Control of growth and gut maturation by &ITHoxD&IT genes and the associated lncRNA &ITHaglr&IT

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany, Fabrice Daniel Darbellay, Anamaria Necsulea

During embryonic development, Hox genes participate in the building of a functional digestive system in metazoans, and genetic conditions involving these genes lead to important, sometimes lethal,growth retardation. Recently, this phenotype was obtained af ...

Familial segregation of group B streptococcal infection in a consanguineous kindred

Jacques Fellay, Alessandro Borghesi

Two cases of neonatal group B streptococcal (GBS) infection occurring in a large consanguineous kindred are described. The observation suggests that susceptibility to isolated GBS disease in this family may have been the result of an inborn error of immuni ...

Mutations in the polyglutamylase geneTTLL5, expressed in photoreceptor cells and spermatozoa, are associated with cone-rod degeneration and reduced male fertility

Hereditary retinal degenerations encompass a group of genetic diseases characterized by extreme clinical variability. Following next-generation sequencing and autozygome-based screening of patients presenting with a peculiar, recessive form of cone-dominat ...

Multi locus genotypic data reveal high genetic diversity and low genetic structure of Iranian sheep

Stéphane Joost

Iranian livestock diversity is still largely unexplored, in spite of the interest in the populations historically reared in this country located near the Fertile Crescent, a major livestock domestication centre. In this investigation, the genetic diversity ...

Can multi-generational exposure to ocean warming and acidification lead to the adaptation of life-history and physiology in a marine metazoan?

Emma Mary Gibbin, Félix Christen

Ocean warming and acidification are concomitant global drivers that are currently threatening the survival of marine organisms. How species will respond to these changes depends on their capacity for plastic and adaptive responses. Little is known about th ...

Ecological strategies in stable and disturbed environments depend on species specialisation

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Ecological strategies are integral to understanding species survival in different environments. However, how habitat specialisation is involved in such strategies is not fully understood, particularly in heterogeneous and disturbed environments. Here, we s ...

Hotair Is Dispensible for Mouse Development

Denis Duboule, Anamaria Necsulea

Despite the crucial importance of Hox genes functions during animal development, the mechanisms that control their transcription in time and space are not yet fully understood. In this context, it was proposed that Hotair, a lncRNA transcribed from within ...

On the (un) predictability of a large intragenic fitness landscape

Jeffrey David Jensen, Claudia Bank, Sebastian Matuszewski

The study of fitness landscapes, which aims at mapping genotypes to fitness, is receiving ever-increasing attention. Novel experimental approaches combined with next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods enable accurate and extensive studies of the fitness e ...

Identifying mutations in Tunisian families with retinal dystrophy

Imen Habibi

Retinal dystrophies (RD) are a rare genetic disorder with high genetic heterogeneity. This study aimed at identifying disease-causing variants in fifteen consanguineous Tunisian families. Full ophthalmic examination was performed. Index patients were subje ...

Distinguishing knowledge integration gains in evolution education through concept map network analysis

Beat Adrian Schwendimann

Understanding how evolutionary changes happen requires connecting genotype and phenotype level concepts. This study uses a form of concept map, called Knowledge Integration Map (KIM), as a learning and assessment tool to support and assess connecting conce ...
