The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...

The Capsaspora genome reveals a complex unicellular prehistory of animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To reconstruct the evolutionary origin of multicellular animals from their unicellular ancestors, the genome sequences of diverse unicellular relatives are essential. However, only the genome of the choanoflagellate Monosiga brevicollis has been reported

Toward Tailoring Chemistry of Silica-Based Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Storage

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Efficient thermal energy harvesting using phase change materials (PCMs) has great potential for thermal energy storage and thermal management applications. Benefiting from these merits of pore structure diversity, convenient controllability, and

Locus specific engineering of tandem DNA repeats in the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae using CRISPR/Cas9 and overlapping oligonucleotides

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
DNA repeats constitute a large part of genomes of multicellular eucaryotes. For a longtime considered as junk DNA, their role in genome organization and tuning of gene expression is being increasingly documented.

Immune Regulation in Time and Space: The Role of Local- and Long-Range Genomic Interactions in Regulating Immune Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mammals face and overcome an onslaught of endogenous and exogenous challenges in order to survive. Typical immune cells and barrier cells, such as epithelia, must respond rapidly and effectively to encountered pathogens and aberrant cells to prevent ...

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.
