Short interspersed element (SINE) depletion and long interspersed element (LINE) abundance are not features universally required for imprinting.

PloS One, 6(4), 18953.

By: M. Chahal*, M. Cowley* , R. McCole *, R. Oakey *, G. Saadat*, R. Schulz *, B. de*

MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; DNA Methylation; Genomic Imprinting; Humans; Long Interspersed Nucleotide Elements / genetics; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Short Interspersed Nucleotide Elements / genetics
topics (OpenAlex): Genetic Syndromes and Imprinting; Epigenetics and DNA Methylation; Genomic variations and chromosomal abnormalities
TL;DR: The repeat element content of imprinted retrogene loci with non-imprinted controls that have a similar locus organisation is compared, suggesting that the paucity of SINEs and relative abundance of LINEs at imprinted loci reported by others is not a sequence feature universally required for imprinting.

Melanoma and DNA damage from a distance (farstander effect).

Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research.

Contributors: S. Gaddameedhi*  & A. Sancar

MeSH headings : Animals; Bystander Effect; Cell Cycle; DNA Damage; Humans; Melanoma / pathology; Mice; Models, Biological; Oxidation-Reduction
topics (OpenAlex): Effects of Radiation Exposure; DNA Repair Mechanisms; Carcinogens and Genotoxicity Assessment
