Meiosis genes in and the role of parthenogenesis in genome evolution [PDF]
Background Thousands of parthenogenetic animal species have been described and cytogenetic manifestations of this reproductive mode are well known. However, little is understood about the molecular determinants of parthenogenesis.

Factors modifying the risk for developing acute skin toxicity after whole-breast intensity modulated radiotherapy [PDF]
Background: After breast-conserving radiation therapy most patients experience acute skin toxicity to some degree. This may impair patients' quality of life, cause pain and discomfort. In this study, we investigated treatment and patient-related factors,

DNA repair mechanisms and gametogenesis [PDF]
In mammals, there is a complex and intriguing relationship between DNA repair and gametogenesis. DNA repair mechanisms are involved not only in the repair of different types of DNA damage in developing germline cells, but ...

Characterization and comparative sequence analysis of the DNA mismatch repair MSH2 and MSH7 genes from tomato [PDF]
DNA mismatch repair proteins play an essential role in maintaining genomic integrity during replication and genetic recombination. We successfully isolated a full length MSH2 and partial MSH7 cDNAs from tomato, based on sequence similarity between MutS ...

Endonuclease activities of MutLα and its homologs in DNA mismatch repair. [PDF]
MutLα is a key component of the DNA mismatch repair system in eukaryotes. The DNA mismatch repair system has several genetic stabilization functions. Of these functions, DNA mismatch repair is the major one.
