Molecular genetic methods for intestinal microbiome investigation by O. L. Kardymon, A. V. Kudryavtseva

“…Modern molecular genetic methods of microbial investigation combined to the established methods of classical microbiology give the chance not only to identify microorganism species and even a strain, but also to decipher their genomes, to estimate antibiotic resistance and to establish its mechanism at genetic level, to estimate specific properties of specific microbial strain that will allow to define potential and efficacy of their clinical application etc. …”

How do monomorphic bacteria evolve? The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and the awkward population genetics of extreme clonality by Stritt, Christoph, Gagneux, Sebastien

“…Population genetic methods allowing to infer mutation, recombination, genetic drift, and natural selection make strong assumptions that are difficult to reconcile with clonal reproduction and fully linked genomes consisting mainly of coding regions. In this review, we highlight the challenges of extreme clonality by discussing population genetic inference with the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, a group of closely related obligate bacterial pathogens of mammals. …”

Three regulatory elements upstream of LMO4 are strongly associated with intermittent fertilization intensity in Chicken by Lei Wang, Weijian Fan, Xiuping Wang, Yangming Pan, Xing Hong, Mingze Li, ShiJun Li

“…Notably, we observed significant differences in the expression of LMO4, located 247.2 kb downstream of IFI-associated genomic regions. To explore variants potentially involved in the regulation of LMO4, we conducted short variant annotation and SV-GWAS, but found no significant associations with IFI. …”

Genetic analysis of pathways regulated by the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor in Caenorhabditis elegans. by Tammie Bishop, Kah Weng Lau, Andrew C R Epstein, Stuart K Kim, Min Jiang, Delia O'Rourke, Christopher W Pugh, Jonathan M Gleadle, Martin S Taylor, Jonathan Hodgkin, Peter J Ratcliffe

“…However, persisting differential gene expression in hif-1 versus hif-1; vhl-1 double mutant worms clearly distinguished HIF-1-independent effects of VHL-1 inactivation. Genomic clustering, predicted functional similarities, and a common pattern of dysregulation in both vhl-1 worms and a set of mutants (dpy-18, let-268, gon-1, mig-17, and unc-6), with different defects in extracellular matrix formation, suggest that dysregulation of these genes reflects a discrete HIF-1-independent function of VHL-1 that is connected with extracellular matrix function.…”
