Functional properties of the Su(Hw) complex are determined by its regulatory environment and multiple interactions on the Su(Hw) protein platform by L. S. Melnikova, M. V. Kostyuchenko, V. V. Molodina, P. G. Georgiev, A. K. Golovnin

“…Some insulator complexes contribute to the higher-order organization of chromatin in topologically associated domains that are fundamental elements of the eukaryotic genomic structure. The Su(Hw)-dependent protein complex is a unique model for studying the insulator, since its basic structural components affecting its activity are already known. …”

The problem of norovirus infection in animals (literature review) by V. А. Mischenko, A. V. Mischenko, T. B. Nikeshina, O. N. Petrova, Yu. V. Brovko, A. I. Kushlubaeva

“…The noroviruses were detected in fecal samples from humans, cattle, pigs, sheep, dogs, cats, mice, as well as in pork and milk samples. The norovirus genome is prone to mutations, resulting in antigenic shifts and recombination, as well as the emergence and rapid spread of new epidemic and epizootic variants. …”

Diversification and recurrent adaptation of the synaptonemal complex in Drosophila. by Rana Zakerzade, Ching-Ho Chang, Kamalakar Chatla, Ananya Krishnapura, Samuel P Appiah, Jacki Zhang, Robert L Unckless, Justin P Blumenstiel, Doris Bachtrog, Kevin H-C Wei

“…Overall, our study recapitulates the poor conservation of SC components, and further uncovers that the lack of conservation extends to other modalities including copy number, genomic locale, and germline regulation. Considering the elevated testes expression in many Drosophila species and the common ancestor, we suggest that the activity of SC genes in the male germline, while still poorly understood, may be a prime target of constant evolutionary pressures driving repeated adaptations and innovations.…”
