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.

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 ...

Retrotransposon-derived small RNAs.

open access: yes, 2019
Different retrotransposons are associated with different length distribution of small RNAs from mouse oocytes suggesting partially redundant repression of retrotransposons by endogenous RNAi and piRNA pathways.

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Comparing Two Varieties of Blood Orange: A Differential Methylation Region Within the Specific Encoding Sequence of a Retrotransposon Adjacent to the Ruby Locus

open access: yesHorticulturae
The blood orange arose from the insertion of a retrotransposon adjacent to the Ruby gene, an MYB-type transcriptional activator of anthocyanin production, as reported previously.

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

Transposable Element Dynamics Drive the Genomic Evolution and Phenotypic Diversification of Allotetraploid Common Carp

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating 516 whole‐genome resequencing datasets and 236 transcriptomes of allotetraploid common carp, this study establishes the first population‐scale atlas of transposable element (TE) variation in teleost species. TE bursts, relaxed purifying selection, and lineage‐specific loss of ancient insertions shape genome evolution and phenotypic ...

Reverse Mutations in Pigmentation Induced by Sodium Azide in the IR64 Rice Variety

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
Pigmentation in rice is due mainly to the accumulation of anthocyanins. Five color mutant lines, AZ1701, AZ1702, AZ1711, AZ1714, and AZ1715, derived from the sodium azide mutagenesis on the non-pigmented IR64 variety, were applied to study inheritance ...

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare
