Isochores

07/01/2004 - "Moreover, the SCAR DNA sequences containing regions of homology with LINE/SINE repeats were observed in all the isochore families. "
11/01/2016 - "Using the hybridization technique, it was demonstrated that localization of SCAR DNA was evolutionarily conserved in the isochore compositional fractions of the three examined genomes of warm-blooded vertebrates—human, chicken, and golden hamster. "
05/01/2014 - "It was concluded that SCARs DNA localization into isochore com- partments of examined genomes is evolutionary conservative."
05/01/2014 - "The localization of sequences, similar to golden hamster SCARs DNA in the human and chicken genome isochores was established. "
05/01/2014 - "Isochore compositional fractions of the human and chicken genomes were used as 32P-labeled probes for hybridization with the SCARs DNA isolated previously from the spermatocyte nucleus of the golden hamster Mesocricetus auratus. "

10/01/2004 - "A four-stroke cycle of operation is studied, with two isochore branches where heat is transferred from the hot/cold baths and two adiabats where work is exchanged. "

10/15/1991 - "We have found that integration occurred in the isochores richest in guanine + cytosine, of the host genome, as it had been previously observed for bovine leukemia and hepatitis B viral sequences. "

03/01/2004 - "(2) At higher viremia, an increased distribution of proviruses in GC-poor isochores (which match the GC poorness of HIV-1) was found; this suggests a selection of cells in which the 'isopycnic' localization leads to a higher expression of proviruses and, in turn, to higher viremia. "
03/01/2004 - "(3) At the highest viremia, integrations in GC-rich isochores are often predominant again, but generally not at the same level as in (1); this may be the consequence of new integrations from the extremely abundant RNA copies."
03/01/2004 - "(1) At low viremia, proviruses are predominantly localized in the GC-richest isochores, which are characterized by an open chromatin structure; this result mimics findings on HIV-1 integration in early infected cells in culture. "

10/01/2000 - "Therefore we analyzed the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene region on chromosome 17q11.2, which is characterized by a nonuniform LD pattern and an L1-to-H2 isochore transition. "
