HMGA1 pseudogenes as candidate proto-oncogenic competitive endogenous RNAs
The High Mobility Group A (HMGA) are nuclear proteins that participate in the organization of nucleoprotein complexes involved in chromatin structure, replication and gene transcription. HMGA overexpression is a feature of human cancer and plays a causal role in cell transformation. Since non-coding RNAs and pseudogenes are now recognized to be important in physiology and disease, we investigat...
متن کاملAutosomal STRs Provide Genetic Evidence for the Hypothesis That Tai People Originate from Southern China
Tai people are widely distributed in Thailand, Laos and southwestern China and are a large population of Southeast Asia. Although most anthropologists and historians agree that modern Tai people are from southwestern China and northern Thailand, the place from which they historically migrated remains controversial. Three popular hypotheses have been proposed: northern origin hypothesis, souther...
متن کاملendogenous tariff hypothesis: a case of iran
according to endogenous tariff hypothesis, tariff is endogenously determined by the set of political economy factors. using the co- integrated var approach and in the framework of the hypothesis, the present study examined the determinants of tariff protection in iran over the period 1971-2010. based on the results, though no evidence has been obtained about the impact of unemployment and impor...
متن کاملEvolutionary Evidence for Alternative Structure in RNA Sequence Co-variation
Sequence conservation and co-variation of base pairs are hallmarks of structured RNAs. For certain RNAs (e.g. riboswitches), a single sequence must adopt at least two alternative secondary structures to effectively regulate the message. If alternative secondary structures are important to the function of an RNA, we expect to observe evolutionary co-variation supporting multiple conformations. W...
متن کاملAn Evolutionary Theory for the Variability Hypothesis
A selectivity theory is proposed to help explain how one gender of a species might tend to evolve with greater variability than the other gender. Briefly, the theory says that if one sex is relatively selective, then more variable subpopulations of the opposite sex will tend to prevail over those with lesser variability; and conversely, if one sex is relatively non-selective, then less variable...
