Evolution of Centromeric Retrotransposons in Grasses
Centromeric retrotransposons (CRs) constitute a family of plant retroelements, some of which have the ability to target their insertion almost exclusively to the functional centromeres. Our exhaustive analysis of CR family members in four grass genomes revealed not only horizontal transfer (HT) of CR elements between the oryzoid and panicoid grass lineages but also their subsequent recombinatio...
متن کاملNovel allergen structures with tandem amino acid repeats derived from German and American cockroach.
Cockroaches produce potent allergens that are an important cause of asthma. The two principal domiciliary cockroach species, Blattella germanica and Periplaneta americana, secrete major allergens, Bla g 1 and Per a 1. Here, we report the molecular cloning of three Bla g 1 cDNA clones, which showed 70% amino acid sequence identity with Per a 1. Plaque immunoassays with human IgE antibodies or mu...
متن کاملStructure and Distribution of Centromeric Retrotransposons at Diploid and Allotetraploid Coffea Centromeric and Pericentromeric Regions
Centromeric regions of plants are generally composed of large array of satellites from a specific lineage of Gypsy LTR-retrotransposons, called Centromeric Retrotransposons. Repeated sequences interact with a specific H3 histone, playing a crucial function on kinetochore formation. To study the structure and composition of centromeric regions in the genus Coffea, we annotated and classified Cen...
متن کاملTRDB—The Tandem Repeats Database
Tandem repeats in DNA have been under intensive study for many years, first, as a consequence of their usefulness as genomic markers and DNA fingerprints and more recently as their role in human disease and regulatory processes has become apparent. The Tandem Repeats Database (TRDB) is a public repository of information on tandem repeats in genomic DNA. It contains a variety of tools for repeat...
