Programmed-DNA Elimination in the free-living nematodes <i>Mesorhabditis</i>
2022-03-19
Abstract excerpt
In most species, elaborate programs exist to protect chromatin and maintain its integrity over cell cycles and generations. However some species systematically undergo excision and elimination of portions of their genome in somatic cells in a process called programmed-DNA elimination (PDE). PDE involves the elimination of mainly repeated elements but also protein-coding genes. PDE has been described in approximate...
