Functional indications for transposase domestications – Characterization of the human piggyBac transposase derived (PGBD) activities [PDF]

open access: yesGene, 2022
Transposable elements are widespread in all living organisms. In addition to self-reproduction, they are a major source of genetic variation that drives genome evolution but our knowledge of the functions of human genes derived from transposases is limited.

Bacterial transposases and retroviral integrases [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1995
SummaryTransposable genetic elements have adopted two major strategies for their displacement from one site to another within and between genomes. One involves passage through an RNA intermediate prior to synthesis of a DNA copy while the other is limited uniquely to DNA intermediates.

Tn5 Transposase Applied in Genomics Research [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The development of high-throughput sequencing (next-generation sequencing technology (NGS)) and the continuous increase in experimental throughput require the upstream sample processing steps of NGS to be as simple as possible to improve the efficiency of the entire NGS process.

Tn 5 Transposase Active Site Mutants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
Tn5 transposase (Tnp) is a 53.3-kDa protein that is encoded by and facilitates movement of transposon Tn5. Tnp monomers contain a single active site that is responsible for catalyzing a series of four DNA breaking/joining reactions at one transposon end.

Escherichia coli EHEC Germany outbreak preliminary functional annotation using BG7 system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We have annotated the European outbreak E. coli EHEC genome sequenced by BGI (6-2-2011) and assembled with MIRA by Nick Loman (6-2-2011 ). Our system BG7, Bacterial Genome annotation of Era7 Bioinformatics, predicts ORFs and annotates them based on ...

Optimization of the piggyBac transposon using mRNA and insulators: toward a more reliable gene delivery system. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Integrating and expressing stably a transgene into the cellular genome remain major challenges for gene-based therapies and for bioproduction purposes.

Open-source genomic analysis of Shiga-toxin–producing E. coli O104:H4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An outbreak caused by Shiga-toxin–producing Escherichia coli O104:H4 occurred in Germany in May and June of 2011, with more than 3000 persons infected. Here, we report a cluster of cases associated with a single family and describe an open-source genomic

Characterisation of the luciferase gene and the 5' upstream region in the European glow-worm Lampyris noctiluca (Coleoptera: Lampyridae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2005
Beetle luciferase, a mono-oxygenase within the AMP-binding superfamily, is synthesized by bioluminescent beetles in concentrated levels within specialised cells clustering in the abdominal light organs.

Chimeric piggyBac transposases for genomic targeting in human cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Integrating vectors such as viruses and transposons insert transgenes semi-randomly and can potentially disrupt or deregulate genes. For these techniques to be of therapeutic value, a method for controlling the precise location of insertion is required ...

Cytosine Methylation Within Marine Sediment Microbial Communities: Potential Epigenetic Adaptation to the Environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Marine sediments harbor a vast amount of Earth’s microbial biomass, yet little is understood regarding how cells subsist in this low-energy, presumably slow-growth environment.
