Drosophila suzukii (Ds) is an invasive pest insect that infests ripening fruit, causing severe economic losses. Control measures based on chemical pesticides are inefficient and undesirable, so biological alternatives have been considered, including ...

Formerly hailed as “undruggable” proteins, transcription factors (TFs) are now under investigation for targeted therapy. In cancer, this may alter, inter alia, immune evasion or replicative immortality, which are implicated in genome organization, a ...

Evolution and Genetic Diversity of Primate Cytomegaloviruses
Cytomegaloviruses (CMVs) infect many mammals, including humans and non–human primates (NHPs). Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is an important opportunistic pathogen among immunocompromised patients and represents the most common infectious cause of birth ...

Entropy-Driven Genome Organization [PDF]
DNA and RNA polymerases active on bacterial and human genomes in the crowded environment of a cell are modeled as beads spaced along a string. Aggregation of the large polymerizing complexes increases the entropy of the system through an increase in entropy of the many small crowding molecules; this occurs despite the entropic costs of looping the ...

Draft genome sequence of the Daphnia pathogen Octosporea bayeri: insights into the gene content of a large microsporidian genome and a model for host-parasite interactions [PDF]
Background: The highly compacted 2.9-Mb genome of Encephalitozoon cuniculi placed the microsporidia in the spotlight, encoding a mere 2,000 proteins and a highly reduced suite of biochemical pathways.

Radial Organization in the Mammalian Nucleus
In eukaryotic cells, most of the genetic material is contained within a highly specialized organelle—the nucleus. A large body of evidence indicates that, within the nucleus, chromatinized DNA is spatially organized at multiple length scales.
