Evolution of a new testis-specific functional promotor within the highly conserved Map2k7 gene of the mouse

T. Heinen, C. Xie, M. Keshavarz, D. Stappert, S. Kuenzel, D. Tautz

The paper identifies a new testis-specific promoter in the conserved Map2k7 gene in M. m. domesticus, showing its role in sperm motility and spermatid transcriptome.

Natural copy number differences of tandemly repeated small nucleolar RNAs in the Prader-Willi syndrome genomic region regulate individual behavioral responses in mammals

M. Keshavarz, R. Krebs, P. N. Refki, Y. Savriama, Y. N. Zhang, A. Guenther, T. M. Brückl, E. Binder, D. Tautz

The paper shows that copy number variations of SNORD115 and SNORD116 in the PWS region correlate with anxiety-like behaviors across species and populations.

Studying the dawn of de novo gene emergence in mice reveals fast integration of new genes into functional networks

C. Xie, C. Bekpen, S. Künzel, M. Keshavarz, R. Krebs-Wheaton, N. Skrabar, K. K. Ullrich, D. Tautz

The paper studies three newly emerged genes in mice, showing they quickly integrate into functional networks without extensive adaptive changes.
