Welcome to our weekly lunch seminar held in the dScience lounge area with Øyvind Christiansen.
The REPEAT group (PIs: Kjetill S. Jakobsen and Melinka A. Butenko) are interested in the functional and evolutionary importance of short tandem repeats in genomes. Short tandem repeats are common, but hypermutable regions. This leads to a high number of short tandem repeat variants in a population. We have combined population genomics and experimental approaches to study the impact of short tandem repeat alleles in Arabidopsis, with emphasis on their role in gene regulation and how they impact protein function. Based on our findings from Arabidopsis, we conducted a study of repeats across 1,270 species, including animal, fungal, plant, and other eukaryotic genomes. In this seminar I will present the results from this (recently submitted) study.
NB: NEW DATE MAY 16.
