Vandepoele, Klaas, Saeys, Yvan, Simillion, Cedric, Raes, Jeroen, Van De Peer, Yves

It is expected that one of the merits of comparative genomics lies in the transfer of structural and functional information from one genome to another. This is based on the observation that, although...

Genome-Wide Characterization of the Lignification Toolbox in Arabidopsis1[w]

Raes, Jeroen, Rohde, Antje, Christensen, Jørgen Holst, Van De Peer, Yves, Boerjan, Wout

Lignin, one of the most abundant terrestrial biopolymers, is indispensable for plant structure and defense. With the availability of the full genome sequence, large collections of insertion mutants,...

GeneFarm, structural and functional annotation of Arabidopsis gene and protein families by a network of experts

Aubourg, Sébastien, Brunaud, Véronique, Bruyère, Clémence, Cock, Mark, Cooke, Richard, Cottet, Annick, ...

Genomic projects heavily depend on genome annotations and are limited by the current deficiencies in the published predictions of gene structure and function. It follows that, improved annotation...

Modeling gene and genome duplications in eukaryotes

Maere, Steven, De Bodt, Stefanie, Raes, Jeroen, Casneuf, Tineke, Van Montagu, Marc, Kuiper, Martin, ...

Recent analysis of complete eukaryotic genome sequences has revealed that gene duplication has been rampant. Moreover, next to a continuous mode of gene duplication, in many eukaryotic organisms the...

Nonrandom divergence of gene expression following gene and genome duplications in the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana

Casneuf, Tineke, De Bodt, Stefanie, Raes, Jeroen, Maere, Steven, Van De Peer, Yves

Analysis of expression data of duplicated genes in Arabidopsis thaliana shows that the mode of duplication, the time since duplication and the function of the duplicated genes play a role in the...

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay factors act in concert to regulate common mRNA targets

REHWINKEL, JAN, LETUNIC, IVICA, RAES, JEROEN, BORK, PEER, IZAURRALDE, ELISA

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a surveillance pathway that degrades mRNAs containing nonsense codons, and regulates the expression of naturally occurring transcripts. While NMD is not...
