13. Mu1-Related Transposable Elements of Maize Preferentially Insert into Low Copy Number DNA
The Mutator transposable element system of maize was originally identified through its induction of mutations at an exceptionally high frequency and at a wide variety of loci. The Mu1 subfamily of transposable elements within this system are responsible for the majority of Mutator-induced mutations. Mu 1-related elements were isolated from active Mutator pla

14. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) DNA Copy Number Is Dependent on Grade of Cervical Disease and HPV Type
The association between human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA copy number and cervical disease was investigated. Viral DNA copy number for the most common high-risk HPV types in cervical cancer (types 16, 18, 31, and 45) was determined in cervical cytobrush specimens from 149 women with high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN II-CIN III), 176 with low-g

15. Plastid Transcription Activity and DNA Copy Number Increase Early in Barley Chloroplast Development 1
Plastid transcription activity and DNA copy number were quantified during chloroplast development in the first foliage leaf in dark-grown and illuminated barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings. Primary foliage leaves of seedlings given continuous illumination from 2 days post-imbibition reached a final mean length of 15 centimeters at 6.5 days, whereas primar

16. Strand specific PCR amplification of low copy number DNA.
A method for the amplification of a single DNA strand at low copy number is described. It is a wholly PCR based approach which involves an initial linear amplification of the target using a tagged strand specific primer. This is followed by classical PCR amplification of the progeny using a pair of primers, one specific for the sequence tagged onto the 5' en

17. Detecting Gene Copy Number Fluctuations in Tumor Cells by Microarray Analysis of Genomic Representations
In this work, we explore the use of representations in conjunction with DNA microarray technology to measure gene copy number changes in cancer. We demonstrate that arrays of DNA probes derived from low-complexity representations can be used to detect amplifications, deletions, and polymorphic differences when hybridized to representations of genomic DNA.

18. Bovine papillomavirus type 1 E1 replication-defective mutants are altered in their transcriptional regulation.
Bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) is capable of replicating as a stable, high-copy-number plasmid in transformed rodent cells. The BPV-1 E1 open reading frame (ORF) encodes multiple functions involved in viral DNA replication. Mutations which disrupt the translational integrity of the E1 ORF disable the viral genome from replicating as a stable plasmid an

19. Integration of Cot Analysis, DNA Cloning, and High-Throughput Sequencing Facilitates Genome Characterization and Gene Discovery
Cot-based sequence discovery represents a powerful means by which both low-copy and repetitive sequences can be selectively and efficiently fractionated, cloned, and characterized. Based upon the results of a Cot analysis, hydroxyapatite chromatography was used to fractionate sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) genomic DNA into highly repetitive (HR), moderately repet

20. Expression of the hepatitis B virus genome in chronic hepatitis B carriers and patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
We examined the methylation status of CCGG sites in hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA to determine whether methylation could be responsible for the selective expression of the HBV surface gene in chronic hepatitis B infection and hepatocellular carcinoma. Infected liver tissue from patients with low levels of viral replication was analyzed for HBV DNA copy number

21. The Brucella abortus CcrM DNA Methyltransferase Is Essential for Viability, and Its Overexpression Attenuates Intracellular Replication in Murine Macrophages
The CcrM DNA methyltransferase of the α-proteobacteria catalyzes the methylation of the adenine in the sequence GAnTC. Like Dam in the enterobacteria, CcrM plays a regulatory role in Caulobacter crescentus and Rhizobium meliloti. CcrM is essential for viability in both of these organisms, and we show here that it is also essential in Brucella abortus. Furth

22. Conditionally Amplifiable BACs: Switching From Single-Copy to High-Copy Vectors and Genomic Clones
The widely used, very-low-copy BAC (bacterial artificial chromosome) vectors are the mainstay of present genomic research. The principal advantage of BACs is the high stability of inserted clones, but an important disadvantage is the low yield of DNA, both for vectors alone and when carrying genomic inserts. We describe here a novel class of single-copy/high

23. Regulation of initiation of the chromosomal replication by DnaA-boxes in the origin region of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome.
A gene homologous to the Escherichia coli dnaA gene and two flanking 'regulatory' regions which contain nine and four DnaA-boxes respectively, are located in the replication origin region of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome. Attempts to isolate an autonomously replicating fragment from these 'regulatory' regions in order to identify oriC have been unsuccessf

24. Substoichiometric shifting in the plant mitochondrial genome is influenced by a gene homologous to MutS
The plant mitochondrial genome is retained in a multipartite structure that arises by a process of repeat-mediated homologous recombination. Low-frequency ectopic recombination also occurs, often producing sequence chimeras, aberrant ORFs, and novel subgenomic DNA molecules. This genomic plasticity may distinguish the plant mitochondrion from mammalian and f
