Maintaining genome integrity.
Introduction Genomes have always been vulnerable to damage from intraand extracellular sources such as oxidative species generated by cell metabolism, spontaneous base loss or modification, radiation and chemicals (Friedberg et al, 2005a). As a result, mechanisms to cope with DNA damage developed early in evolution and have been conserved. Organisms need some genome stability, but must allow mu...
متن کاملMitoSuite: a graphical tool for human mitochondrial genome profiling in massive parallel sequencing
Recent rapid advances in high-throughput, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have promoted mitochondrial genome studies in the fields of human evolution, medical genetics, and forensic casework. However, scientists unfamiliar with computer programming often find it difficult to handle the massive volumes of data that are generated by NGS. To address this limitation, we developed Mito...
متن کاملMaintaining ancient organelles: mitochondrial biogenesis and maturation.
The ultrastructure of the cardiac myocyte is remarkable for the high density of mitochondria tightly packed between sarcomeres. This structural organization is designed to provide energy in the form of ATP to fuel normal pump function of the heart. A complex system comprised of regulatory factors and energy metabolic machinery, encoded by both mitochondrial and nuclear genomes, is required for ...
متن کاملSAMHD1 prevents autoimmunity by maintaining genome stability
OBJECTIVES The HIV restriction factor, SAMHD1 (SAM domain and HD domain-containing protein 1), is a triphosphohydrolase that degrades deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs). Mutations in SAMHD1 cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS), an inflammatory disorder that shares phenotypic similarity with systemic lupus erythematosus, including activation of antiviral type 1 interferon (IFN). To furt...
متن کاملAppraisal of the entire mitochondrial genome for DNA barcoding in birds
DNA barcoding based on a standardized region of 648 base pairs of mitochondrial DNAsequences from Cytochrome C Oxidase 1 (COX1) is proposed for animal species identification.Recent studies suggested that DNA barcoding has been effective for identifying 94% of birdspecies. The proposed threshold of 10 times the average intraspecific variation could be used forthe identification and delimitation ...
