Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Identification of gene family members and a key structural variation reveal important roles of OVATE genes in regulating tea (Camellia sinensis) leaf development

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
OVATE genes are a new class of transcriptional repressors with important regulatory roles in plant growth and development. Through genome-wide analysis of the OVATE gene family of tea plants, 26 and 13 family members were identified in cultivated and ...

Newest Methods for Detecting Structural Variations [PDF]

Trends in Biotechnology, 2019
A substantial amount of structural variation in the human genome remains uninvestigated due to the limitations of existing technologies, the presence of repetitive sequences, and the complexity of a diploid genome. New technologies have been developed, increasing resolution and appreciation of structural variation and how it affects human diversity and

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Structural Variations Associated with Adaptation and Coat Color in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau Cattle

Advanced Science
Structural variations (SVs) play crucial roles in the evolutionary adaptation of domesticated animals to natural and human‐controlled environments, but SVs have not been explored in Tibetan cattle, which recently migrated and rapidly adapted to the high ...

Towards a 'canonical' agranular cortical microcircuit

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Based on regularities in the intrinsic microcircuitry of cortical areas, variants of a 'canonical' cortical microcircuit have been proposed and widely adopted, particularly in computational neuroscience and neuroinformatics.

Somatic structural variation and cancer [PDF]

Briefings in Functional Genomics, 2015
With the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, we have witnessed a rapid pace of discovery of new patterns of somatic structural variation in cancer genomes, and an attempt to figure out their underlying mechanisms. Some of these mechanisms are associated with particular cancer types, and in some cases are the main cause of the structural ...

SCNVSim: somatic copy number variation and structure variation simulator [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2015
Somatically acquired structure variations (SVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) can induce genetic changes that are directly related to tumor genesis. Somatic SV/CNV detection using next-generation sequencing (NGS) data still faces major challenges introduced by tumor sample characteristics, such as ploidy, heterogeneity, and purity.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
