Towards a more accurate annotation of tyrosine-based site-specific recombinases in bacterial genomes [PDF]
Abstract Background Tyrosine-based site-specific recombinases (TBSSRs) are DNA breaking-rejoining enzymes. In bacterial genomes, they play a major role in the comings and goings of mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as temperate phage genomes, integrated conjugative elements (ICEs) or integron cassettes.

Integrase-associated niche differentiation of endogenous large DNA viruses in crustaceans
Crustacean genomes harbor sequences originating from nimaviruses, a family of large double-stranded DNA viruses infecting crustaceans. In this study, we recovered metagenome-assembled genomes of 27 endogenous nimaviruses from crustacean genome data ...

Site-specific recombination is a DNA breaking and reconstructing process that plays important roles in various cellular pathways for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. This process requires a site-specific recombinase and direct or inverted repeats.

Helicobacter Pylori's plasticity zones are novel transposable elements. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Genes present in only certain strains of a bacterial species can strongly affect cellular phenotypes and evolutionary potentials. One segment that seemed particularly rich in strain-specific genes was found by comparing the first two sequenced

Abstract Tyrosine-type site-specific recombinases (Y-SSRs) are versatile tools for genome engineering due to their ability to mediate excision, integration, inversion and exchange of genomic DNA with single nucleotide precision. The ever-increasing need for sophisticated genome engineering is driving efforts to identify novel SSR systems

This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

The role of tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 in spermatogonial differentiation and spermatocyte meiosis
The transition from spermatogonia to spermatocytes and the initiation of meiosis are key steps in spermatogenesis and are precisely regulated by a plethora of proteins. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains largely unknown.
