TLDR
In this paper, Dispersed repetitive DNA sequences from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) nuclear DNA have been isolated as molecular hybrids in lambdagt and showed marked alterations in the size of the restriction fragments containing these repetitive DNAs.

Gain of new exons and promoters by lineage-specific transposable elements-integration and conservation event on CHRM3 gene.

TL;DR: Taken together, exon-acquisition and alternative splicing events of CHRM3 genes were shown to have occurred through the continuous integration of transposable elements following conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biochemical and genetic discovery of the SAGA complex.

TL;DR: In this article, the early genetic and biochemical experiments that led to the discovery of SAGA and the elucidation of its multiple activities are reviewed.

Isolation of a DNA fragment that is expressed as an amber suppressor when present in high copy number in yeast

TL;DR: A plasmid carrying a DNA sequence conferring amber suppression has been isolated from yeast pool 35 DNA and the suppressor sequence was shown to integrate close to the MAL4 gene located on the right arm of chromosome XI.

Genetics of resistance to virus-induced leukemias.

TL;DR: The chapter highlights the virology of leukemia-inducing and related viruses, discusses the issues of specificity in virus-host genomic interaction, and describes the current knowledge of host genes conferring resistance or susceptibility to virus-induced neoplasia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fate of donor insertion sequence IS1 during transposition.

TL;DR: Results suggest that a copy of a donor ISI is inserted at the new site, and a model for transposition is prevented that postulates that a reactive intermediate is formed by a tandem duplication of a transposable sequence.

Detection of specific sequences among DNA fragments separated by gel electrophoresis.

TL;DR: This paper describes a method of transferring fragments of DNA from agarose gels to cellulose nitrate filters that can be hybridized to radioactive RNA and hybrids detected by radioautography or fluorography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening lambdagt recombinant clones by hybridization to single plaques in situ

TL;DR: A rapid, direct method for screening single plaques of Agt recombinant phage is described, which allows at least 10(6) clones to be screened per day and simplifies physical containment of recombinants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of restriction fragments of T7 DNA and determination of molecular weights by electrophoresis in neutral and alkaline gels.

TL;DR: Electrophoresis in alkaline gels can provide accurate molecular weights for linear, single-Stranded DNAs, and should be useful in analyzing DNA for single-strand breaks, depurinations or topological differences such as ring forms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosome organization and genic expression.

TL;DR: Presented at the Cold Spring Harbor Symposium in 1951, this paper focused on regulation and development rather than transposition, and strongly reflected McClintock's newfound interest in theory.
