An improved Plasmodium cynomolgi genome assembly reveals an unexpected methyltransferase gene expansion. [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Plasmodium cynomolgi, a non-human primate malaria parasite species, has been an important model parasite since its discovery in 1907. Similarities in the biology of P.

Evolutionary dynamics of olfactory receptor genes in chordates: interaction between environments and genomic contents

Human Genomics, 2009
Olfaction is essential for the survival of animals. Versatile odour molecules in the environment are received by olfactory receptors (ORs), which form the largest multigene family in vertebrates. Identification of the entire repertories of OR genes using

Accessing the Variability of Multicopy Genes in Complex Genomes using Unassembled Next-Generation Sequencing Reads: The Case of Trypanosoma cruzi Multigene Families

mBio, 2022
Repetitive elements cause assembly fragmentation in complex eukaryotic genomes, limiting the study of their variability. The genome of Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease, has a high repetitive content, including multigene families.

Claudin multigene family encoding four-transmembrane domain protein components of tight junction strands.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1999
Two related integral membrane proteins, claudin-1 and -2, recently were identified as novel components of tight junction (TJ) strands. Here, we report six more claudin-like proteins, indicating the existence of a claudin gene family.

DIFFERENTIATION OF A MULTIGENE FAMILY BETWEEN POPULATIONS [PDF]

Evolution, 1987
Differentiation of a multigene family between populations is investigated under the forces of intrachromosomal unbiased gene conversion, neutral mutation, recombination, and random drift. The infinite-site model without recombination within the gene is employed, and the average numbers of the different sites between pairs of genes at the same locus and

RBCS1A and RBCS3B, two major members within the Arabidopsis RBCS multigene family, function to yield sufficient Rubisco content for leaf photosynthetic capacity

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2012
Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) small subunit (RBCS) is encoded by a nuclear RBCS multigene family in many plant species.

Expression of genes related to flavonoid and stilbene synthesis as affected by signaling chemicals and Botrytis cinerea in grapevines

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
Recent studies have shown that the expression of genes related to the synthesis of flavonoids, such as the phenylalanineammonia lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), and stilbene synthase (STS) genes were induced in response to ...

Quadruple context-free L-System mathematical tools as origin of biological evolution [PDF]

, 2010
It is well known that A, T, G, C annealed together early in evolution and the long stretch of DNA was found which ultimately resulted into chromosomes of different organisms.

Effect of individual suppression of RBCS multigene family on Rubisco contents in rice leaves.

Plant, Cell and Environment, 2012
In higher plants, a small subunit of Rubisco is encoded for by an RBCS multigene family in the nuclear genome. However, it is unknown how each multigene member contributes to the accumulation of Rubisco holoenzyme.

First identified Korean family with Tatton-Brown-Rahman Syndrome caused by the novel variant c.118G>C p.(Glu40Gln) [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2019
Tatton-Brown-Rahman Syndrome (TBRS), an overgrowth syndrome caused by heterozygous mutation of DNMT3A, first was described in 2014. Approximately 60 DNMT3A variants, including 32 missense variants, have been reported, with most missense mutations located
