Plant Retrotransposons

open access: yes, 1999
▪ Abstract  Retrotransposons are mobile genetic elements that transpose through reverse transcription of an RNA intermediate. Retrotransposons are ubiquitous in plants and play a major role in plant gene and genome evolution.

Case Report: Early-Onset Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia in Patient With Retrotransposed Full-Length Transcript of Matrin-3 Variant 5

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) rarely occurs in individuals under the age of 30, and genetic causes of early-onset FTD are largely unknown. The current report follows a 27 year-old patient with no significant past medical history presenting with two years

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

Retrotransposon life cycle and its impacts on cellular responses

open access: yesRNA Biology
Approximately 45% of the human genome is comprised of transposable elements (TEs), also known as mobile genetic elements. However, their biological function remains largely unknown.

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

In silico analysis of Apostasia wallichii (Apostasioideae) and Ludisia discolor (Orchidoideae) orchids reveals different repeats composition despite the same genome size [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Repetitive sequences can lead to variation in DNA quantity and composition among species. The Orchidaceae, the largest angiosperm family, is divided into five subfamilies, with Apostasioideae as the basal group and Orchidoideae and Epidendroideae showing

From knowledge to action: the importance of characterizing herbicide resistance mechanisms for implementing management strategies

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This review bridges the gap between understanding resistance mechanisms and applying them in weed management, highlighting how mechanistic insights reveal vulnerabilities that can guide more effective control strategies. Abstract Herbicide resistance remains one of the most intensively studied areas in weed science because of its direct consequences ...

2024 Update of Retro-Transposons in the Aspergillus and Penicillium Genera and Other Filamentous Fungi

open access: yes, 2021
Retrotransposons are mobile genetic elements that can generate genomic diversity, impacting gene expression and genomic stability. This thesis investigates the role of Copia-type retrotransposons, specifically Ty1 elements, in filamentous fungi like ...

KRAB-zinc finger protein gene expansion in response to active retrotransposons in the murine lineage

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The Krüppel-associated box zinc finger protein (KRAB-ZFP) family diversified in mammals. The majority of human KRAB-ZFPs bind transposable elements (TEs), however, since most TEs are inactive in humans it is unclear whether KRAB-ZFPs emerged to suppress ...

Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.
