How novel protein functions are acquired is a central question in molecular biology. Key paths to novelty include gene duplications, recombination or horizontal acquisition. Transposable elements (TEs) are increasingly recognized as a major...
Evolutionary dynamics of the LTR-retrotransposon crapaud in the Podospora anserina species complex and the interaction with repeat-induced point mutations [0.03%]
在Podospora anserina物种复合体中crapaudLTR-反转录转座子的进化动态及其与重复诱发点突变的相互作用
Ivar Westerberg,S Lorena Ament-Velásquez,Aaron A Vogan et al.
Ivar Westerberg et al.
Background: The genome of the filamentous ascomycete Podospora anserina shows a relatively high abundance of retrotransposons compared to other interspersed repeats. The LTR-retrotransposon family crapaud is particularly ...

Background: The genomes of many eukaryotes contain DNA repeats in the form of both tandem and interspersed elements with distinct structure, evolutionary histories, and mechanisms of emergence and amplification. Although ...
An intronic LINE-1 regulates IFNAR1 expression in human immune cells [0.03%]
人免疫细胞中的内含子LINE-1通过调控IFNAR1的表达影响机体的天然抗病毒免疫反应
Carmen A Buttler,Daniel Ramirez,Robin D Dowell et al.
Carmen A Buttler et al.
Background: Despite their origins as selfish parasitic sequences, some transposons in the human genome have been co-opted to serve as regulatory elements, contributing to the evolution of transcriptional networks. Most we...

In November 2022 the first Dark Genome Symposium was held in Boston, USA. The meeting was hosted by Rome Therapeutics and Enara Bio, two biotechnology companies working on translating our growing understanding of this vast genetic landscape...
Long noncoding RNAs emerge from transposon-derived antisense sequences and may contribute to infection stage-specific transposon regulation in a fungal phytopathogen [0.03%]
长非编码RNA来源于转座子衍生的反义序列,并可能有助于植物病原真菌中感染阶段特异性的转座子调节
Jiangzhao Qian,Heba M M Ibrahim,Myriam Erz et al.
Jiangzhao Qian et al.
Background: The genome of the obligate biotrophic phytopathogenic barley powdery mildew fungus Blumeria hordei is inflated due to highly abundant and possibly active transposable elements (TEs). In the absence of the othe...
Co-expression of distinct L1 retrotransposon coiled coils can lead to their entanglement [0.03%]
不同L1逆转录转座子的共表达可能导致其缠结

Nikola A Mizgier
L1 (LINE1) non-LTR retrotransposons are ubiquitous genomic parasites and the dominant transposable element in humans having generated about 40% of their genomic DNA during their ~ 100 million years (Myr) of activity in primates. L1 replicat...
Plants acquired mitochondrial linear plasmids horizontally from fungi likely during the conquest of land [0.03%]
