Evolution of large palindromes on the primate X chromosome
… complex genomic architecture, including massive palindromes with arms that can exceed 1 Mb in length and arm-to-arm sequence identity higher than 99%. Palindrome arms harbor protein-coding genes with testis-biased expression, suggesting roles in male fertility. However, palindromes are …

Palindromes on the human X chromosome : testis-biased transcription, gene conversion and evolution
… Y chromosome revealed massive, testis-specific palindromes that span 30% of the chromosome and are subject to gene conversion. We conducted studies to determine whether similar palindromes exist on the human X chromosome and, if they exist, to what degree they share the features of the Y …

Diverse outcomes of homologous recombination in the human Y chromosome
… First, I show that massive MSY-specific palindromes, which maintain arm-to-arm sequence identity via gene conversion, are also the targets of crossing over. Crossover events in palindromes can lead to isochromosome formation and diverse reproductive disorders including sex reversal, male …

Biloba for chamber ensemble
… mathematical models, mainly systems based on palindromes and the Fibonacci series. Palindromes can manifest themselves in multifarious way, from the number of beats in a group of measures in a phrase to the unfolding of pitches in a musical gesture. One instance of the usage of the Fibonacci …

Mechanisms of Palindrome-Mediated Chromosomal Instability
Palindromes are highly unstable DNA sequences that induce chromosomal rearrangements and underlie cancer and hereditary diseases such as Emanuel Syndrome. Despite being a significant source of genomic instability, the mechanisms governing palindrome fragility in eukaryotic cells are not fully …

Characterization of structure, function and regulation of the speB gene in Escherichia coli
… of two imperfect repeats containing four palindromes, three of which were overlapping. ORF3 represented the coding sequence of the speB gene. Two transcripts were detected from the speB gene: a shorter transcript, initiated 101 bp upstream from ORF3, and a polycistronic message, coding for …

Iterates of functions defined in terms of digital representations of the integers
For a fixed base, John H. Conway’s RATS sequences are generated by iterating the following procedure on an initial integer: Reverse the digits of the integer, Add the reversal to the original, Then Sort the resulting digits in increasing order. For example, 334+433=767, which gets sorted into 677. …
