Evolutionary History of Bacteriophages in the Genus Paraburkholderia

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The genus Paraburkholderia encompasses mostly environmental isolates with diverse predicted lifestyles. Genome analyses have shown that bacteriophages form a considerable portion of some Paraburkholderia genomes.

Sukkula retrotransposon movements in the human genome

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2017
Retrotransposons, a subclass of mobile genetic elements, have been discovered in many organisms. In this study, we identified a plant-specific retrotransposon (Sukkula) in the human genome (24 different DNA samples) by using retrotransposon-based ...

New Viruses Infecting Hyperthermophilic Bacterium Thermus thermophilus

Viruses
Highly diverse phages infecting thermophilic bacteria of the Thermus genus have been isolated over the years from hot springs around the world. Many of these phages are unique, rely on highly unusual developmental strategies, and encode novel enzymes ...

Investigating mobile element variations by statistical genetics

Human Genome Variation
Abstract The integration of structural variations (SVs) in statistical genetics provides an opportunity to understand the genetic factors influencing complex human traits and disease. Recent advances in long-read technology and variant calling methods for short reads have improved the accurate discovery and genotyping of SVs, enabling their ...
