چکیده

ANTHROPOLOGY. For the article ‘‘Ancient mitochondrial M haplogroups identified in the Southwest Pacific,’’ by D. Andrew Merriwether, Jason A. Hodgson, Françoise R. Friedlaender, Robin Allaby, Salvatore Cerchio, George Koki, and Jonathan S. Friedlaender, which appeared in issue 37, September 13, 2005, of Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (102, 13034–13039; first published September 6, 2005; 10.1073 pnas.0506195102), the authors note that, in the third, fourth, and fifth lines from the bottom of Table 3, haplogroup M12 should read M42. The corrected table appears below. In addition, on page 13036, left column, line 7 of the second paragraph, ‘‘M28a’’ should read ‘‘M27a.’’ These errors do not alter the conclusions of the article.

The roles of RFamide-related peptides (RFRPs), mammalian gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) orthologues in female reproduction

Objective(s): To benefit from reproduction and deal with challenges in the environmental conditions, animals must adapt internal physiology to maximize the reproduction rate. Maladaptive variations in the neurochemical systems and reproductive system can lead to manifestation of several significant mammalian reprocesses, including mammalian ovarian lifespan. RFamide-related peptide (RFRP, Rfrp)...

Transposable element recruitments in the mammalian placenta: impacts and mechanisms.

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA elements found at high frequency in mammalian genomes. Although these elements are generally perceived as genomic parasites, they have the potential to influence host genome function in many beneficial ways. This article discusses the role TEs have played in the evolution of the placenta and pregnancy in viviparous mammals. Using examples from our own ...

Unraveling genetic regulatory networks of mammalian retroelements

Advances in the science of toxicogenomics have opened the door to major advances in our understanding of the molecular basis of environmental pathogenesis and the role of environmental factors in human disease. This report summarizes major findings in the laboratory defining the molecular basis of L1 retroelement activation in mammalian cells and the architecture of gene regulatory networks inv...

Global profiling of DNA methylation erasure in mouse primordial germ cells.

Epigenetic reprogramming, characterized by loss of cytosine methylation and histone modifications, occurs during mammalian development in primordial germ cells (PGCs), yet the targets and kinetics of this process are poorly characterized. Here we provide a map of cytosine methylation on a large portion of the genome in developing male and female PGCs isolated from mouse embryos. We show that DN...

AID can restrict L1 retrotransposition suggesting a dual role in innate and adaptive immunity

Retrotransposons make up over 40% of the mammalian genome. Some copies are still capable of mobilizing and new insertions promote genetic variation. Several members of the APOBEC3 family of DNA cytosine deaminases function to limit the replication of a variety of retroelements, such as the long-terminal repeat (LTR)-containing MusD and Ty1 elements, and that of the non-LTR retrotransposons, L1 ...
