Measuring vertebrate telomeres: applications and limitations [PDF]

, 2004
Telomeres are short tandem repeated sequences of DNA found at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes that function in stabilizing chromosomal end integrity.

Telomere‐to‐telomere genome assembly reveals insights into the adaptive evolution of herbivore‐defense mediated by volatile terpenoids in Oenanthe javanica

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 2346-2357, June 2025.
Summary Releasing large quantities of volatiles is a defense strategy used by plants to resist herbivore attack. Oenanthe javanica, a perennial herb of the Apiaceae family, has a distinctive aroma due to volatile terpenoid accumulation. At present, the complete genome and genetic characteristics of volatile terpenoids in O.

Optimising Exome Captures in Species With Large Genomes Using Species‐Specific Repetitive DNA Blocker

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 3, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Large and highly repetitive genomes are common. However, research interests usually lie within the non‐repetitive parts of the genome, as they are more likely functional, and can be used to answer questions related to adaptation, selection and evolutionary history.

Prognostic value of replication errors on chromosomes 2p and 3p in non-small-cell lung cancer [PDF]

, 2018
As chromosomes 2p and 3p are frequent targets for genomic instability in lung cancer, we have addressed whether alterations of simple (CA)n DNA repeats occur in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at early stages.

Functional Analysis of Complex Structural and Splice‐Altering Variants in the ARSB Gene Towards the Personalized Antisense‐Based Therapy for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type VI Patients

Human Mutation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Mucopolysaccharidosis Type VI (MPS VI) is a lysosomal storage disorder associated with biallelic pathogenic variants in the ARSB gene. Herein, we present three patients with biochemical and clinical pictures of MPS VI, for whom routine molecular genetic analysis using Sanger sequencing of ARSB failed to identify one or both causative variants.

Chromosome mapping of dragline silk genes in the genomes of widow spiders (araneae, theridiidae) [PDF]

, 2010
With its incredible strength and toughness, spider dragline silk is widely lauded for its impressive material properties. Dragline silk is composed of two structural proteins, MaSp1 and MaSp2, which are encoded by members of the spidroin gene family ...

Nightside Neutral Density Disturbances Collocated With Equatorial Plasma Irregularities Above 450 km: GRACE and GRACE‐FO Observations in 2002–2022

Space Weather, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract We investigate the climatology of Neutral Density Disturbances (NDDs) collocated with Equatorial Plasma Irregularities (EPIs) at altitudes above 450 km by using 20 years of data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE‐FO satellites.

hnRNP A1 associates with telomere ends and stimulates telomerase activity [PDF]

, 2006
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme complex that reverse-transcribes an integral RNA template to add short DNA repeats to the 3'-ends of telomeres. G-quadruplex structure in a DNA substrate can block its extension by telomerase.

Chloroplast DNA Inheritance in the Orchid Anacamptis palustris Using Single-Seed Polymerase Chain Reaction [PDF]

, 2017
The modality of chloroplast inheritance in orchids has been investigated only in a few species due to the difficulties associated with the analysis of large progeny numbers from experimental crosses.
