  1. ..., Guelph, ON N1G 2W1, Canada Corresponding author: michael.wilson@sickkids.caAbstractTransposable elements (TEs) provide a source of transcription factor (TF) binding sites that can rewire gene regulatory networks. NF-kB is an evolutionarily conserved TF complex primarily involved in innate immunity...
  2. ...in the sequence conservation of pleiotropic CREs.One of the initial perplexing revelations of the human project was the seemingly limited number of genes, which did not align with the increase in complexity compared with organisms such as yeast, worms, and flies. It became evident that this complexity must stem...
  3. ....ji@northwestern.eduAbstract3′-end cleavage and polyadenylation is an essential process for eukaryotic mRNA maturation. In yeast species, the polyadenylation signals that recruit the processing machinery are degenerate and remain poorly characterized compared with the well-defined regulatory elements in mammals. Here we...
  4. ...as yeasts, plants, worms, flies, and humans. The rDNA locus is an ideal candidate to harbor fundamental and evolutionarily conserved aging mechanisms as well as yield widely applicable markers of aging. In eukaryotes, the array originates the nucleolus, the site of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcription...
  5. .... Phylogenetic hidden Markov models. In Statistical methods in molecular evolution (ed. Nielsen R), pp. 325–351. Springer, New York. Siepel A, Bejerano G, Pedersen JS, Hinrichs AS, Hou M, Rosenbloom K, Clawson H, Spieth J, Hillier LW, Richards S, et al. 2005. Evolutionarily conserved elements in vertebrate...
  6. ...sequences (Chen et al. 2013; Van Oss and Carvunis 2019). Distinguishing products of gene duplications from de novo genes is often not straightforward, as extensive sequence divergence can prohibit the detection of homologous sequences. Consequently, depending on the taxonomic resolution of available genomic...
  7. ...the fraction of nucleotides overlapped by evolutionarily conserved genomic elements and compared to the equivalent fraction for intronic TEs of the same type. To assess statistical significance, we again used positional randomization (see Fig. 3C, inset). This pipeline was applied independently to the phast...
  8. ...enhancers do not exhibit strong evidence of transposon co-option (Emera et al. 2016). Many important questions remain unanswered: To what extent are regulatory elements functionally conserved across primates? Are specific genomic features predictive of CRE conservation? To what extent have TEs driven...
  9. ..., University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195, USA; 9Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA Structured elements of RNA molecules are essential in, e.g., RNA stabilization, localization, and protein interaction, and their conservation across species suggests a common...
  10. ...large numbers of developmentally synchronized worms.Traditional approaches to identify CRMs have relied on individually testing conserved sequences in transgenic reporter assays, but these are limited by relatively low throughput. Many enhancers have been found this way in C. elegans, of which most...
