The Bovidae CSN2 Locus as a Multilayered Evolutionary System: Evidence from Retroposons, Trans-Species Variation and Ancient Recombination

Animals
The β-casein gene (CSN2) encodes one of the major milk proteins involved in calcium and phosphorus transport and combines a highly conserved genomic organization with extensive genetic diversity, making it an informative model for investigating mammalian

Atrx promotes heterochromatin formation at retrotransposons

, 2015
Sadic D, Schmidt K, Groh S, et al. Atrx promotes heterochromatin formation at retrotransposons. EMBO reports. 2015;16(7):836-850.More than 50% of mammalian genomes consist of retrotransposon sequences.

The impact of local environmental differences on the phenotypic plasticity and genetic variation of Kazakhstani populations of Paeonia anomala

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Medicinal plants are highly vulnerable to overexploitation and environmental pressures, leading to a risk of extinction. Local ecological heterogeneity influences phenotypic variability and adaptive responses to stress.

Epigenetic Dysregulation of Retrotransposons in Cancer

Approximately 97% of the human genome comprises noncoding sequences, with nearly half originating from transposable elements. Among these, retrotransposons represent a critical subclass that replicates via a “copy-and-paste” mechanism and significantly ...

Whole genome regulatory effect of MoISW2 and consequences for the evolution of the rice plant pathogenic fungus Magnaporthe oryzae

mBio
Isw2 proteins, ubiquitous across eukaryotes, exhibit a propensity for DNA binding and exert dynamic influences on local chromosome condensation in an ATP-dependent fashion, thereby modulating the accessibility of neighboring genes to transcriptional ...

Active LTR Retrotransposons Shaping the Dynamic Evolution of Maize Genomes

Long terminal repeats (LTR) retrotransposons are transposable elements which can copy and insert themselves into other loci within a genome. These transposable elements are similar to retroviruses in that they rely on reverse transcriptase to “copy and ...
