Highly conserved motifs in non-coding regions of Sirevirus retrotransposons: the key for their pattern of distribution within and across plants?
Our comparative analysis of retrotransposon genomes using advanced in silico methods highlighted the unique genome organization of Sireviruses. Their structure may dictate a life cycle with different regulation and transmission strategy compared to other Pseudoviridae, which may contribute towards their pattern of distribution within and across plants.
In dialysis patients, BV/TV is not dependent on bone turnover or bone mineralization. BV/TV is unlikely to indicate the balance between bone formation and bone resorption. Instead, it reflects trabecular bone connectivity, and improved trabecular bone connectivity is physiologically beneficial in terms of bone quality. The turnover-mineralization-volume system offers an advantage over the conventional system for the assessment of bone quality.
