Decoding Synteny Blocks and Large-Scale Duplications in Mammalian and Plant Genomes
The existing synteny block reconstruction algorithms use anchors (e.g., orthologous genes) shared over all genomes to construct the synteny blocks for multiple genomes. This approach, while efficient for a few genomes, cannot be scaled to address the need to construct synteny blocks in many mammalian genomes that are currently being sequenced. The problem is that the number of anchors shared am...
متن کاملMultiple lateral gene transfers and duplications have promoted plant parasitism ability in nematodes.
Lateral gene transfer from prokaryotes to animals is poorly understood, and the scarce documented examples generally concern genes of uncharacterized role in the receiver organism. In contrast, in plant-parasitic nematodes, several genes, usually not found in animals and similar to bacterial homologs, play essential roles for successful parasitism. Many of these encode plant cell wall-degrading...

متن کاملPredicting the Stability of Homologous Gene Duplications in a Plant RNA Virus
One of the striking features of many eukaryotes is the apparent amount of redundancy in coding and non-coding elements of their genomes. Despite the possible evolutionary advantages, there are fewer examples of redundant sequences in viral genomes, particularly those with RNA genomes. The factors constraining the maintenance of redundant sequences in present-day RNA virus genomes are not well k...
متن کاملVaginal and Uterine Duplications
Demographics The true prevalence of vaginal and uterine duplications is unknown because the anomaly may not manifest until the reproductive years of the individual.2 Although a prevalence of 3.2% in the healthy fertile population has been quoted in one study, another study quoted an incidence of 0.1–0.5%.3, 4 Rackow and associates reported an incidence of 3–4% in fertile and infertile women, 5–...
