Conserved Gene Order and Expanded Inverted Repeats Characterize Plastid Genomes of Thalassiosirales
Diatoms are mostly photosynthetic eukaryotes within the heterokont lineage. Variable plastid genome sizes and extensive genome rearrangements have been observed across the diatom phylogeny, but little is known about plastid genome evolution within order- or family-level clades. The Thalassiosirales is one of the more comprehensively studied orders in terms of both genetics and morphology. Seven...
متن کاملInverted Repeats in Viral Genomes
We investigate 738 complete genomes of viruses to detect the presence of short inverted repeats. The number of inverted repeats found is compared with the prediction obtained for a Bernoullian and for a Markovian control model. We find as a statistical regularity that the number of observed inverted repeats is often greater than the one expected in terms of a Bernoullian or Markovian model in s...
متن کاملDNA inverted repeats and human disease.
Inverted repeats are important elements in the human genome. Because of their nature, inverted repeats can engage in intra- and intermolecular basepairing. The ability to adopt hairpin and cruciform secondary structures is associated with frameshift mutations. These sequences also can be utilized by the polymerase allowing both intra- and interstrand switching events. Such mechanisms can involv...
متن کاملDNA rearrangement mediated by inverted repeats.
Inverted repeats of DNA are widespread in the genomes of eukaryotes and prokaryotes and can mediate genome rearrangement. We studied rearrangement mediated by plasmid-borne inverted repeats in Escherichia coli. We show that inverted repeats can mediate an efficient and recA-independent recombination event. Surprisingly, the product of this recombination is not that of simple inversion between t...
متن کاملFast cloning inverted repeats for RNA interference.
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can induce post-transcriptional gene silencing in a wide variety of organisms. Commonly, inverted repeats are used to produce dsRNA to silence genes of interest. However, cloning inverted repeats still remains a rate-limiting step for widely applying this technique. Here we describe a pGEM-T-based vector, pGEM-WIZ, designed to produce inverted repeats for any Drosoph...
