Mechanisms of gene duplication and translocation and progress towards understanding their relative contributions to animal genome evolution [PDF]
, 2012 Duplication of genetic material is clearly a major route to genetic change, with consequences for both evolution and disease. A variety of forms and mechanisms of duplication are recognised, operating across the scales of a few base pairs upto entire ...

Genomic rearrangements in prostate cancer [PDF]
Current Opinion in Urology, 2015 Genomic instability is a fundamental feature of human cancer, leading to the activation of oncogenes and inactivation of tumor suppressors. In prostate cancer (PCA), structural genomic rearrangements, resulting in gene fusions, amplifications, and deletions, are a critical mechanism effecting these alterations.

Annotation of two large contiguous regions from the Haemonchus contortus genome using RNA-seq and comparative analysis with Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
, 2011 The genomes of numerous parasitic nematodes are currently being sequenced, but their complexity and size, together with high levels of intra-specific sequence variation and a lack of reference genomes, makes their assembly and annotation a challenging ...

Plastome Evolution and Phylogeny of Orchidaceae, With 24 New Sequences
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 In order to understand the evolution of the orchid plastome, we annotated and compared 124 complete plastomes of Orchidaceae representing all the major lineages in their structures, gene contents, gene rearrangements, and IR contractions/expansions ...

Recombination-mediated genome rearrangements
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2021 Homologous recombination (HR) is a universal DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway that uses an intact DNA molecule as a template. Signature HR reactions are homology search and DNA strand invasion catalyzed by the prototypical RecA-ssDNA filament (Rad51 and Dmc1 in eukaryotes), which produces heteroduplex DNA-containing joint molecules (JMs ...

Principles of genome evolution in the Drosophila melanogaster species group.
, 2007 That closely related species often differ by chromosomal inversions was discovered by Sturtevant and Plunkett in 1926. Our knowledge of how these inversions originate is still very limited, although a prevailing view is that they are facilitated by ...

Calculating orthologs in bacteria and archaea : a divide and conquer approach [PDF]
, 2011 Among proteins, orthologs are defined as those that are derived by vertical descent from a single progenitor in the last common ancestor of their host organisms.
