For the past two decades, the study of alternative splicing (AS) and its involvement in plant
development and stress response has grown in popularity. Only recently however, has the …

Telomeres and genes encoding 45S ribosomal RNA (rDNA) are frequently located adjacent
to each other on eukaryotic chromosomes. Although their primary roles are different, they …

Virus infection of plants may induce a variety of disease symptoms. However, little is known
about the molecular mechanism of systemic symptom development in infected plants. Here …

Histone crotonylation is a new lysine acylation type of post-translational modification (PTM)
enriched at active gene promoters and potential enhancers in yeast and mammalian cells …

Telomeres, as physical ends of linear chromosomes, are targets of a number of specific
proteins, including primarily telomerase reverse transcriptase. Access of proteins to the …

Alternative precursor mRNA splicing is a widespread phenomenon in multicellular
eukaryotes and represents a major means for functional expansion of the transcriptome …

In the early-diverging protozoan parasite Plasmodium, few telomere-binding proteins have
been identified and several are unique. Plasmodium telomeres, like those of most …

Plant cells contain a diverse repertoire of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that coordinate a
network of post-transcriptional regulation. RBPs govern diverse developmental processes …

Telomere homeostasis is regulated at multiple levels, including the local chromatin structure
of telomeres and subtelomeres. Recent reports demonstrated that a decrease in repressive …

The cellular roles of RAD51 paralogs in somatic and reproductive growth have been
extensively described in a wide range of animal systems and, to a lesser extent, in …
