Abstract:
Abstract Variation in the DNA sequence and level of alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh) gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster have been studied to determine what types of DNA polymorphisms contribute to phenotypic variation in natural populations. The Adh gene, like many others, shows a high level of variability in both DNA sequence and quantitative level of expression. A number of transposable element insertions occur in the Adh region and one of these, a copia insertion in the 5' flanking region, is associated with unusually low Adh expression. To determine whether this insertion (called R142)

Abstract 1103 Poster Board I-125 Our genomes are replete with mobile DNAs, many of which are retrotransposons that have accumulated over time by “copy-and-paste” mechanisms involving reverse transcription of RNA intermediates. Subsets of human transposable elements have been recently active or remain active today, resulting in many insertional polymorphisms in modern populations. In vitro studies in human tumor cell lines have unequivocally shown that expressed retrotransposons can generate new insertions and potentiate large scale genomic rearrangements.

Abstract:
A cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna is proposed as a radiator for an active integrated antenna. Harmonic tuning, which is the key step in designing active antenna radiators, is achieved via a combination of shape factor control over the resonator and insertion of reactive elements in the feed system. Numerical simulations are carried out in a finite elements framework and a layout for the complete antenna is proposed, aimed at compactness for subsequent utilization of the radiator as an element in an active array for satellite communications.

Abstract:
Mariner-like elements (MLE) are a super-family of DNA transposons widespread in animal and plant genomes. Based on their transposition characteristics, such as random insertions and high-frequency heterogeneous transpositions, several MLEs have been developed to be used as tools in gene tagging and gene therapy. Two active MLEs, Ppmar1 and Ppmar2, have previously been identified in moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis). Both of these have a preferential insertion affinity to AT-rich region and their insertion sites are close to random in the host genome. In Ppmar2 element, we studied the affiniti

At 6.8 mm, the chondrocranium is partially divided, the first elements of the osteocranium are present and most of the muscles are of the general type encountered in Teleosts and all have their proximal and distal insertions. Movements are then generally synchronyzed and can ensure ventilation of the gill arches. Exogeneous

ABSTRACT We describe the first functional insertion sequence (IS) element in Lactobacillus plantarum. ISLpl1, an IS30-related element, was found on the pLp3 plasmid in strain FB335. By selection of spontaneous mutants able to grow in the presence of uracil, it was demonstrated that the IS had transposed into the uracil phosphoribosyltransferase-encoding gene upp on the FB335 chromosome. The plasmid-carried IS element was also sequenced, and a second potential IS element was found: ISLpl2, an IS150-related element adjacent to ISLpl1.

Abstract:
Retrotransposons (RTs) are major components of most eukaryotic genomes. They are ubiquitous, dispersed throughout the genome, and their abundance correlates with genome size. Their copy-and-paste lifestyle in the genome consists of three molecular steps involving transcription of an RNA copy from the genomic RT, followed by reverse transcription to generate cDNA, and finally, reintegration into a new location in the genome. This process leads to new genomic insertions without excision of the original element. The target sites of insertions are relatively random and independent for different ta

SUMMARY Insertion sequences (ISs) constitute an important component of most bacterial genomes. Over 500 individual ISs have been described in the literature to date, and many more are being discovered in the ongoing prokaryotic and eukaryotic genome-sequencing projects. The last 10 years have also seen some striking advances in our understanding of the transposition process itself. Not least of these has been the development of various in vitro transposition systems for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic elements and, for several of these, a detailed understanding of the transposition process at

This paper’s argument is that in the case of Ibero-America, the literary or cultural insertion of elements from other places is not only or predominantly determined by the meaning that the element had in its supposed place of origin, but, rather, by the specific context where this element is subsequently placed. It is the study of this context that can generate better explanations not only about the reasons for this (and not another) element having been ‘imported’ but also about the meaning that it will have in the new context, in connection with the other elements that are also present there.

Advances in DNA sequencing technologies have produced an ever increasing number of sequenced genomes. However, many of the genes identified in these sequencing efforts have unknown functions or functions inferred based upon sequence homology, highlighting the necessity for functional gene analysis. Mutagenesis combined with phenotypic analyses remains a key mechanism for identifying and establishing gene function. Activation tagging is a mutagenic process that uses altered gene expression, usually gene overexpression, to generate mutant phenotypes. We have developed an activation tagging syste

Abstract The abundance, diversity, and genomic distribution of repetitive elements is highly variable among species. These patterns are thought to be driven in part by reproductive mode and the interaction of selection and recombination, and recombination rates typically vary by chromosomal position. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, repetitive elements are enriched at chromosome arms and depleted on centers, and this mirrors the chromosomal distributions of other genomic features such as recombination rate.

In an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor, an adhesive such as bond is generally injected into the magnet tolerance to prevent vibration of the permanent magnet within the insertion space. In this case, a disadvantage is that the magnet tolerance does not contribute to the performance. In this paper, ferrofluid is inserted to improve the torque density, utilizing the magnet tolerance. When inserting ferrofluid into the magnet tolerance, it is important to fix the magnet because conventional adhesives are not used, and it is important that the ferrofluid does not act as a leakage path w

The V(D)J recombinase catalyzes DNA transposition and translocation both in vitro and in vivo. Because lymphoid malignancies contain chromosomal translocations involving antigen receptor and protooncogene loci, it is critical to understand the types of “mistakes” made by the recombinase. Using a newly devised assay, we characterized 48 unique TCRβ recombination signal sequence (RSS) end insertions in murine thymocyte and splenocyte genomic DNA samples. Nearly half of these events targeted “cryptic” RSS-like elements. In no instance did we detect target-site duplications, which is a hallmark of
