Intron length coevolution across mammalian genomes
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-08-22)Although they do not contribute directly to the proteome, introns frequently contain regulatory elements and can extend the protein coding potential of the genome through alternative splicing. For some genes, the contribution ... -
Rapid unwinding of triplet repeat hairpins by srs2 helicase of saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2008-04-25)Expansions of trinucleotide repeats cause at least 15 heritable human diseases. Single-stranded triplet repeat DNA in vitro forms stable hairpins in a sequence-dependent manner that correlates with expansion risk in vivo. ... -
Viral proteins as a potential driver of histone depletion in dinoflagellates
(Springer Nature, 2018-04-18)Within canonical eukaryotic nuclei, DNA is packaged with highly conserved histone proteins into nucleosomes, which facilitate DNA condensation and contribute to genomic regulation. Yet the dinoflagellates, a group of ...
