Rox1 function in dosage compensation: structural / functional analysis of a non-coding rna
<p>roX1 is a long non-coding RNA involved in the chromosome-wide gene regulation that occurs during dosage compensation in Drosophila. Dosage compensation in Drosophila melanogaster occurs by a global two-fold increase of transcription from the single male X chromosome. This essential process …

INVESTIGATING GENOME PROTECTION AT G-QUADRUPLEXES: STRUCTURAL-FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OF S. CEREVISIAE DOMESTICATED TRANSPOSASE VID22
L'instabilità del genoma è una caratteristica distintiva dell'invecchiamento e di varie patologie umane, tra cui il cancro. L'instabilità genomica è provocata da agenti esogeni che danneggiano il DNA e da molteplici fattori endogeni, tra cui le G-tetradi, strutture secondarie non canoniche del …
