Potential Direct Regulators of the Drosophila yellow Gene Identified by Yeast One-Hybrid and RNAi Screens

Bart Deplancke

The regulation of gene expression controls development, and changes in this regulation often contribute to phenotypic evolution. Drosophila pigmentation is a model system for studying evolutionary changes in gene regulation, with differences in expression ...

Integrating Gene Synthesis and MITOMI for Rapid Protein Engineering

Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The research described within this thesis is primarily motivated by two fields of science with reversed, yet complementary, approaches to addressing the same essential objective: manipulating and understanding the complex program of life. Whereas synthetic ...

Integrating gene synthesis and microfluidic protein analysis for rapid protein engineering

Sebastian Maerkl, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Ekaterina Emilova Petrova, Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The capability to rapidly design proteins with novel functions will have a significant impact on medicine, biotechnology and synthetic biology. Synthetic genes are becoming a commodity, but integrated approaches have yet to be developed that take full adva ...

Genome-Wide Ultrabithorax Binding Analysis Reveals Highly Targeted Genomic Loci at Developmental Regulators and a Potential Connection to Polycomb-Mediated Regulation

Antonio Carlos Alves Meireles Filho

Hox homeodomain transcription factors are key regulators of animal development. They specify the identity of segments along the anterior-posterior body axis in metazoans by controlling the expression of diverse downstream targets, including transcription f ...

Quantification of Cooperativity in Heterodimer-DNA Binding Improves the Accuracy of Binding Specificity Models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Bart Deplancke, Alina Isakova, Yves Berset

Many transcription factors (TFs) have the ability to cooperate on DNA elements as heterodimers. Despite the significance of TF heterodimerization for gene regulation, a quantitative understanding of cooperativity between various TF dimer partners and its i ...

A Fast and Exact Algorithm for the Exemplar Breakpoint Distance

Bernard Moret, Mingfu Shao

A fundamental problem in comparative genomics is to compute the distance between two genomes. For two genomes without duplicate genes, we can easily compute a variety of distance measures in linear time, but the problem is NP-hard under most models when ge ...

Olfactory receptor pseudo-pseudogenes

Matteo Dal Peraro, Benoîte Bargeton

Pseudogenes are generally considered to be non-functional DNA sequences that arise through nonsense or frame-shift mutations of protein-coding genes(1). Although certain pseudogene-derived RNAs have regulatory roles(2), and some pseudogene fragments are tr ...

Gene Network Polymorphism Illuminates Loss and Retention of Novel RNAi Silencing Components in the Cryptococcus Pathogenic Species Complex

Marianna Feretzaki

RNAi is a ubiquitous pathway that serves central functions throughout eukaryotes, including maintenance of genome stability and repression of transposon expression and movement. However, a number of organisms have lost their RNAi pathways, including the mo ...

Understanding the metabolism of tetrachloroethene-respiring Dehalobacter restrictus

Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli

Tetra- and trichloroethene (PCE, TCE) are organohalides polluting the environment as a result of inappropriate use, storage, and disposal by various industries. Anthropogenic pollution by organohalides is a major source of concern because of their undesira ...

Structure of silent transcription intervals and noise characteristics of mammalian genes

Felix Naef, Benjamin Zoller, Damien Lionel Nicolas

Mammalian transcription occurs stochastically in short bursts interspersed by silent intervals showing a refractory period. However, the underlying processes and consequences on fluctuations in gene products are poorly understood. Here, we use single allel ...
