Meeting our Makers:Uncovering the cis-regulatory activity of transposable elements using statistical learning

The adaptation of organisms to their environment depends on the innovative potential inherent to genetic variation. In complex organisms such as mammals, processes like development and immunity require tight gene regulation. Complex forms emerge more often ...

Wide-scale identification of novel/eliminated genes responsible for evolutionary transformations

Daria Korotkova

BackgroundIt is generally accepted that most evolutionary transformations at the phenotype level are associated either with rearrangements of genomic regulatory elements, which control the activity of gene networks, or with changes in the amino acid conten ...

Unexpected post‐glacial colonisation route explains the white colour of barn owls ( Tyto alba ) from the British Isles

Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Christian Iseli

The climate fluctuations of the Quaternary shaped the movement of species in and out of glacial refugia. In Europe, the majority of species followed one of the described traditional postglacial recolonization routes from the southern peninsulas towards the ...

Genetic signatures of divergent selection in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) are associated with the variation in temperature and precipitation across its distribution range

Elia Vajana

High genetic variation and extensive gene flow may help forest trees with adapting to ongoing climate change, yet the genetic bases underlying their adaptive potential remain largely unknown. We investigated range-wide patterns of potentially adaptive gene ...

Confounding factors from inducible systems for spatiotemporal gene expression regulation

Johan Auwerx, Richardus Houtkooper

Spatiotemporally regulated targeted gene manipulation is a common way to study the effect of gene variants on phenotypic traits, but the Cre/loxP and Tet-On/Tet-Off systems can affect whole-organism physiology and function due to off-target effects. We hig ...

Evaluating Alternative Metacommunity Hypotheses for Diatoms in the McMurdo Dry Valleys Using Simulations and Remote Sensing Data

Tyler Joe Kohler

Diatoms are diverse and widespread freshwater Eukaryotes that make excellent microbial subjects for addressing questions in metacommunity ecology. In the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, the simple trophic structure of glacier-fed streams provides an ide ...

Allele-specific gene editing prevents deafness in a model of dominant progressive hearing loss

Bernard Schneider, Paola Andrea Solanes Vega, Sofia Carmen Suzanne Spataro

Since most dominant human mutations are single nucleotide substitutions(1,2), we explored gene editing strategies to disrupt dominant mutations efficiently and selectively without affecting wild-type alleles. However, single nucleotide discrimination can b ...

Identifying gene function and module connections by the integration of multispecies expression compendia

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Stephan Morgenthaler, Hao Li, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Elena Katsyuba, Wen Gao, Daria Rukina, Qingyao Huang, Yang Li, Changmyung Oh, Andrea Komljenovic

The functions of many eukaryotic genes are still poorly understood. Here, we developed and validated a new method, termed GeneBridge, which is based on two linked approaches to impute gene function and bridge genes with biological processes. First, Gene-Mo ...

Similarities and differences in the regulation of HoxD genes during chick and mouse limb development

Denis Duboule, Lucille Delisle, Guillaume Andrey, Leonardo Beccari, Christopher Chase Bolt, Nayuta Yakushiji

In all tetrapods examined thus far, the development and patterning of limbs require the activation of gene members of the HoxD cluster. In mammals, they are regulated by a complex bimodal process that controls first the proximal patterning and then the dis ...

Multiscale landscape genomic models to detect signatures of selection in the alpine plant Biscutella laevigata

Stéphane Joost, Kevin Leempoel

Plant species are known to adapt locally to their environment, particularly in mountainous areas where conditions can vary drastically over short distances. The climate of such landscapes being largely influenced by topography, using fine-scale models to e ...
