Nanoscale Spatial Organization of ARC High‐ and Low‐Order Assemblies at Excitatory Synapses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ARC (Activity‐Regulated Cytoskeleton‐Associated protein) mediates synaptic plasticity by forming nanoscale assemblies in neurons. Using super‐resolution microscopy and time‐resolved anisotropy with targeted tagging, the study reveals low‐order ARC assemblies at synapses colocalizing with AMPARs, semi‐circular structures at endocytic zones, and 60–80 nm

RDA coupled with deep sequencing detects somatic SVA-retrotranspositions and mosaicism in the human brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Cells of the developing human brain are affected by the progressive acquisition of genetic and epigenetic alterations that have been reported to contribute to somatic mosaicism in the adult brain and are increasingly considered a possible cause of ...

The nitrate transporter family protein LjNPF8.6 controls the N-fixing nodule activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
N-fixing nodules are new organs formed on legume roots as a result of the beneficial interaction with soil bacteria, rhizobia. The nodule functioning is still a poorly characterized step of the symbiotic interaction, as only a few of the genes induced in

Epigenetic reactivation of LINE‐1 retrotransposon disrupts NuRD corepressor functions and induces oncogenic transformation in human bronchial epithelial cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2018
Long interspersed nuclear element‐1 (LINE‐1 or L1) reactivation is linked to poor prognosis in non‐small‐cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), but the molecular bases of this response remain largely unknown.

Intragenic L1 Insertion: One Possibility of Brain Disorder

open access: yesLife, 2022
Long interspersed nuclear element 1 (LINE1, L1) is a retrotransposon comprising ~17% of the human genome. A subset of L1s maintains the potential to mobilize and alter the genomic landscape, consequently contributing to the change in genome integrity and

A chromosome-scale genome assembly of Hordeum erectifolium: genomic, transcriptomic and anatomical adaptations to drought in a wild barley relative. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary Wild crop relatives are valuable genetic resources for improving stress adaptation in cultivated species, but their effective use depends on high‐quality reference genomes integrated with phenotypic and molecular datasets. Hordeum erectifolium, a wild relative of barley (H.

Nucleosomes affect local transformation efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic transformation is a natural process during which foreign DNA enters a cell and integrates into the genome. Apart from its relevance for horizontal gene transfer in nature, transformation is also the cornerstone of today's recombinant gene ...

Haplotype‐Resolved 3D Genomic Landscapes and Their Impacts on Agronomic Traits in Grapevine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a haplotype‐resolved 3D genomic landscape of grapevine, revealing that structural variations (SVs) are closely associated with phased topologically associating domain (TAD) boundary transitions. These rearrangements coordinate with allele‐specific DNA methylation (ASM) and allele‐biased gene expression (ASE) to shape key agronomic ...
