Mobile genetic elements – mechanism and consequences of transposition
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017 Retrotransposons represent a significant part of the genome in eukaryote organisms. With DNA transposons, they belong to mobile genetic elements. There are two classes of transposons, DNA transposons and retrotransposons.

AN UNSTABLE NUCLEAR GENE IN PHYCOMYCES [PDF]
Genetics, 1979 ABSTRACT A gentic instability in Phycomyces is described that appears to be associated with a single nuclear gene, dar. The wild type is able to take up riboflavin and its toxic analogue, deaza-riboflavin, from nanomolar concentrations in the medium.

The Role of Nuclear Bodies in Gene Expression and Disease
Biology, 2013 This review summarizes the current understanding of the role of nuclear bodies in regulating gene expression. The compartmentalization of cellular processes, such as ribosome biogenesis, RNA processing, cellular response to stress, transcription ...

Cell biological mechanisms of activity-dependent synapse to nucleus translocation of CRTC1 in neurons. [PDF]
, 2015 Previous studies have revealed a critical role for CREB-regulated transcriptional coactivator (CRTC1) in regulating neuronal gene expression during learning and memory. CRTC1 localizes to synapses but undergoes activity-dependent nuclear translocation to

Nuclear miRNAs: gene regulation activities
International Journal of Molecular SciencesMicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs, which contribute to the regulation of many physiolog-ical and pathological processes. Conventionally, miRNAs perform their activity in the cyto-plasm, where they regulate gene expression by interacting in a sequence-specific manner with mature messenger RNAs.

Nuclear positioning, gene activity, and cancer [PDF]
Cancer Biology & Therapy, 2005 In the interphasic nucleus, chromosomes are non-randomly arranged within the nuclear space. Indeed, chromosomes are thought to be organised into "chromosome territories". The size of a chromosome territory is roughly determined by its DNA content, but is also influenced by other factors, such as their transcriptional status. Chromatin modifications and

Detection and characterization of Sp1 binding activity in human chondrocytes and its alterations during chondrocyte dedifferentiation. [PDF]
, 1997 We have detected DNA binding activity for a synthetic oligonucleotide containing an Sp1 consensus sequence in nuclear extracts from human chondrocytes. Changes in the levels of Sp1 oligonucleotide binding activity were examined in nuclear extracts from ...
