Abstract:
Retroelements are genomic parasites which make up ~42% of the human genome and 38% of the mouse genome. Most are degenerate, but a large number have relatively intact promoter elements, suggesting that they are capable of transcription. Transcriptionally active retroelements can perturb normal transcription units in their vicinity through a variety of mechanisms, leading to phenotypic effects and in some cases disease. This phenomenon of transcriptional interference has been observed in organisms as diverse as maize, Drosophila, and the mouse. We analysed the extent of retroelement transcr

Abstract:
I retroelementi sono sequenze altamente ripetute disperse nel genoma, che codificano per una Trascrittasi Inversa (RT). Cellule e tessuti caratterizzati da una elevata capacità di proliferazione e un basso grado di differenziamento (come cellule tumorali o embrionali) esprimono alti livelli di RT che al contrario è scarsamente espressa in tessuti terminalmente differenziati. E’ noto da precedenti studi condotti nel nostro laboratorio che il trattamento di diverse linee cellulari tumorali con due inibitori non nucleosidici della RT, la nevirapina ed l’efavirenz, induce una riduzione dell

Abstract:
Inbred lines for hybrid crop production have been a mainstay of plant breeding. Biotechnological approaches to hasten the process are available including anther culture to halve the genome and protoplast fusion to create hybrids between incompatible partners. We applied these techniques to potato to evaluate their potential for breeding highly heterozygous, cross-pollinating species. Four families of monoploids (2n=1x=12), developed from diploid hybrids with diverse genomic constitutions but heavily favoring Solanum phureja, a primitive cultivated potato, were used in electrofusion experiments

Abstract:
This dissertation describes the characterization of a novel transposable element isolated from the plant pathogenic fungus Magnaporthe grisea. The sequence of MGR583, a previously reported repeated DNA fragment, was completed and shown to have features characteristic of non-LTR retroelements (LINEs). These include an element length of 5.9 kb, the lack of flanking long terminal repeats, the presence of short (6-13 bp) direct repeats flanking many element copies, and two principal open reading frames (ORFs). The first ORF is 570 amino acids in length and contains homology to the gag ORFs found

Abstract:
The reverse flow of genetic information can occur when a special DNA polymerase called Reverse Transcriptase (RT) copies the genetic information in an RNA molecule back into a complementary DNA. One type of RT encoding gene found in bacteria is called a retron element. Recent bacterial genome sequencing projects have revealed many examples of retron RT genes. This gene assignment is based on comparison with a few known retron RT proteins. However, RT proteins are highly diverse in their amino acid sequences, and thus the assigned identity of these RT proteins as retrons in genome databases is

Abstract:
Retroelements are some of the most successful parasites studied because of their ability to reverse transcribe and permanently integrate into the host genome. Host cells have, therefore, evolved multiple control mechanisms, such as cellular restriction factors, to protect their genomes from the pathogenic and mutagenic effects of retroelements. Identification of the full complement of these proteins is vital to comprehend the capacity of the host to regulate these genetic parasites.

Abstract:
Mammals are constantly challenged by numerous pathogens that pose a threat to their health. Upon infection, retroviruses quickly integrate their genome into that of their host thereby permanently modifying it. Protein members of the APOBEC3 (A3) family exhibit cytidine deaminase activity that specifically acts on single-stranded DNA to deaminate deoxycytidine bases into deoxyuridines. This process is potentially mutagenic because uracil directs the insertion of adenine on the opposite DNA strand. High levels of mutations induced by A3 proteins in the retroviral genome ultimately inactivate pro
