The Pontastacus leptodactylus (Astacidae) Repeatome Provides Insight Into Genome Evolution and Reveals Remarkable Diversity of Satellite DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Pontastacus leptodactylus is a native European crayfish species found in both freshwater and brackish environments. It has commercial importance for fisheries and aquaculture industries. Up till now, most studies concerning P.

Influence of DNA methylation on positioning and DNA flexibility of nucleosomes with pericentric satellite DNA [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2015
DNA methylation occurs on CpG sites and is important to form pericentric heterochromatin domains. The satellite 2 sequence, containing seven CpG sites, is located in the pericentric region of human chromosome 1 and is highly methylated in normal cells ...

Conformations of satellite DNAs

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1976
X-ray fiber diffraction studies of satellite DNAs from Gecarcinus lateralis, Drosophila virilis and Mus musculus, all of which have highly repetitious base sequences but with different degrees of sequence complexity, reveal only classical polynucleotide duplex structures in contrast to some highly repetitious synthetic DNAs.

A conserved function for pericentromeric satellite DNA

open access: yeseLife, 2018
A universal and unquestioned characteristic of eukaryotic cells is that the genome is divided into multiple chromosomes and encapsulated in a single nucleus. However, the underlying mechanism to ensure such a configuration is unknown.

A recombinant DNA‐satellite associated with Pepper yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus in highland area

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Biotechnology, 2021
Yellow curl disease caused by begomovirus is a major threat for horticulture in Indonesia. Control mea‐ sures for the disease face several constraints, one of which is the association between begomovirus and DNA satellites which can affect the severity ...

More efficient repair of DNA double-strand breaks in skeletal muscle stem cells compared to their committed progeny

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2014
The loss of genome integrity in adult stem cells results in accelerated tissue aging and is possibly cancerogenic. Adult stem cells in different tissues appear to react robustly to DNA damage.

Molecular characterization of SSS139, a new satellite DNA family in sibling species of the Drosophila buzzatii cluster

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2008
We characterized sequences of a novel SSS139 RsaI satellite DNA family in Drosophila gouveai and Drosophila seriema, two members of the Drosophila buzzatii cluster (D. repleta group).

Regenerative capacity of old muscle stem cells declines without significant accumulation of DNA damage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The performance of adult stem cells is crucial for tissue homeostasis but their regenerative capacity declines with age, leading to failure of multiple organs.

Evolutionary Dynamics of Satellite DNA Repeats across the Tettigoniidae Family: Insights from Genomic Analysis

open access: yesBiomolecules
Satellite DNA repeats are repetitive DNA sequences found in eukaryotic genomes, typically consisting of short DNA motifs repeated in tandem arrays. Despite the vast body of literature on satellite DNA repeats in other taxa, investigations specifically ...

Comparative repeatome analysis on Triatoma infestans Andean and Non-Andean lineages, main vector of Chagas disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Triatoma infestans is the most important Chagas disease vector in South America. Two main evolutionary lineages, named Andean and non-Andean, have been recognized by geographical distribution, phenetic and genetic characteristics.
