Cell Timer/Cell Clock
Like the biological clock in the body, replication of each cell type (even different cells of the same organism) follows a timing program. Abnormal function of this timer could be an alarm for a disease like cancer. DNA replication starts from a specific point on the chromosome that is called the origin of replication. In contrast to prokaryotes in which DNA replication starts from a single ...
متن کاملCOPS: A Sensitive and Accurate Tool for Detecting Somatic Copy Number Alterations Using Short-Read Sequence Data from Paired Samples
Copy Number Alterations (CNAs) such as deletions and duplications; compose a larger percentage of genetic variations than single nucleotide polymorphisms or other structural variations in cancer genomes that undergo major chromosomal re-arrangements. It is, therefore, imperative to identify cancer-specific somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs), with respect to matched normal tissue, in order ...
متن کاملReplication-timing boundaries facilitate cell-type and species-specific regulation of a rearranged human chromosome in mouse.
In multicellular organisms, developmental changes to replication timing occur in 400-800 kb domains across half the genome. While examples of epigenetic control of replication timing have been described, a role for DNA sequence in mammalian replication-timing regulation has not been substantiated. To assess the role of DNA sequences in directing developmental changes to replication timing, we p...
متن کاملRif1 Regulates Initiation Timing of Late Replication Origins throughout the S. cerevisiae Genome
Chromosomal DNA replication involves the coordinated activity of hundreds to thousands of replication origins. Individual replication origins are subject to epigenetic regulation of their activity during S-phase, resulting in differential efficiencies and timings of replication initiation during S-phase. This regulation is thought to involve chromatin structure and organization into timing doma...
متن کاملEvaluation of subjective sleep quality in hemodialysis patients and its association with hemodialysis timing
Background and Purpose: Sleep disorders are a common problem in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Poor sleep quality is considered as a potential predictor for mortality and reduced quality of life in these patients. This study aimed to evaluate subjective sleep quality in hemodialysis patients and its association with hemodialysis timing. Methods: This descriptive-correlational study was co...
