    Mountain- and brown hare genetic polymorphisms to survey local adaptations and conservation status of the heath hare (Lepus timidus sylvaticus, Nilsson 1831)

    We provide the first whole genome sequences from three specimens of the mountain hare subspecies the heath hare (Lepus timidus sylvaticus), along with samples from two mountain hares (Lepus timidus timidus) and t...

    Hybridization with mountain hares increases the functional allelic repertoire in brown hares

    Brown hares (Lepus europaeus Pallas) are able to hybridize with mountain hares (L. timidus Linnaeus) and produce fertile offspring, which results in cross-species gene flow. However, not much is known about the f...

    Replication fork rescue in mammalian mitochondria

    Replication stalling has been associated with the formation of pathological mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) rearrangements. Yet, almost nothing is known about the fate of stalled replication intermediates in mitocho...

    Overexpression of MTERFD1 or MTERFD3 impairs the completion of mitochondrial DNA replication

    The physiological roles of the mitochondrial transcription termination factor (mTERF) family are poorly understood. MTERF and its homologues influence transcriptional readthrough in vitro, but the extent to wh...
