The study of genetic diversity between a crop and its wild relatives may yield fundamental insights into evolutionary history and the process of domestication. In this study, we genotyped a sample of ...
In a paper published today in the peer-reviewed journal Molecules, Alan Herbert from InsideOutBio proposes that evolution can happen on a faster time scale than Darwin imagined. In fact, it happens in ...
There is evidence that tandem repeat sequences (TRS) could have essential roles in cell functioning processes. We aimed to detect and describe minisatellites contained in the sequences of a cDNA ...
Lengthy sequences of DNA -- with their component triplet of nucleotides repeated hundreds, even thousands of times -- are known to be abnormal, causing rare but devastating neurological diseases. But ...
Researchers want to design proteins to make new materials or catalysts or to better understand how natural proteins evolved. Repeat proteins take some of the work out of the process. In such proteins, ...
Tiny repeated stretches of DNA in your genome may quietly shape how your body works, how your brain develops and how you ...
Satellite DNA is mainly present in heterochromatin or the tightly packed regions of chromosomes in centromeres, telomeres, and sometimes even in the euchromatin region (active region of the genome).
