Target-directed catalytic metallodrugs
Most drugs function by binding reversibly to specific biological targets, and therapeutic effects generally require saturation of these targets.

The RRM domain of poly(A)-specific ribonuclease has a noncanonical binding site for mRNA cap analog recognition [PDF]
The degradation of the poly(A) tail is crucial for posttranscriptional gene regulation and for quality control of mRNA. Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is one of the major mammalian 3’ specific exo-ribonucleases involved in the degradation of the ...

Site-selective artificial ribonuclease using pinpoint RNA activation [PDF]
An acridine residue attached to the end or the inside of a DNA activates the target phosphodiester linkages in complementary RNA. Due to this pinpoint activation, the RNA is site-selectively and efficiently cleaved at these linkages by various free metal ions under mild condition.

Enhanced RNA cleavage within bulge-loops by an artificial ribonuclease [PDF]
Cleavage of phosphodiester bonds by small ribonuclease mimics within different bulge-loops of RNA was investigated. Bulge-loops of different size (1-7 nt) and sequence composition were formed in a 3' terminal fragment of influenza virus M2 RNA (96 nt) by hybridization of complementary oligodeoxynucleotides. Small bulges (up to 4 nt) were readily formed

Identification and analysis of S-genotypes in 23 new pear cultivars [PDF]
[Objective] Taxonomically, pear (Pyrus spp.) belongs to the Rosaceae family, Maloideae subfamily and Pyrus genus. It exhibits a typical gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) mechanism controlled by a single S-locus with multiple alleles.

Design and Synthesis of Peptide-Oligonucleotide Conjugates as Potential Artificial Ribonucleases [PDF]
A series of peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates was synthesized. The peptide fragment was attached to the middle part of DNA sequence. For this purpose the new amidophosphite dC with linker at C5-position was synthesized.

Construction of Ribonuclease-Decorated Artificial Virus-like Capsid by Peptide Self-assembly
Artificial virus-like capsids decorated with ribonuclease S (RNase S) on their exterior were constructed by the self-assembly of β-annulus-S-peptide and the interaction between S-peptide moiety and S-protein.

A novel biological actions acquired by ribonuclease through oligomerization
After a short introduction with some examples of cytotoxic ribonucleases, the importance of natural or artificial dimerization (oligomerization) as a way for a ribonuclease to acquire novel functional properties has been pointed out.

Design of site-selective artificial ribonucleases (aRNases) is one of the most challenging tasks in RNA targeting. Here, we designed and studied oligonucleotide-based aRNases containing multiple imidazole residues in the catalytic part and systematically
