Opis:
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae three different DNA polymerases α, δ and ε are involved in DNA replication. DNA polymerase α is responsible for initiation of DNA synthesis and polymerases δ and ε are required for elongation of DNA strand during replication. DNA polymerases δ and ε are also involved in DNA repair. In this work we studied the role of these three DNA polymerases in the process of recombinational synthesis. Using thermo-sensitive heteroallelic mutants in genes encoding DNA polymerases we studied their role in the process of induced gene conversion. Mutant strains were treated with mutagens, incubated under permissive or restrictive conditions and the numbers of convertants obtained were compared. A very high difference in the number of convertants between restrictive and permissive conditions was observed for polymerases α and δ, which suggests that these two polymerases play an important role in DNA synthesis during mitotic gene conversion. Marginal dependence of gene conversion on the activity of polymerase ε indicates that this DNA polymerase may be involved in this process but rather as an auxiliary enzyme.

Opis:
This review focuses on plant-to-plant horizontal gene transfer (HGT) involving the three DNA-containing cellular compartments. It highlights the great incidence of HGT in the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) of angiosperms, the increasing number of examples in plant nuclear genomes, and the lack of any convincing evidence for HGT in the well-studied plastid genome of land plants. Most of the foreign mitochondrial genes are non-functional, generally found as pseudogenes in the recipient plant mtDNA that maintains its functional native genes. The few exceptions involve chimeric HGT, in which foreign and native copies recombine leading to a functional and single copy of the gene. Maintenance of foreign genes in plant mitochondria is probably the result of genetic drift, but a possible evolutionary advantage may be conferred through the generation of genetic diversity by gene conversion between native and foreign copies. Conversely, a few cases of nuclear HGT in plants involve functional transfers of novel genes that resulted in adaptive evolution. Direct cell-to-cell contact between plants (e.g. host-parasite relationships or natural grafting) facilitate the exchange of genetic material, in which HGT has been reported for both nuclear and mitochondrial genomes, and in the form of genomic DNA, instead of RNA. A thorough review of the literature indicates that HGT in mitochondrial and nuclear genomes of angiosperms is much more frequent than previously expected and that the evolutionary impact and mechanisms underlying plant-to-plant HGT remain to be uncovered.
