Theory on the mechanism of DNA renaturation: Stochastic nucleation and zipping [PDF]
Renaturation of complementary single strands of DNA is one of the important processes that requires better understanding in the view of molecular biology and biological physics.

Repetitive sequences: the hidden diversity of heterochromatin in prochilodontid fish
The structure and organization of repetitive elements in fish genomes are still relatively poorly understood, although most of these elements are believed to be located in heterochromatic regions.

Characterization of two marker chromosomes in a patient with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia by two-color fluorescence in situ hybridization [PDF]
A patient with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL), M5b according to French-American-British (FAB) classification, showed monosomy 16, an extra 1p−, and a 21q+. These derivative chromosomes could not be defined by GTG-banding.

Embryo culture in presence of oviductal fluid induces DNA methylation changes in bovine blastocysts [PDF]
During the transit through the oviduct, the early embryo initiates an extensive DNA methylation reprogramming of its genome. Given that these epigenetic modifications are susceptible to environmental factors, components present in the oviductal milieu ...

A species-specific satellite DNA family in the genome of the coffee root-knot nematode Meloidogyne exigua : Application to molecular diagnostics of the parasite [PDF]
A new Bg/II satellite DNA has been isolated, cloned and sequenced from the coffee root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne exigua (Nematoda: Tylenchida). It is represented as tandemly repeated sequences with a monomeric unit of 277 bp. The monomers are present at

Rapid evolution of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae for Xylose fermentation through formation of extra-chromosomal circular DNA. [PDF]
Circular DNA elements are involved in genome plasticity, particularly of tandem repeats. However, amplifications of DNA segments in Saccharomyces cerevisiae reported so far involve pre-existing repetitive sequences such as ribosomal DNA, Ty elements and ...

Silent but not static: accelerated base-pair substitution in silenced chromatin of budding yeasts. [PDF]
Subtelomeric DNA in budding yeasts, like metazoan heterochromatin, is gene poor, repetitive, transiently silenced, and highly dynamic. The rapid evolution of subtelomeric regions is commonly thought to arise from transposon activity and increased ...
