Evidence for active maintenance of inverted repeat structures identified by a comparative genomic approach. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 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.

The mitochondrial genome of the bioluminescent fish Malacosteus niger Ayres, 1848 (Stomiidae, Actinopterygii) is large and complex, and contains an inverted-repeat structure [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2023 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 ...

The Loss of the Inverted Repeat in the Putranjivoid Clade of Malpighiales. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2020 The typical plastid genome (plastome) of photosynthetic angiosperms comprises a pair of Inverted Repeat regions (IRs), which separate a Large Single Copy region (LSC) from a Small Single Copy region (SSC). The independent losses of IRs have been documented in only a few distinct plant lineages.

Stability of an inverted repeat in a human fibrosarcoma cell [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1996 Deletions and rearrangements of DNA sequences within the genome of human cells result in mutations associated with human disease. We have developed a selection system involving a neo gene containing a DNA sequence inserted into the NcoI site that can be used to quantitatively assay deletion of this sequence from the chromosome. The spontaneous deletion

Mechanism for inverted-repeat recombination induced by a replication fork barrier [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 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]
PeerJ, 2020 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,

Concentration of inverted repeats along human DNA
Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics, 2023 This work aims to describe the observed enrichment of inverted repeats in the human genome; and to identify and describe, with detailed length profiles, the regions with significant and relevant enriched occurrence of inverted repeats.

Origin-Dependent Inverted-Repeat Amplification: Tests of a Model for Inverted DNA Amplification.
PLoS Genetics, 2015 DNA replication errors are a major driver of evolution--from single nucleotide polymorphisms to large-scale copy number variations (CNVs). Here we test a specific replication-based model to explain the generation of interstitial, inverted triplications ...

Unexpected invasion of miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements in viral genomes [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2018 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.

INVERTED REPEATS IN VIRAL GENOMES [PDF]
Fluctuation and Noise Letters, 2005 We investigate 738 complete genomes of viruses to detect the presence of short inverted repeats. The number of inverted repeats found is compared with the prediction obtained for a Bernoullian and for a Markovian control model. We find as a statistical regularity that the number of observed inverted repeats is often greater than the one expected in ...
