Virophages and retrotransposons colonize the genomes of a heterotrophic flagellate
eLife, 2021 Virophages can parasitize giant DNA viruses and may provide adaptive anti-giant virus defense in unicellular eukaryotes. Under laboratory conditions, the virophage mavirus integrates into the nuclear genome of the marine flagellate Cafeteria burkhardae ...

Molecular cytogenetic mapping of Cucumis sativus and C. melo using highly repetitive DNA sequences [PDF]
, 2010 Chromosomes often serve as one of the most important molecular aspects of studying the evolution of species. Indeed, most of the crucial mutations that led to differentiation of species during the evolution have occurred at the chromosomal level ...

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1992 In the decade since Ty elements were discovered, advocates have argued they could be used as a genetic entrée to elusive host-type functions required by retroviruses. However, the advent of the polymerase chain reaction, coupled with a boom in funding for human immunodeficiency virus research have moved retroviral research apace, raising questions as ...

Scattered organization of the histone multigene family and transposable elements in Synbranchus
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2014 The fish species Synbranchus marmoratus is widely distributed throughout the Neotropical region and exhibits a significant karyotype differentiation. However, data concerning the organization and location of the repetitive DNA sequences in the genomes of

Agouti C57BL/6N embryonic stem cells for mouse genetic resources. [PDF]
, 2009 We report the characterization of a highly germline competent C57BL/6N mouse embryonic stem cell line, JM8. To simplify breeding schemes, the dominant agouti coat color gene was restored in JM8 cells by targeted repair of the C57BL/6 nonagouti mutation ...

TUT-TUTting retrotransposons [PDF]
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2018 3′uridylation by TUT4 and TUT7 is shown as a post-transcriptional mechanism restricting retrotransposition of LINE-1 elements and also replication of animal RNA viruses.

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 Most ribosomal proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are encoded by two paralogs that additively produce the optimal protein level for cell growth. Nonetheless, deleting one paralog of most ribosomal protein gene pairs results in a variety of phenotypes ...

The 5' untranslated region of the I factor, a long interspersed nuclear element-like retrotransposon of Drosophila melanogaster, contains an internal promoter and sequences that regulate expression [PDF]
, 1993 The I-R system of hybrid dysgenesis in Drosophila melanogaster is controlled by a long interspersed nuclear element-like retroposon, the I factor.

A seed-specific regulator of triterpene saponin biosynthesis in Medicago truncatula [PDF]
, 2020 Plants produce a vast array of defense compounds to protect themselves from pathogen attack or herbivore predation. Saponins are a specific class of defense compounds comprising bioactive glycosides with a steroidal or triterpenoid aglycone backbone. The

Retrotransposon Domain Swapping [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2010 Whether you consider them major genomic parasites or potentially major drivers of genome expansion, long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons are major, making up 15 to 90% of plant nuclear genomes (reviewed in Sabot and Schulman, 2006). These elements transpose by a replicate-and-paste mechanism, wherein an RNA copy of the retrotransposon is reverse
