EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF A PATERNALLY INHERITED EXTRACHROMOSOMAL FACTOR [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 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.

Glioma through the looking GLASS: molecular evolution of diffuse gliomas and the Glioma Longitudinal Analysis Consortium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Adult diffuse gliomas are a diverse group of brain neoplasms that inflict a high emotional toll on patients and their families. The Cancer Genome Atlas and similar projects have provided a comprehensive understanding of the somatic alterations and ...

Sperm-Mediated Transgenerational Inheritance

open access: yesFrontiers 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,

Antiviral RNA Interference against Orsay Virus Is neither Systemic nor Transgenerational in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
UNLABELLED: Antiviral RNA-mediated silencing (RNA interference [RNAi]) acts as a powerful innate immunity defense in plants, invertebrates, and mammals. In Caenorhabditis elegans, RNAi is systemic; i.e., RNAi silencing signals can move between cells and ...

Satellite DNA libraries and centromere evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Related species share a pool of satellite DNA sequences known as a satellite DNA library. Such sequences may persist in the genome for long evolutionary time at latent locations and can be amplified in any species.

Yersinia pestis pathogenicity

open access: yesЖурнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2019
Yersinia pestis belongs to those pathogenic bacteria which produce lipopolysaccharide (LPS) having the function of a toxin. In order to make a toxic effect the polymer must be separated from the cell outer membrane and presented to the immunocompetent ...

The sperm factor: paternal impact beyond genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The fact that sperm carry more than the paternal DNA has only been discovered just over a decade ago. With this discovery, the idea that the paternal condition may have direct implications for the fitness of the offspring had to be revisited.

De novo mutations in SMCHD1 cause Bosma arhinia microphthalmia syndrome and abrogate nasal development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bosma arhinia microphthalmia syndrome (BAMS) is an extremely rare and striking condition characterized by complete absence of the nose with or without ocular defects.

Analytical model for macromolecular partitioning during yeast cell division [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Asymmetric cell division, whereby a parent cell generates two sibling cells with unequal content and thereby distinct fates, is central to cell differentiation, organism development and ageing.

DNA DSB repair pathway choice: an orchestrated handover mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) are potential lethal lesions but can also lead to chromosome rearrangements, a step promoting carcinogenesis. DNA non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) is the major DSB rejoining process and occurs in all cell cycle stages ...
