Mashup Score: 1Intragenomic variation in non-adaptive nucleotide biases causes underestimation of selection on synonymous codon usage - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary Codon usage bias (CUB), or the unequal usage of codons of the same amino acid (i.e. synonymous codons), has been observed in species across all domains of life. CUB is known to be shaped by both non-adaptive (e.g. mutation biases) and adaptive (e.g. natural selection for translation efficiency/accuracy) evolution. A key challenge for researchers is disentangling the role of various…

Mashup Score: 0Transcription of ncRNAs promotes repair of UV induced DNA lesions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae subtelomeres - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary Our skin is constantly exposed to sunlight and the ultraviolet component of it can severely damage the DNA of our chromosomes. If that damage is not efficiently repaired, the cells’ physiology becomes deregulated and very often cancer ensues. The specific molecular mechanism that will remove this damage is called nucleotide excision repair or NER. NER is conserved from humans to…

Mashup Score: 3Local chromatin context regulates the genetic requirements of the heterochromatin spreading reaction - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary Repressive structures, or heterochromatin, are seeded at specific genome sequences and then “spread” to silence nearby chromosomal regions. While much is known about the factors that seed heterochromatin, the genetic requirements for spreading are less clear. We devised a fission yeast single-cell method to examine how gene silencing is propagated by the heterochromatin spreading…
