Exploring the Relationship between Fusion Genes and MicroRNAs in Cancer
Cells, 2023 Fusion genes are key cancer driver genes that can be used as potential drug targets in precision therapies, and they can also serve as accurate diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.

Can Introns Stabilize Gene Duplication?
Biology, 2022 Gene duplication is considered one of the most important events that determine the evolution of genomes. However, the neo-duplication condition of a given gene is particularly unstable due to recombination events. Several mechanisms have been proposed to

Comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genomes of four cordyceps fungi
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Cordyceps is a large group of entomogenous, medicinally important fungi. In this study, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated the entire mitochondrial genome of Ophiocordyceps xuefengensis, in addition to comparing it against other three complete ...

The position of the longest intron is related to biological functions in some human genes
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 The evidence that introns can influence different levels of transfer of genetic information between DNA and the final product is increasing. Longer first introns were found to be a general property of eukaryotic gene structure and shown to contain a ...

Horizontal Transfer and Gene Loss Shaped the Evolution of Alpha-Amylases in Bilaterians
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 The subfamily GH13_1 of alpha-amylases is typical of Fungi, but it is also found in some unicellular eukaryotes (e.g., Amoebozoa, choanoflagellates) and non-bilaterian Metazoa.

Comprehensive database and evolutionary dynamics of U12-type introns
Nucleic Acids Research, 2020 During nuclear maturation of most eukaryotic pre-messenger RNAs and long non-coding RNAs, introns are removed through the process of RNA splicing. Different classes of introns are excised by the U2-type or the U12-type spliceosomes, large complexes of ...

Polymorphisms of mbl gene introns and their association with mbl serum levels in hu sheep [PDF]
Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2019 PCR single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and DNA sequencing techniques were used to analyze the genetic polymorphism of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) gene 3 introns in Hu sheep.

Identification of an Exceptionally Long Intron in the
mSphere, 2018 The unfolded protein response (UPR) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is well conserved in eukaryotes from metazoa to yeast. The transcription factor HAC1 is a major regulator of the UPR in many eukaryotes. Deleting HAC1 in the yeast Candida parapsilosis
