Genetic Hearing Loss and Gene Therapy [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2018 Genetic hearing loss crosses almost all the categories of hearing loss which includes the following: conductive, sensory, and neural; syndromic and nonsyndromic; congenital, progressive, and adult onset; high-frequency, low-frequency, or mixed frequency; mild or profound; and recessive, dominant, or sex-linked.

Dynamic Evolution of Avian RNA Virus Sensors: Repeated Loss of RIG-I and RIPLET
Viruses, 2022 Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) are key RNA virus sensors belonging to the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) family.

Loss of dispensable genes is not adaptive in yeast [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 A substantial share of genes identified in yeast can be deleted without visible phenotypic effects. Current debate concentrates on the possible roles of seemingly dispensable genes. The costs of maintaining unnecessary functions has attracted little attention. The hypothesis of antagonistic pleiotropy postulates that adaptations to

The Expansion of Animal MicroRNA Families Revisited
Life, 2015 MicroRNAs are important regulatory small RNAs in many eukaryotes. Due to their small size and simple structure, they are readily innovated de novo. Throughout the evolution of animals, the emergence of novel microRNA families traces key morphological ...

Plastome phylogeny and lineage diversification of Salicaceae with focus on poplars and willows
Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Phylogenetic relationships and lineage diversification of the family Salicaceae sensu lato (s.l.) remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined phylogenetic relationships between 42 species from six genera based on the complete plastomes ...

The complete chloroplast genome of a hemiparasitic plant Tolypanthus maclurei (Loranthaceae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 Parasitic plants often show changes in chloroplast genome size and gene content. Here we obtained the complete chloroplast genome of Tolypanthus maclurei, a hemiparasitic shrub of Loranthaceae, using genome skimming method. It is 123,581 bp in length and
