An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Use of Principal Component and Factor Analysis to reduce the number of independent variables in the prediction of Genomic Breeding Values

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
On a simulated population of 2,500 individuals, Principal Component Analysis and Factor Analysis were used to reduce the number of independent variables for the prediction of GEBVs.

Quantitative Analysis of Genome-Wide Chromatin Remodeling [PDF]

, 2011
Recent high-throughput sequencing technologies have opened the door for genome-wide characterization of chromatin features at an unprecedented resolution. Chromatin accessibility is an important property that regulates protein binding and other nuclear processes.

Genome-wide probabilistic reconciliation analysis across vertebrates [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2013
Gene duplication is considered to be a major driving force in evolution that enables the genome of a species to acquire new functions. A reconciliation--a mapping of gene tree vertices to the edges or vertices of a species tree--explains where gene duplications have occurred on the species tree. In this study, we sample reconciliations from a posterior

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Analysis of Heritability Using Genome‐Wide Data [PDF]

Current Protocols in Human Genetics, 2016
AbstractMost analyses of genome‐wide association data consider each variant independently without considering or adjusting for the genetic background present in the rest of the genome. New approaches to genome analysis use representations of genomic sharing to better account for confounding factors like population stratification or to directly ...

PICALM::MLLT10 translocated leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This comprehensive review of PICALM::MLLT10 translocated acute leukemia provides an in‐depth review of the structure and function of CALM, AF10, and the fusion oncoprotein (1). The multifaceted molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis, including nucleocytoplasmic shuttling (2), epigenetic modifications (3), and disruption of endocytosis (4), are then ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Genome-wide Analysis of Seasonal Reproduction in Birds

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2009
Many seasonal breeding animals can estimate the day length (photoperiod) and prepare for breeding in the optimal season. The Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) is an excellent model for studying photoperiodism because of its rapid and dramatic response ...
