Teaching the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology using Jewelry

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2012
”Cracking the Code” is an activity developed to demonstrate the processes of transcription and translation. This hands-on activity helps students understand the relationship between form (base pairing) and function (information storage and transfer) of ...

PARP inhibition and pharmacological ascorbate demonstrate synergy in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.

Factor-4 and 6 compression of cyclotomic subgroups of and

Journal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2010
Bilinear pairings derived from supersingular elliptic curves of embedding degrees 4 and 6 over finite fields 𝔽2m and 𝔽3m, respectively, have been used to implement pairing-based cryptographic protocols.

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of single circulating tumor cells in the follow‐up of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.

Spontaneous formation and base pairing of plausible prebiotic nucleotides in water

Nature Communications, 2016
One of the questions for prebiotic chemistry is the formation of complementary base pairing systems. Here, the authors show that plausible two prebiotic heterocycles can form glycosidic bonds with ribose in water and that these spontaneously base-pair in

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Selective prebiotic conversion of pyrimidine and purine anhydronucleosides into Watson-Crick base-pairing arabino-furanosyl nucleosides in water

Nature Communications, 2018
Arabinonucleic acid (ANA) Watson-Crick base-pair with RNA/DNA and can evolve to display enzyme-like function. Here, the authors now identify a prebiotic pathway that yields the complete set of Watson-Crick base-pairing purine and pyrimidine ANA ...

Change of Base in Bailey Pairs

The Ramanujan Journal, 2000
Versions of Bailey's lemma which change the base from q to q^2 or q^3 are given. Iterates of these versions give many new versions of multisum Rogers-Ramanujan identities. We also prove Melzer's conjectures for the Fermionic forms of the supersymmetric analogues of Virasoro characters.

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Controlling DNA Three‐Way Junction Conformations via Base Pairing

Small Structures
DNA three‐way junctions, the simplest form of branched DNA, are widely used scaffolds in nanotechnology and biotechnology due to their tunable structure and their presumed structural rigidity.
