Extrachromosomal Circular DNA as a Cancer Biomarker: From Diagnosis to Treatment. [PDF]
Cancer InnovExtrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is an emerging class of genetic material that exists outside the chromosomal genome. These circular DNA molecules are gaining increasing attention as important biomarkers in cancer research due to their roles in gene amplification, genetic heterogeneity, and drug resistance.

EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF A PATERNALLY INHERITED EXTRACHROMOSOMAL FACTOR [PDF]
Genetics, 1986 ABSTRACT Virtually all known cases of extrachromosomal inheritance involve cytoplasmic inheritance through the maternal line. Recently, a paternally transmitted factor that causes the production of all-male families has been discovered in a parasitic wasp.

Inheritance of extrachromosomal rDNA in Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1983 In the acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum, the several hundred genes coding for rRNA are located on linear extrachromosomal DNA molecules of a discrete size, 60 kilobases. Each molecule contains two genes that are arranged in a palindromic fashion and separated by a central spacer region. We investigated how rDNA is inherited after meiosis. Two

Sperm-Mediated Transgenerational Inheritance
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Spermatozoa of virtually all species can spontaneously take up exogenous DNA or RNA molecules and internalize them into nuclei. In this article I review evidence for a key role of a reverse transcriptase (RT) activity, encoded by LINE-1 retrotransposons,
