Genetic feedback loops can be used by cells to regulate internal processes or to keep track of time. It is often thought that, for a genetic circuit to display self-sustained oscillations, a degree of cooperativity is needed in the binding and unbinding ...

Biochemical and genetic analysis of the embryonic to adult beta-like globin gene switch in chickens has led to the hypothesis that competition between the promoters of the cis-linked epsilon- and beta-globin genes for interaction with a shared enhancer ...

The Network of Replication, Transcription, and Reverse Transcription of a Synthetic Genetic Cassette [PDF]
AbstractSynthetic nucleic acids, with four non‐canonical nucleobases, can function as genetic materials. A comprehensive analysis of PCR amplification, transcription, reverse transcription, and cloning was done to screen for alternative genetic monomers.

Synthetic lethal analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans posterior embryonic patterning genes identifies conserved genetic interactions [PDF]
Phenotypic robustness is evidenced when single-gene mutations do not result in an obvious phenotype. It has been suggested that such phenotypic stability results from 'buffering' activities of homologous genes as well as non-homologous genes acting in ...

Genetic Regulation of Transcription in the Endometrium in Health and Disease [PDF]
The endometrium is a complex and dynamic tissue essential for fertility and implicated in many reproductive disorders. The tissue consists of glandular epithelium and vascularised stroma and is unique because it is constantly shed and regrown with each menstrual cycle, generating up to 10 mm of new mucosa. Consequently, there are marked changes in cell

Gene gating at nuclear pores prevents the formation of R loops [PDF]
Transcription is an important source of genetic variability. A large amount of transcription-associated genome variation arises from the unscheduled formation of R loops.

Genetic association study of UCMA/GRP and OPTN genes (PDB6 locus) with Paget's disease of bone [PDF]
We performed a genetic association study of rare variants and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of UCMA/GRP and OPTN genes, in French-Canadian patients with Paget's disease of bone (PDB) and in healthy controls from the same population.

Down-Regulation of EPAS1 Transcription and Genetic Adaptation of Tibetans to High-Altitude Hypoxia
Tibetans are well adapted to the hypoxic environments at high altitude, yet the molecular mechanism of this adaptation remains elusive. We reported comprehensive genetic and functional analyses of EPAS1, a gene encoding hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF ...

The Fission Yeast Homeodomain Protein Yox1p Binds to MBF and Confines MBF-Dependent Cell-Cycle Transcription to G1-S via Negative Feedback [PDF]
The regulation of the G1- to S-phase transition is critical for cell-cycle progression. This transition is driven by a transient transcriptional wave regulated by transcription factor complexes termed MBF/SBF in yeast and E2F-DP in mammals. Here we apply
