Capture of flanking DNA by a P element in Drosophila melanogaster: creation of a transposable element. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991
A 6.1-kilobase insertion into the rudimentary (r) gene was cloned and partially sequenced. The insertion consists of a 703-base-pair (bp) P element next to a 5.4-kilobase single-copy sequence. The normal position of the single-copy sequence is near the tip of the X chromosome.

Transposon insertion profiling by sequencing (TIPseq) for mapping LINE-1 insertions in the human genome

Mobile DNA, 2019
Background Transposable elements make up a significant portion of the human genome. Accurately locating these mobile DNAs is vital to understand their role as a source of structural variation and somatic mutation. To this end, laboratories have developed

A theoretical model of soma-to-germline transmission of transposable elements to build new gene regulatory sequences [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Transposable elements are DNA sequences that can move around to different positions in the genome. During this process, they can cause mutations, and lead to an increase in genome size. Despite representing a large genomic fraction, transposable elements have no clear biological function. This work builds upon a previous model, to propose a new concept

The genomic ecosystem of transposable elements in maize

bioRxiv, 2019
Transposable elements (TEs) constitute the majority of flowering plant DNA, reflecting their tremendous success in subverting, avoiding, and surviving the defenses of their host genomes to ensure their selfish replication.

Artesunate Inhibits Neointimal Hyperplasia by Promoting IRF4 Associated Macrophage Polarization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that macrophage interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) improved arterial injury‐induced neointimal hyperplasia by promoting of M2 polarization via up‐regulating krüppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4) in rodent and nonhuman primate models. Notably, artesunate is identified as a potent inducer of IRF4 in macrophages, and proposed as a promising ...

Advances in exosome biomarkers for cervical cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 4966-4978, December 2022., 2022
Cancer‐derived exosomes may promote CC metastasis by boosting cellular epithelial‐mesenchymal transformation (EMT), controlling the proliferation, invasion, or migration of cancer cells, as well as influencing immune escape and aiding angiogenesis.

Integrating Dense Genotyping with High‐Throughput Phenotyping Empowers the Genetic Dissection of Berry Quality and Resilience Traits in Grapevine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers develop advanced tools to study grapevine traits like berry quality and stress resilience. A 200K SNP array and high‐throughput phenotyping enable the identification of loci linked to berry shape, sugar content, acidity, and cold tolerance. Functional validation of genes such as NAC08 reveals roles in cold tolerance.
