متن کاملEvolutionary Genomics of Transposable Elements in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the premier model systems for studying the genomics and evolution of transposable elements. The availability of the S. cerevisiae genome led to unprecedented insights into its five known transposable element families (the LTR retrotransposons Ty1-Ty5) in the years shortly after its completion. However, subsequent advances in bioinformatics tools for analysing ...
متن کاملPopulation genomics of transposable elements in Drosophila.
Studies of the population dynamics of transposable elements (TEs) in Drosophila melanogaster indicate that consistent forces are affecting TEs independently of their modes of transposition and regulation. New sequencing technologies enable biologists to sample genomes at an unprecedented scale in order to quantify genome-wide polymorphism for annotated and novel TE insertions. In this review, w...
متن کاملEvolutionary tinkering with transposable elements.
I t was almost 30 years ago when François Jacob declared that evolutionary innovation (the emergence of novel form and function over time) occurred primarily via a process of ‘‘tinkering’’ (1). By tinkering, Jacob essentially meant the creation of novelty through random combinations of preexisting forms. Two fundamental and countervailing notions are implicit in this view of evolution: optimali...
متن کاملDuplicated genes producing transposable controlling elements for the mating-type differentiation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Mutation of the two homothallic genes, HML alpha/HMLa and HMRa/HMR alpha, in homothallic strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied. Of 11 mutants of the HML alpha gene, eight were due to a phenotypic mutation from HML alpha to HMLa, i.e., a mutation causing a change in function of the original HML allele to that of the other HML allele (functional mutation), and three were due to a defect...
