SELF RECOGNITION. "The invention of meiosis puts pressure on the development of mechanisms wherein haploid cells first recognize other haploid cells with the same chromosome complement, and then fuse with them selectively." https://lnkd.in/ebVhXPf View in LinkedIn
MEIOSIS INNOVATION (1) "Mechanisms to promote breaks that stimulate meiotic recombination frequencies to higher levels than mitotic recombination frequencies." https://lnkd.in/ebVhXPf View in LinkedIn
HYPOTHESIS. "It is appealing to posit that the combinatorial-control “idea,” originally governing the differentiation of diploid zygotic spores, was co-opted to govern the differentiation of multicellular diploids." http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/6/3/a016154.full View in LinkedIn
"HOMEOPROTEIN (HP) transcription factors are the products of a family of developmental genes with multiple functions, including the definition of body axis, lineage decision and cell/growth cone migration and guidance. They are characterized by their highly conserved 60 amino acid-long DNA-binding domain, the homeodomain (HD)." https://lnkd.in/dchynSE View in LinkedIn
"AN EXPLOSIVE EXPANSION of homeoprotein-encoding genes has accompanied the evolution of multicellularity in animals and land plants, with homeoprotein-based combinatorial control exerted over core domains of the body plan: PBC/MEIS + HOX proteins specify the anterior–posterior axis of animals, and KNOX + BELL proteins specify the initiation of the moss sporophyte program and regulate the architecture of shoot apical meristems." http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/6/3/a016154.full View in LinkedIn
HIBERNATION MODE. "Hence the programs that govern haploid spore formation are expected to include “spore-specific” genes that are not expressed in cycling cells and are activated at the time that the circumstances dictate the importance of shifting to a resting state." http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/6/3/a016154.full View in LinkedIn
SPORULATION PERIODS. "They also impose modulation of gene expression to a minimalist “maintenance” mode and the accumulation of polysaccharide and lipid storage products for use during germination and the resumption of mitosis when conditions improve." http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/6/3/a016154.full View in LinkedIn
