James Franklin Crow (January 18, 1916 – January 4, 2012) was Professor Emeritus of Genetics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and a prominent population geneticist whose career spanned from the modern synthesis to the genomic era.
Nature Reviews Genetics is a monthly review journal published by Nature Portfolio. It was established in 2000 and covers the full breadth of modern genetics. It was established in 2000 and covers the full breadth of modern genetics.
Frankham's research has covered a range of topics in quantitative genetics/animal breeding, [10] [11] population genetics, [12] conservation biology, [13] and especially conservation genetics. It has involved primary research papers using Drosophila fruit flies as a model species, [ 14 ] [ 15 ] computer modeling , [ 16 ] analytical theory, [ 17 ...
Not in Our Genes received positive reviews from the columnist Gene Lyons in Newsweek and the paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould in The New York Review of Books, [4] [5] a mixed review from the philosopher Philip Kitcher in The New York Times Book Review, [6] and negative reviews from the anthropologist Melvin Konner in Natural History and the biologist Patrick Bateson and the ethologist Richard ...
L1s can further impact genome variation through mispairing and unequal crossing over during meiosis due to its repetitive DNA sequences. [4] L1 gene products are also required by many non-autonomous Alu and SVA SINE retrotransposons.
Pseudogenes are usually characterized by a combination of similarity or homology to a known gene, together with a loss of some functionality. That is, although every pseudogene has a DNA sequence that is similar to some functional gene, they are usually unable to produce functional final protein products. [1]
Transcriptional noise is a primary cause of the variability in gene expression occurring between cells in isogenic populations (see also cellular noise) . [1] A proposed source of transcriptional noise is transcriptional bursting [2] [3] [4] although other sources of heterogeneity, such as unequal separation of cell contents at mitosis are also likely to contribute considerably.
