Published in 2022 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-1720-5_19

Abstract: Genetic balancer systems, which allow effective capture and maintenance of lethal mutations stably, play an important role in identifying essential genes. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) followed by bioinformatics analysis, combined with genetic mapping data analysis, allows… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Environmental Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2018.11.047

Abstract: Purpose To evaluate the development of delayed lethal mutations, the production of medium borne lethal bystander signals, and the acquirement of radiosensitive or radioresistant traits in distant descendant progeny of fish and amphibian cells surviving… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Human Genetics"

DOI: 10.1038/s10038-020-0801-3

Abstract: The theory of population genetics leads to the expectation that in very large populations the frequencies of recessive lethal mutations are close to the square root of the mutation rate, corresponding to mutation-selection balance. There… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics"

DOI: 10.1080/07391102.2020.1736158

Abstract: Abstract Alkaptonuria (AKU) is an autosomal recessive disorder, which is caused by a site-specific mutation(s) and thus, impaired the function of Homogentisate-1, 2-dioxygenase (HGD), an essential enzyme for the catabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine. Among… read more here.
