Long-read sequencing reveals atypical mitochondrial genome structure in a New Zealand marine isopod
Most animal mitochondrial genomes are small, circular and structurally conserved. However, recent work indicates that diverse taxa possess unusual mitochondrial genomes.

Recombination-restarted replication makes inverted chromosome fusions at inverted repeats [PDF]
Impediments to DNA replication are known to induce gross chromosomal rearrangements (GCRs) and copy-number variations (CNVs). GCRs and CNVs underlie human genomic disorders and are a feature of cancer. During cancer development, environmental factors and oncogene-driven proliferation promote replication stress.

Bridging PCR: An Efficient and Reliable Scheme Implemented for Genome-Walking
The efficacy of the available genome-walking methods is restricted by low specificity, high background, or composite operations. We herein conceived bridging PCR, an efficient genome-walking approach.

Fast cloning inverted repeats for RNA interference [PDF]
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can induce post-transcriptional gene silencing in a wide variety of organisms. Commonly, inverted repeats are used to produce dsRNA to silence genes of interest. However, cloning inverted repeats still remains a rate-limiting step for widely applying this technique.

Full-length chloroplast genome of Dongxiang wild rice reveals small single-copy region switching
BackgroundPlant chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) typically has a circular structure, including a large single-copy region (LSC), a small single-copy region (SSC) and two inverted repeats (IR1 and IR2). The organization of these four elementary regions LSC-IR1-SSC-
