Combined Piggyback Technique and Cavoportal Hemitransposition for Liver Transplant by Jeffrey Campsen, Igal Kam

“…Our center often performs the piggyback technique for the hepatic vein reconstruction, which allows for great access to the recipient vena cava in patients with known complete PVT that may need a CPH preformed to successfully restore flow to the portal system of the donor liver. …”

Analysis of the transcriptional activity of model piggyBac transgenes stably integrated into different loci of the genome of CHO cells in the absence of selection pressure by L. A. Yarinich, A. A. Ogienko, A. V. Pindyurin, E. S. Omelina

“…For this purpose, reporter constructs encoding eGFP under the control of four promoters were stably integrated into the genome of CHO cells using the piggyBac transposon. Each individual transgene contained a unique tag, a DNA barcode, and the resulting polyclonal cell population was cultured for almost a month without any selection. …”

Dynamic co-evolution of transposable elements and the piRNA pathway in African cichlid fishes by Miguel Vasconcelos Almeida, Moritz Blumer, Chengwei Ulrika Yuan, Pío Sierra, Jonathan L. Price, Fu Xiang Quah, Aleksandr Friman, Alexandra Dallaire, Grégoire Vernaz, Audrey L. K. Putman, Alan M. Smith, Domino A. Joyce, Falk Butter, Astrid D. Haase, Richard Durbin, M. Emília Santos, Eric A. Miska

“…Orthology inference revealed strong conservation of TE silencing factors in cichlids, and an expansion of piwil1 genes in Lake Malawi cichlids, likely driven by PiggyBac TEs. The expanded piwil1 copies have signatures of positive selection and retain amino acid residues essential for catalytic activity. …”
