents.

Nucleotide Frequencies in Human Genome and Fibonacci Numbers [PDF]
This work presents a mathematical model that establishes an interesting connection between nucleotide frequencies in human single-stranded DNA and the famous Fibonacci's numbers. The model relies on two assumptions.

Genetic Stratigraphy of Key Demographic Events in Arabia [PDF]
The issue of admixture in human populations is normally addressed by genome-wide (GW) studies, and several approaches have been developed to date admixture events [1,2,3,4,5].

An insight into the phylogenetic history of
Background The human chromosomes 2q, 7, 12q and 17q show extensive intra-genomic homology, containing duplicate, triplicate and quadruplicate paralogous regions centered on the HOX gene clusters.
