Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Recent Acquisition of Functional m6A RNA Demethylase Domain in Orchid Ty3/Gypsy Elements [PDF]
, 2022 [EN] Long terminal repeats (LTR) retrotransposons are transposable elements (TEs) representing major components of most plant genomes. The fixation of additional conserved protein domains in their genomes is considered a rare event in the course of their

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Radiotherapy effectively eradicates tumor cells but can also trigger pyroptotic damage in vascular endothelial cells. This study investigates the role of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) in radiation‐induced endothelial injury, aiming to provide mechanistic insights for optimizing radiotherapy.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.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
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.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 ...

A human tRNA methyltransferase 9-like protein prevents tumour growth by regulating LIN9 and HIF1-α [PDF]
, 2012 Emerging evidence points to aberrant regulation of translation as a driver of cell transformation in cancer. Given the direct control of translation by tRNA modifications, tRNA modifying enzymes may function as regulators of cancer progression.

Recent Advances on DNA Base Flipping: A General Mechanism for Writing, Reading, and Erasing DNA Modifications [PDF]
, 2022 The modification of DNA bases is a classic hallmark of epigenetics. Four forms of modified cytosine-5-methylcytosine, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-formylcytosine, and 5-carboxylcytosine-have been discovered in eukaryotic DNA. In addition to cytosine carbon-
