Gene conversion is the process by which one DNA sequence replaces a homologous sequence such that the sequences become identical after the conversion...

appeared that the m gene had been converted to the + gene or vice versa. And so the phenomenon was termed "gene conversion." Gene conversion was first detected...

selection for V(D)J, but they also perform somatic gene conversion. This kind of gene conversion is also started by the AID enzyme, leading to a double-strand...

fixed due to some combination of natural selection, genetic drift, and gene conversion. Mutations are permanent, transmissible changes to the genetic material...

intermediates preceding gene conversion were found to rarely take the alternate route of crossover recombination. The Y-Y gene conversion rate in humans is...

Gene conversion allows tandemly arrayed genes to become homogenized, or identical. Gene conversion may be allelic or ectopic. Allelic gene conversion...

Gene conversion has often been studied in fungal crosses where the 4 products of individual meioses can be conveniently observed. Gene conversion events...

DNA elements allow new genes to evolve by uncoupling similar DNA sequences from gene conversion during meiosis. Gene conversion acts on DNA sequence homology...

possibly due to the action of biased gene conversion rather than adaptive evolution. Several of the HARs encompass genes known to produce proteins important...

laboratories, established the phenomenon of "gene conversion" (e.g. see references). As an example of the gene conversion phenomenon, consider genetic crosses...

and in some cases of mitosis. Gene conversion can be one of the major forms of non-Mendelian inheritance. Gene conversion arises during DNA repair via...

cycles of gene transfer and conversion increasingly make gene family members more similar. In the process of gene transfer, allelic gene conversion is biased...

Normally genes are responsible for occurrence of crossing over. It exchanges sequences of different links between chromosomes. Along with gene conversion, it...

with gene conversion during somatic recombination in B cells. The mutation in the gene causes an enzyme that does not function properly, thus gene conversion...

Gene duplication (or chromosomal duplication or gene amplification) is a major mechanism through which new genetic material is generated during molecular...

the repressor is turned off as is H2 allowing H1 to be expressed. Gene conversion is another example of a type of phase variation. Type IV pili of Neisseria...

Most breaks are repaired without forming crossovers resulting in gene conversion. However, a subset of breaks (at least one per chromosome) form crossovers...

original published mechanism of RB1 LOH was mitotic recombination/gene conversion/copy-neutral LOH, not deletion. There is a critical difference between...

Furthermore, the fraction of homologous recombination events occurring by gene conversion is increased. These findings suggest that the normal untruncated nuclear...

fitness of an organism. Rather, current evidence suggests that GC‐biased gene conversion (gBGC) is a driving factor behind variation in GC content. gBGC is...

organisms. Some genes may be more prone to gene conversion than others[citation needed], thus reinforcing the unity of the genes within a gene family of a...

proteins can then recombine, through a process called gene conversion, resulting in a new gene variant. This has a profound effect on the fitness of an...

and might be linked to a molecular phenomenon called the GC-biased gene conversion. In polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiments, the GC-content of...

the heavy and light gene Ig loci take part in somatic gene conversion – a process where pseudogenes replace the VH and VL genes. This diversifies the...

the result of gene conversion, while 89% of patients harbored at least one such mutation. Gene conversion occurs when the intact SBDS gene and its pseudogene...

of the original set of strands leads to two molecules that may show gene conversion but not chromosomal crossover, while cleavage of the other set of two...

analyses have also contributed to detection and study of the phenomena of gene conversion and post-meiotic segregation. These studies have proven central to...

products because flanking markers of heteroduplex DNA are not exchanged, gene conversion may occur, wherein nonreciprocal genetic transfer takes place between...
