AbstractВ В В В 

This work presents the results of using computer scripts to analyze ChIP-seq data, calculate clusters, and visualize them in the form of heat maps. In the work, ChIP-seq peaks were used to study the stem cell niche of three plants, among which the well-known Talus (Arabidopsis Thailana), Physcomitrella patens, Chlamydomonas reinhardti. What about the tendency of co-localization of transcription factors in plant genomes? What are the features of this co-localization?

Aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria or methanotrophs have the unique ability to grow on methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. The main metabolic steps of the methane utilization by microorganisms have been identified and well-studied to date. However, a detailed understanding of molecular genetic mechanisms that provide an adaptive response at the level of transcription regulation to various growth conditions, high and low pH, temperature, and salinity is still elusive. To solve the issue we have conducted a detailed theoretical study of the molecular mechanisms of gene expression regulation in the bacterium Methylotuvimicrobium alcaliphilum 20ZR (hereinafter 20ZR) based on the integration of original omics data into genome-scale metabolic model of the 20ZR.

LTR-retrotransposons are mobile genetic elements widespread in plant genomes. Dispite the fact of significant part of genome engaged by retrotransposons (up to 80 percent), their activity is suppressed by multiple posttranscriptional and epigenetic mechanisms in normal conditions. Retrotransposon escape from silencing and subsequent expression are, in turn, purely described for plants.
