The workshop was held in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, from 27 February to 2 March 2018. The workshop was organized into three separate sessions. The first two days of the workshop consisted of the Trinational Trade Session. The following two days included two concurrent meetings: a Law Enforcement Closed Session, and an IUCN Red List Assessment Session. The Trinational Trade Session included 16 presentations in nine topics related to the conservation and sustainable trade in North American species of tarantulas that are included in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.

  • Capture of a Functionally Active Methyl-Cpg Binding Domain by an Arthropod Retrotransposon Family
    Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on September 23, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Research Capture of a functionally active methyl-CpG binding domain by an arthropod retrotransposon family Alex de Mendoza,1,2 Jahnvi Pflueger,1,2 and Ryan Lister1,2 1Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence in Plant Energy Biology, School of Molecular Sciences, The University of Western Australia, Perth, Western Australia, 6009, Australia; 2Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research, Perth, Western Australia, 6009, Australia The repressive capacity of cytosine DNA methylation is mediated by recruitment of silencing complexes by methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) proteins. Despite MBD proteins being associated with silencing, we discovered that a family of arthropod Copia retrotransposons have incorporated a host-derived MBD. We functionally show how retrotransposon- encoded MBDs preferentially bind to CpG-dense methylated regions, which correspond to transposable element regions of the host genome, in the myriapod Strigamia maritima. Consistently, young MBD-encoding Copia retrotransposons (CopiaMBD) accumulate in regions with higher CpG densities than other LTR-retrotransposons also present in the genome. This would suggest that retrotransposons use MBDs to integrate into heterochromatic regions in Strigamia, avoiding poten- tially harmful insertions into host genes. In contrast, CopiaMBD insertions in the spider Stegodyphus dumicola genome dispro- portionately accumulate in methylated gene bodies compared with other spider LTR-retrotransposons. Given that transposons are not actively targeted by DNA methylation in the spider genome, this distribution bias would also support a role for MBDs in the integration process. Together, these data show that retrotransposons can co-opt host-derived epige- nome readers, potentially harnessing the host epigenome landscape to advantageously tune the retrotransposition process.

The catalogue lists 216 valid species belonging to 41 genera. The following data are supplied for each species: a range character- istic, all available records from northern Asia with approximate coordinates (mapped), all misidentifications and doubtful records (not mapped), habitat preferences, references to available biological data, taxonomic notes on species where necessary, references to lists of regional fauna and to catalogues of general importance. 24 species are excluded from the list of the Northern Asian salticids. 5 species names are newly synonymized: Evarcha pseudolaetabunda Peng & Xie, 1994 with E. mongolica Danilov & Logunov, 1994; He- liophanus mongolicus Schenkel, 1953 with H. baicalensis Kulczyñski, 1895; Neon rostra- tus Seo, 1995 with N. minutus ¯abka, 1985; Salticus potanini Schenkel, 1963 with S.

Stadler1;3;5;7;8;9 · Sonja J. Prohaska2;3;5;6 Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract DNA methylation is a crucial, abundant mechanism of gene regula- tion in vertebrates. It is less prevalent in many other metazoan organisms and completely absent in some key model species, such as D. melanogaster and C. elegans. We report here a comprehensive study of the presence and absence of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) in 138 Ecdysozoa, covering Arthropoda, Nematoda, Priapulida, Onychophora, and Tardigrada. Three of these phyla have not been investigated for the presence of DNA methylation before. We observe that the loss of individual DNMTs independently occurred multiple times across ecdysozoan phyla. We computationally predict the presence of DNA methylation based on CpG rates in coding sequences using an imple- mentation of Gaussian Mixture Modelling, MethMod. Integrating both analysis we predict two previously unknown losses of DNA methylation in Ecdysozoa, one within Chelicerata (Mesostigmata) and one in Tardigrada. In the early- branching Ecdysozoa Priapulus caudatus we predict the presence of a full set of DNMTs and the presence of DNA
