Genomic targets and molecular partners of the chromatin regulator KAP1

Annamaria Kauzlaric

KAP1 is an enigmatic regulatory protein, first described some twenty years ago, shown to be involved in multiple and diverse cellular functions. Specifically, it mediates tasks critical to cell growth and differentiation, pluripotency, apoptosis, gene sile ...

Comparative genomics of the genus Desulfitobacterium

Julien Maillard, Hauke Smidt

The Desulfitobacterium genus comprises anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria, of which the majority are facultative organohalide respirers. We here present the genomes of eight strains of Desulfitobacterium spp., including five strains of Desulfitobacterium haf ...

Guidelines for Genome-Scale Analysis of Biological Rhythms

Felix Naef, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Alaaddin Bulak Arpat, Han Wang, Zheng Chen, Xiaodong Li

Genome biology approaches have made enormous contributions to our understanding of biological rhythms, particularly in identifying outputs of the clock, including RNAs, proteins, and metabolites, whose abundance oscillates throughout the day. These methods ...

GOLPH3 and oncogenesis: What is the molecular link?

Riccardo Rizzo

The Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) is encoded by a gene that is located in a region of the human genome that is often amplified in different solid tumours. GOLPH3, an evolutionary conserved phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) binding protein, is mainl ...

Insight into the evolution and origin of leprosy bacilli from the genome sequence of Mycobacterium lepromatosis

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso, Pushpendra Singh

Mycobacterium lepromatosis is an uncultured human pathogen associated with diffuse lepromatous leprosy and a reactional state known as Lucio's phenomenon. By using deep sequencing with and without DNA enrichment, we obtained the near-complete genome sequen ...

The materials genome in action: identifying the performance limits for methane storage

Berend Smit, Cory Matthew Simon, Rocio Mercado

Analogous to the way the Human Genome Project advanced an array of biological sciences by mapping the human genome, the Materials Genome Initiative aims to enhance our understanding of the fundamentals of materials science by providing the information we n ...
