Tet proteins: on track towards DNA demethylation?
Dynamic DNA methylation is a prerequisite for many developmental processes and maintenance of cellular integrity. In mammals however, mechanisms of active DNA demethylation have for long been elusive.

NSUN2 introduces 5-methylcytosines in mammalian mitochondrial tRNAs
Abstract Expression of human mitochondrial DNA is indispensable for proper function of the oxidative phosphorylation machinery. The mitochondrial genome encodes 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs and 11 mRNAs and their post-transcriptional modification constitutes one of the key regulatory steps during mitochondrial gene expression.

Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

Integration of epigenetics into ecotoxicology: insights and fundamental research needs
ABSTRACT Epigenetics refers to heritable changes in genome function that occur without direct alterations to the DNA sequence. A multitude of environmental contaminants can influence the epigenetic marks of a genome. Changes of epigenetic marks including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non‐coding RNAs can induce alterations at the gene ...

Weekly moderate‐to‐vigorous activity (≈6 h) induced a marked increase in ACE promoter methylation in exercised knee‐extensor muscle. In combination with the ACE I/D genotype, ACE methylation contributed to ACE gene activity regulation in ways aligning with the slow‐twitch, aerobic muscle phenotype and its metabolic response to endurance exercise ...

NSUN5 promotes cholangiocarcinoma progression by enhancing GLS mRNA stabilization
Background NSUN5, also known as NOP2/Sun domain 5, is a pivotal RNA methyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of 5-methylcytosine (m5C). Cuproptosis, induced by elevated copper concentrations, is under investigation as a potential therapeutic ...

A comprehensive genomic and proteomic analysis of cervical cancer revealed STK11 and STX3 as a potential biomarkers of chemoradiation resistance. Our study demonstrated EGFR as a therapeutic target, paving the way for precision strategies to overcome treatment failure and the DNA repair pathway as a critical mechanism of resistance.

The versatile thymine DNA‐glycosylase: a comparative characterization of the human, Drosophila and fission yeast orthologs [PDF]
Human thymine‐DNA glycosylase (TDG) is well known to excise thymine and uracil from G·T and G·U mismatches, respectively, and was therefore proposed to play a central role in the cellular defense against genetic mutation through spontaneous deamination ...
