Following this in 2015, an article (Alsaweed et al.) described over 300
novel milk microRNA molecules, components that are known to play a key role in the
regulation of gene expression.
Compared with the ancestral lineage, the East African cichlid genomes possess: an excess
of gene duplications; alterations in regulatory, non-protein-coding elements in the genome; accelerated evolution
of protein - coding elements, especially in
genes for pigmentation; and other distinct features that affect
gene expression, such as insertions
of transposable elements and
regulation by
novel microRNAs.
We found an excess
of gene duplications in the East African lineage compared to tilapia and other teleosts, an abundance
of non-coding element divergence, accelerated coding sequence evolution,
expression divergence associated with transposable element insertions, and
regulation by
novel microRNAs.
Finally, we will conduct an RNAi based screen to identify
novel factors that are involved in the
regulation of sestrin
gene expression and that may act in conjunction with p53.
The Kind group studies the
regulation of gene expression in single cells by developing and using
novel microscopy and genomics based techniques.
To uncover molecular processes in individual cells and to understand the full complexity
of biological systems, our lab applies and develops
novel microscopy and genomics based techniques to study the
regulation of gene -
expression in single cells.
We report 6 new signals
of association in or near HSPB7, TNXB, LRP12, LOC283335, SEPT9, and AKT2, and provide new replication evidence for a further 2 signals in EBF2 and NFKBIA Combining large whole - blood
gene expression resources totaling 12 607 individuals, we investigated all
novel and previously reported signals and identified 48
genes with evidence for involvement in blood pressure
regulation that are significant in multiple resources.
Conclusion: These findings highlight innovations specifically evolved in platyhelminths presumably associated with
novel mechanisms
of gene expression regulation mediated by small RNA pathways that differ to what has been classically described in model organisms.
