Chromosomal rearrangements, such as chromosome segment inversions, may affect the epigenetic landscape as well as gene expression. Different kinds of chromosome segment inversions have been found in ...

We developed the prime editing tool PIE, which produces precise inversions of large genomic segments and chromosomal structural variations in mammalian cells. PIEv3b achieves high inversion efficiency ...

Carriers of balanced pericentric inversions are at risk for producing unbalanced gametes because of meiotic recombination resulting in de novo deletion and duplication of distal chromosome ends.

When a species lives in two distinct types of habitats, individuals with traits better suited to each habitat will thrive and reproduce, naturally selecting descendants with those traits. But what ...

Robertsonian chromosomes (ROB) are a type of structurally variant chromosome that is created when two chromosomes fuse together to form an unusual bond. Found commonly in nature, these chromosomes are ...
