Genome Organization: Cohesin on the Move [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2017
Folding of mammalian genomes into spatial domains is thought to depend on cohesin and CTCF proteins. Busslinger et al. (2017) reveal that transcription moves cohesin along DNA to CTCF-binding sites, providing insights into how cohesin and CTCF mediate chromosomal interactions by formation of chromatin loops.

Specificity, propagation, and memory of pericentric heterochromatin

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2014
The cell establishes heritable patterns of active and silenced chromatin via interacting factors that set, remove, and read epigenetic marks. To understand how the underlying networks operate, we have dissected transcriptional silencing in pericentric ...

Transcriptionally Driven DNA Replication Program of the Human Parasite Leishmania major

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Faithful inheritance of eukaryotic genomes requires the orchestrated activation of multiple DNA replication origins (ORIs). Although origin firing is mechanistically conserved, how origins are specified and selected for activation varies across different

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]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Nanopore direct RNA sequencing maps the complexity of Arabidopsis mRNA processing and m6A modification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Understanding genome organization and gene regulation requires insight into RNA transcription, processing and modification. We adapted nanopore direct RNA sequencing to examine RNA from a wild-type accession of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and a ...

Aurora Kinase B Regulates Telomerase Activity via a Centromeric RNA in Stem Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Non-coding RNAs can modulate histone modifications that, at the same time, affect transcript expression levels. Here, we dissect such a network in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). It regulates the activity of the reverse transcriptase telomerase, which

Present Status and Future Management Strategies for Sugarcane Yellow Leaf Virus: A Major Constraint to the Global Sugarcane Production

open access: yesThe Plant Pathology Journal, 2020
Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) is a distinct member of the Polerovirus genus of the Luteoviridae family. SCYLV is the major limitation to sugarcane production worldwide and presently occurring in most of the sugarcane growing countries. SCYLV having

Organization of the Structural Protein Region of La Jolla Virus Isolated from the Invasive Pest Insect Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesViruses, 2021
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 ...

Minor Loops in Major Folds: Enhancer-Promoter Looping, Chromatin Restructuring, and Their Association with Transcriptional Regulation and Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The organization and folding of chromatin within the nucleus can determine the outcome of gene expression. Recent technological advancements have enabled us to study chromatin interactions in a genome-wide manner at high resolution.
