Interactions between BRCA2 and RAD51 for promoting homologous recombination in Leishmania infantum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In most organisms, the primary function of homologous recombination (HR) is to allow genome protection by the faithful repair of DNA double-strand breaks.

Reduced meiotic recombination in rhesus macaques and the origin of the human recombination landscape.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Characterizing meiotic recombination rates across the genomes of nonhuman primates is important for understanding the genetics of primate populations, performing genetic analyses of phenotypic variation and reconstructing the evolution of human ...

Competition between recombination and epistasis can cause a transition from allele to genotype selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Biochemical and regulatory interactions central to biological networks are expected to cause extensive genetic interactions or epistasis affecting the heritability of complex traits and the distribution of genotypes in populations. However, the inference

Genetic Recombination between Human and Animal Parasites Creates Novel Strains of Human Pathogen

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015
Genetic recombination between pathogens derived from humans and livestock has the potential to create novel pathogen strains, highlighted by the influenza pandemic H1N1/09, which was derived from a re-assortment of swine, avian and human influenza A ...

An Eco-Evolutionary approach of Adaptation and Recombination in a large population of varying size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We identify the genetic signature of a selective sweep in a population described by a birth-and-death process with density dependent competition. We study the limit behaviour for large K, where K scales the population size.

Comparative genomic analysis reveals occurrence of genetic recombination in virulent Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes and telomeric gene duplications in Cryptosporidium parvum

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2015
BackgroundCryptosporidium hominis is a dominant species for human cryptosporidiosis. Within the species, IbA10G2 is the most virulent subtype responsible for all C.

Pan-cancer landscape of homologous recombination deficiency

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) results in impaired double strand break repair and is a frequent driver of tumorigenesis. Here, we develop a genome-wide mutational scar-based pan-cancer Classifier of HOmologous Recombination Deficiency (CHORD ...

Random-sequence genetic oligomer pools display an innate potential for ligation and recombination

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Recombination, the exchange of information between different genetic polymer strands, is of fundamental importance in biology for genome maintenance and genetic diversification and is mediated by dedicated recombinase enzymes. Here, we describe an innate

Conserved Genetic Architecture Underlying Individual Recombination Rate Variation in a Wild Population of Soay Sheep (Ovis aries)

open access: yesGenetics, 2016
Meiotic recombination breaks down linkage disequilibrium (LD) and forms new haplotypes, meaning that it is an important driver of diversity in eukaryotic genomes.

Identification and manipulation of the molecular determinants influencing poliovirus recombination.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
The control and prevention of communicable disease is directly impacted by the genetic mutability of the underlying etiological agents. In the case of RNA viruses, genetic recombination may impact public health by facilitating the generation of new viral
