The mitochondrial genome of the bioluminescent fish Malacosteus niger Ayres, 1848 (Stomiidae, Actinopterygii) is large and complex, and contains an inverted-repeat structure [PDF]
We determined the complete mitogenome sequence of the bioluminescent fish Malacosteus niger using long-read sequencing technologies. The 21,263 bp mitogenome features a complex structure with two copies of a 1198-bp inverted-repeat and a region of 2616 ...

Mechanism for inverted-repeat recombination induced by a replication fork barrier [PDF]
Replication stress and abundant repetitive sequences have emerged as primary conditions underlying genomic instability in eukaryotes. Here the authors use a prokaryotic Tus/Ter barrier designed to induce transient replication fork stalling near inverted ...

Plastid genomes of the North American Rhus integrifolia-ovata complex and phylogenomic implications of inverted repeat structural evolution in Rhus L. [PDF]
Plastid genomes (plastomes) represent rich sources of information for phylogenomics, from higher-level studies to below the species level. The genus Rhus (sumac) has received a significant amount of study from phylogenetic and biogeographic perspectives,

Unexpected invasion of miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements in viral genomes [PDF]
Background Transposable elements (TEs) are common and often present with high copy numbers in cellular genomes. Unlike in cellular organisms, TEs were previously thought to be either rare or absent in viruses.

Evidence for active maintenance of inverted repeat structures identified by a comparative genomic approach. [PDF]
Inverted repeats have been found to occur in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Usually they are short and some have important functions in various biological processes.

airpg: automatically accessing the inverted repeats of archived plastid genomes
Background In most flowering plants, the plastid genome exhibits a quadripartite genome structure, comprising a large and a small single copy as well as two inverted repeat regions. Thousands of plastid genomes have been sequenced and submitted to public

Size of gene specific inverted repeat--dependent gene deletion In Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
We describe here an approach for rapidly producing scar-free and precise gene deletions in S. cerevisiae with high efficiency. Preparation of the disruption gene cassette in this approach was simply performed by overlap extension-PCR of an invert repeat ...

detectIR: a novel program for detecting perfect and imperfect inverted repeats using complex numbers and vector calculation. [PDF]
Inverted repeats are present in abundance in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes and can form DNA secondary structures--hairpins and cruciforms that are involved in many important biological processes.

The complete chloroplast genome of ornamental and medicinal Callerya dielsiana (Fabaceae)
Callerya dielsiana is a Chinese endemic tropical/subtropical liana. We sequenced the complete chloroplast genome with the Illumina Hiseq X-Ten platform. The genome is obtained with 132,301 bp in length, lacking an inverted repeat (IR) region, contains 4 ...
