Molecular archeology of an SP100 splice variant revisited: dating the retrotranscription and Alu insertion eventsE J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, Iowa 52241, USA
Genome Biol 2:RESEARCH0040. 2001..PCR amplification of the 3' end of the SP100 gene using genomic DNAs from human and New World and Old World monkey species, followed by direct sequencing of the amplicons has made dating the HMG1L3 and Alu insertion events possible...
Molecular and temporal characteristics of human retropseudogenesEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
Hum Biol 75:661-72. 2003..This temporal pattern suggests that the processes forging genome evolution are most active during periods of speciation and adaptive radiation and then steadily diminish until the next burst of activity...
Small RNA regulation of ovule development in the cotton plant, G. hirsutum LIbrokhim Y Abdurakhmonov
Center of Genomic Technologies, Institute of Genetics and Plant Experimental Biology, Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan, Yuqori Yuz, Qibray Region Tashkent District, 111226 Uzbekistan
BMC Plant Biol 8:93. 2008..The objective of this work was to directly clone, annotate, and analyze small RNAs of developing ovules to reveal the candidate small interfering RNA/microRNAs involved in cotton ovule and fiber development...
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase pseudogene, SHMT-ps1: a unique genetic marker of the order primatesE J Devor
Integrated DNA Technologies, Inc, Coralville, Iowa 52241, USA
J Exp Zool 282:150-6. 1998..These unique features make the SHMT-ps1 locus a useful marker in molecular studies of the primates...
PiRNA-like RNAs in the marsupial Monodelphis domestica identify transcription clusters and likely marsupial transposon targetsEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Biophysics, Integrated DNA Technologies, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
Mamm Genome 19:581-6. 2008....
In vitro and in silico annotation of conserved and nonconserved microRNAs in the genome of the marsupial Monodelphis domesticaEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
J Hered 99:66-72. 2008..Nine of these 13 are also found in the wallaby (Macropus eugenii) genome. Two of the candidate miRNA clones, located on the X chromosome, are part of a cluster containing a total of 24 potential miRNAs spanning more than 100 kb...
Primate microRNAs miR-220 and miR-492 lie within processed pseudogenesEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
J Hered 97:186-90. 2006..Thus it appears that, while processed pseudogenes are good candidates for miRNA incubators, it is unlikely that more than a very small percentage of new miRNAs arise this way...
An ancient RNase H1 splice junction mutant preserved in a 19-million-year-old genetic fossil in ape genomesE J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
J Hered 95:257-61. 2004..At the present time, the genetic fossil is the only evidence that the mutation ever occurred, and thus represents an archival marker of an ancient genetic event in primate evolution...
Use of molecular beacons to verify that the serine hydroxymethyltransferase pseudogene SHMT-ps1 is unique to the order PrimatesE J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, Inc, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
Genome Biol 2:RESEARCH0006. 2001..Here, 'molecular beacon' probes specific to SHMT-ps1 were used in an attempt to verify this suggestion...
Serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) polymorphisms and compulsive buyingE J Devor
Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, Iowa 52241, USA
Am J Med Genet 88:123-5. 1999..We also typed a panel of 38 psychiatrically normal controls for both 5-HH markers. When compared to this control panel, no significant differences were seen for either 5-HTT marker among the compulsive buyers...
Use of high specific activity StarFire oligonucleotide probes to visualize low-abundance pre-mRNA splicing intermediates in S. pombeM A Behlke
Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA, USA
Biotechniques 29:892-7. 2000..Kinase-labeled tf2d probe detected only unspliced RNA, while the same oligonucleotide labeled using the new method detected both unspliced tf2d RNA and rare pre-mRNA splicing intermediates...
Marsupial-specific microRNAs evolved from marsupial-specific transposable elementsEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
Gene 448:187-91. 2009..These findings reinforce the view that transposable elements are a previously unappreciated source of new, lineage-specific microRNAs...
LOC 390443 (RNase 9) on chromosome 14q11.2 is related to the RNase A superfamily and contains a unique amino-terminal preproteinlike sequenceEric J Devor
Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics, Integrated DNA Technologies, 1710 Commercial Park, Coralville, IA 52241, USA
Hum Biol 76:921-35. 2004..The features of RNase 9 described here suggest that it, too, may be involved in host defense and that it, along with the rest of the superfamily, may prove to have played an important role in anthropoid evolution...
Modulation of ligand selectivity associated with activation of the transmembrane region of the human follitropin receptorLucia Montanelli
IRIBHM, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Campus Erasme, Route de Lennik 808, B 1070 Brussels
Mol Endocrinol 18:2061-73. 2004..In the hFSHr, specificity would be exerted both by the ectodomain and the serpentine portion...
Genetic structure of the Aleuts and Circumpolar populations based on mitochondrial DNA sequences: a synthesisMark Zlojutro
