PHYLOGENETIC FOOTPRINTING OF NON-CODING RNA: HAMMERHEAD RIBOZYME SEQUENCES IN A SATELLITE DNA FAMILY OF DOLICHOPODA CAVE CRICKETS (ORTHOPTERA, RHAPHIDOPHORIDAE)

Abstract Background The great variety in sequence, length, complexity, and abundance of satellite DNA has made it difficult to ascribe any function to this genome component.Recent studies have shown that satellite DNA can be transcribed and be involved in regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression.Some satellite DNAs, such as the pDo500

The mammalian cochlea is a complex macroscopic structure due to its helical shape and the microscopic arrangements of the individual layers of cells.To improve the outcomes of hearing restoration in deaf patients, it is important to understand the anatomic structure and composition of the cochlea ex vivo.Hitherto, only one histological technique ba
