Polymorphism of the rps16 gene intron in Malus Mill. and related Rosaceae Juss. species
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017 The intron of the chloroplast rps16 gene encoding ribosomal protein 16S belongs to group II introns, which have the capacity to self-splice. The sequence of this intron may be quite polymorphic and is widely used for molecular-genetic studies of ...

The role of transposable elements in the evolution of non-mammalian vertebrates and invertebrates [PDF]
Genome Biology 2010, 11:R59, 2010 Background: Transposable elements (TEs) have played an important role in the diversification and enrichment of mammalian transcriptomes through various mechanisms such as exonization and intronization (the birth of new exons/introns from previously intronic/exonic sequences, respectively), and insertion into first and last exons.

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 Pseudo-nitzschia is an important genus of diatoms with many species capable of inducing harmful algae blooms (HABs) in coastal and oceanic waters, some of which produce the toxin domoic acid (DA), a neurotoxin that causes amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP)

Mechanically probing the folding pathway of single RNA molecules [PDF]
Biophys. J. 84 (2003) 2831-2840, 2002 We study theoretically the denaturation of single RNA molecules by mechanical stretching, focusing on signatures of the (un)folding pathway in molecular fluctuations. Our model describes the interactions between nucleotides by incorporating the experimentally determined free energy rules for RNA secondary structure, while exterior single stranded ...

Dispersion of the RmInt1 group II intron in the Sinorhizobium meliloti genome upon acquisition by conjugative transfer [PDF]
, 2006 RmInt1 is a self-splicing and mobile group II intron initially identified in the bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti, which encodes a reverse transcriptase–maturase (Intron Encoded Protein, IEP) lacking the C-terminal DNA binding (D) and DNA endonuclease ...

Exons, introns and DNA thermodynamics [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 178101 (2005), 2004 The genes of eukaryotes are characterized by protein coding fragments, the exons, interrupted by introns, i.e. stretches of DNA which do not carry any useful information for the protein synthesis. We have analyzed the melting behavior of randomly selected human cDNA sequences obtained from the genomic DNA by removing all introns. A clear correspondence

The largest reservoir of mitochondrial introns is a relic of an ancestral split gene [PDF]
, 2010 In eukaryotes, introns are located in nuclear and organelle genes from several kingdoms (ref. 1-4). Large introns (0.1 to 5 kbp) are frequent in mitochondrial genomes of plant and fungi (ref.

Exon sequence requirements for excision in vivo of the bacterial group II intron RmInt1 [PDF]
, 2011 Background Group II intron splicing proceeds through two sequential transesterification reactions in which the 5' and 3'-exons are joined together and the lariat intron is released.

Global Regulators Orchestrate Group II Intron Retromobility [PDF]
Molecular Cell, 2009 Group II introns are hypothesized to share common ancestry with both nuclear spliceosomal introns and retrotransposons, which collectively occupy the majority of genome space in higher eukaryotes. These phylogenetically diverse introns are mobile retroelements that move through an RNA intermediate.
