Attempts to detect retrotransposition and de novo deletion of Alus and other dispersed repeats at specific loci in the human genome [PDF]

, 2001
Dispersed repeat elements contribute to genome instability by de novo insertion and unequal recombination between repeats. To study the dynamics of these processes, we have developed single DNA molecule approaches to detect de novo insertions at a single

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

The 3D genome of Gigaspora margarita unveils stable chromatin and nucleolar organization and symbiont‐dependent genome dynamics

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

The recombinases Rad51 and Dmc1 play distinct roles in DNA break repair and recombination partner choice in the meiosis of Tetrahymena.

PLoS Genetics, 2011
Repair of programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by meiotic recombination relies on the generation of flanking 3' single-stranded DNA overhangs and their interaction with a homologous double-stranded DNA template.

Pushing the (nuclear) envelope into meiosis. [PDF]

, 2013
A recent study shows that a short isoform of a mammalian nuclear lamin is important for homologous chromosome interactions during meiotic prophase in ...

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Meiotic sex chromosome cohesion and autosomal synapsis are supported by Esco2.

, 2020
In mitotic cells, establishment of sister chromatid cohesion requires acetylation of the cohesin subunit SMC3 (acSMC3) by ESCO1 and/or ESCO2. Meiotic cohesin plays additional but poorly understood roles in the formation of chromosome axial elements (AEs)

Massive gene amplification on a recently formed Drosophila Y chromosome. [PDF]

, 2019
Widespread loss of genes on the Y is considered a hallmark of sex chromosome differentiation. Here we show that the initial stages of Y evolution are driven by massive amplification of distinct classes of genes. The neo-Y chromosome of Drosophila miranda

Crossability Relations of Domesticated Peas (Pisum sativum and Pisum abyssinicum) With Wild Pisum fulvum and Drought Response Assessment of P. sativum × P. fulvum Progenies

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The productivity and quality of grain crops in semiarid environments is often affected by drought, which is likely to accentuate due to predicted climate changes. Wild pea (Pisum fulvum Sibth. & Smith) accessions are known to harbour useful allelic diversity for drought responses.

Defending the genome from the enemy within:mechanisms of retrotransposon suppression in the mouse germline [PDF]

, 2013
The viability of any species requires that the genome is kept stable as it is transmitted from generation to generation by the germ cells. One of the challenges to transgenerational genome stability is the potential mutagenic activity of transposable ...
