Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences that propagate within genomes.
Through diverse invasion strategies, TEs have come to occupy a substantial fraction of …

Satellite DNA consists of abundant tandem repeats that play important roles in cellular
processes, including chromosome segregation, genome organization and chromosome end …

Mobile elements and repetitive genomic regions are sources of lineage-specific genomic
innovation and uniquely fingerprint individual genomes. Comprehensive analyses of such …

Centromeres are essential regions of eukaryotic chromosomes responsible for the formation
of kinetochore complexes, which connect to spindle microtubules during cell division …

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences that colonize genomes and
threaten genome integrity. As a result, several mechanisms appear to have emerged during …

Centromeres are the eukaryotic chromosomal sites at which the kinetochore forms and
attaches to spindle microtubules to orchestrate chromosomal segregation in mitosis and …

Genome assemblies are currently being produced at an impressive rate by consortia and
individual laboratories. The low costs and increasing efficiency of sequencing technologies …

Transposable elements (TEs) are ubiquitous genetic elements, able to jump from one
location of the genome to another, in all organisms. For this reason, on the one hand, TEs …

The centromere performs a universally conserved function, to accurately partition genetic
information upon cell division. Yet, centromeres are among the most rapidly evolving …

Insects are major contributors to our understanding of the interaction between transposable
elements (TEs) and their hosts, owing to seminal discoveries, as well as to the growing …
