PLoS ONE, 2017 The effect of S-substitution on the O6 guanine site of a 13-mer DNA duplex containing a G:T mismatch is studied using molecular dynamics. The structure, dynamic evolution and hydration of the S-substituted duplex are compared with those of a normal ...

Recognition of Mismatched Base Pairs in DNA [PDF]
Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 2009 Abstract Mismatch binding ligand (MBL) selectively binds to mismatched base pairs with discrimination of the nucleotide bases composing the mismatch. This review focuses on the inside story regarding the molecular design of MBL and its function, and potential application in genomic science.

Detection of the C-C mismatched base pair by small ligands [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Symposium Series, 2003 We synthesized 2-aminonaphthyridine derivatives that specifically bind to cytosine-cytosine (C-C) mismatch. The binding of ligands was verified by observing an increase of melting temperature for 11-mer duplexes containing a mismatch in the presence of ligands.

Characteristic mutations induced in the small intestine of Msh2-knockout gpt delta mice
Genes and Environment, 2021 Background Base pair mismatches in genomic DNA can result in mutagenesis, and consequently in tumorigenesis. To investigate how mismatch repair deficiency increases mutagenicity under oxidative stress, we examined the type and frequency of mutations ...

Imidazole-imidazole pair as a minor groove recognition motif for T:G mismatched base pairs [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1999 The T:G mismatched base pair is associated with many genetic mutations. Understanding its biological consequences may be aided by studying the structural perturbation of DNA caused by a T:G base pair and by specific probing of the mismatch using small molecular ligands.

Selective Preference of Parallel DNA Triplexes Is Due to the Disruption of Hoogsteen Hydrogen Bonds Caused by the Severe Nonisostericity between the G*GC and T*AT Triplets. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Implications of DNA, RNA and RNA.DNA hybrid triplexes in diverse biological functions, diseases and therapeutic applications call for a thorough understanding of their structure-function relationships. Despite exhaustive studies mechanistic rationale for

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Intratumour heterogeneity complicates precision management of advanced endometrial cancer. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a minimally invasive strategy to capture tumor evolution and therapeutic resistance. Here, we compare tumor‐agnostic NGS with tumor‐informed ddPCR, outlining their relative sensitivity, concordance, and clinical implications ...

Interpreting the effects of DNA polymerase variants at the structural level
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Using MAVISp and molecular dynamics simulations, we analyzed over 60 000 missense variants in POLE and POLD1 from ClinVar, COSMIC, cBioPortal, and saturation mutagenesis. Identified mechanistic indicators, including stability, binding, and long‐range, enable structural interpretation, providing ACMG‐like evidence for possible reclassification of VUS ...
