An intriguing shift occurs in the novel protein phosphatase 1 binding partner, TCTEX1D4: evidence of positive selection in a pika model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 T-complex testis expressed protein 1 domain containing 4 (TCTEX1D4) contains the canonical phosphoprotein phosphatase 1 (PPP1) binding motif, composed by the amino acid sequence RVSF.

X-linked palindromic gene families 4930567H17Rik and Mageb5 are dispensable for male mouse fertility
Scientific Reports, 2022 Mammalian sex chromosomes are enriched for large, nearly-identical, palindromic sequences harboring genes expressed predominately in testicular germ cells.

The mitochondrial and plastid genomes of
BMC Genomics, 2009 Background The magnitude of noncoding DNA in organelle genomes can vary significantly; it is argued that much of this variation is attributable to the dissemination of selfish DNA.

String attractors of Rote sequences [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer ScienceIn this paper, we describe minimal string attractors (of size two) of pseudopalindromic prefixes of standard complementary-symmetric Rote sequences. Such a class of Rote sequences forms a subclass of binary generalized pseudostandard sequences, i.e., of ...

A willow sex chromosome reveals convergent evolution of complex palindromic repeats
Genome Biology, 2020 Background Sex chromosomes have arisen independently in a wide variety of species, yet they share common characteristics, including the presence of suppressed recombination surrounding sex determination loci.

Totally positive refinable functions with general dilation M [PDF]
, 2017 We construct a new class of approximating functions that are M-refinable and provide shape preserving approximations. The refinable functions in the class are smooth, compactly supported, centrally symmetric and totally positive.

Extensions of rich words [PDF]
, 2013 In [X. Droubay et al, Episturmian words and some constructions of de Luca and Rauzy, Theoret. Comput. Sci. 255 (2001)], it was proved that every word w has at most |w|+1 many distinct palindromic factors, including the empty word.

EERTREE: An Efficient Data Structure for Processing Palindromes in Strings [PDF]
, 2015 We propose a new linear-size data structure which provides a fast access to all palindromic substrings of a string or a set of strings. This structure inherits some ideas from the construction of both the suffix trie and suffix tree. Using this structure,
