On a break with the X: the role of repair of double-stranded DNA breaks in X-linked disease [PDF]
The problem of managing free reactive DNA ends in eukaryotic cells has resulted in the development of a number of mechanisms in order to ensure that free ends are rendered non-reactive, or that the double-strand DNA breaks generating the free ends are ...

Sequencing and characterisation of rearrangements in three S. pastorianus strains reveals the presence of chimeric genes and gives evidence of breakpoint reuse [PDF]
Gross chromosomal rearrangements have the potential to be evolutionarily advantageous to an adapting organism. The generation of a hybrid species increases opportunity for recombination by bringing together two homologous genomes. We sought to define the location of genomic rearrangements in three strains of Saccharomyces pastorianus, a natural lager ...

Statistical inference of the generation probability of T-cell receptors from sequence repertoires [PDF]
Stochastic rearrangement of germline DNA by VDJ recombination is at the origin of immune system diversity. This process is implemented via a series of stochastic molecular events involving gene choices and random nucleotide insertions between, and deletions from, genes.

BackgroundMitochondrial genomic (mitogenomic) reorganizations are rarely found in closely-related animals, yet drastic reorganizations have been found in the Ranoides frogs.

Animal mitochondrial genomes usually exhibit conserved gene arrangement across major lineages, while those in the Hymenoptera are known to possess frequent rearrangements, as are those of several other orders of insects.

BACKGROUND A subgroup of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged lung tumours can respond to ALK inhibitors. Until now, the ALK status in circulating tumour cells (CTCs) isolated from patients with lung cancer has not been characterised.

Immunohistochemical and Molecular Characterization of Endometrial Stromal Sarcomas
Introduction: Endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESSs) are rare and characterized by translocations t(7;17)(p15;q11.2) and t(10;17)(q22;p13), resulting in JAZF1-SUZ12 and YWHAE-FAM22 gene fusions used for defining low-grade (LG-ESS) and high-grade (HG-ESS ...

The mitogenome of the scale insect Didesmococcus koreanus Borchsenius, 1955 (Coccoidea: Coccidae)
The complete mitochondrial genome of Didesmococcus koreanus is described in this study. The complete mitogenome is a 15,162 bp circular DNA molecule with a high A + T content of 82.5%, containing the typical 37 genes.

A novel element upstream of the Vgamma2 gene in the murine T cell receptor gamma locus cooperates with the 3 enhancer to act as a locus control region. [PDF]
Transgenic expression constructs were employed to identify a cis-acting transcription element in the T cell receptor (TCR)-gamma locus, called HsA, between the Vgamma5 and Vgamma2 genes. In constructs lacking the previously defined enhancer (3E(Cgamma1)),
