Screening for inhibitor of episomal DNA identified dicumarol as a hepatitis B virus inhibitor.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Currently, there is no available therapy to eradicate hepatitis B virus (HBV) in chronically infected individuals. This is due to the difficulty in eliminating viral covalently closed circular (ccc) DNA, which is central to the gene expression and ...

Helix untwisting and bubble formation in circular DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The base pair fluctuations and helix untwisting are examined for a circular molecule. A realistic mesoscopic model including twisting degrees of freedom and bending of the molecular axis is proposed.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Evolution of a highly functional circular DNA aptamer in serum

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
Circular DNA aptamers are powerful candidates for therapeutic applications given their dramatically enhanced biostability. Herein we report the first effort to evolve circular DNA aptamers that bind a human protein directly in serum, a complex biofluid ...

Topoisomerase 2 is dispensable for the replication and segregation of small yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
DNA topoisomerases are thought to play a critical role in transcription, replication and recombination as well as in the condensation and segregation of sister duplexes during cell division.

Conformation of Circular DNA in 2 Dimensions

open access: yes, 2008
The conformation of circular DNA molecules of various lengths adsorbed in a 2D conformation on a mica surface is studied. The results confirm the conjecture that the critical exponent $\nu$ is topologically invariant and equal to the SAW value (in the ...

Mitochondrial DNA replication in sea urchin oocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replicative intermediates from Strongylocentrotus purpuratus oocytes were isolated by ethidium bromide-CsCl density gradient centrifugation and examined by electron microscopy after formamide spreading.

Circular DNA in Isolated Chromoplasts

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1974
Abstract Flower chromoplasts of Narcissus pseudonarcissus have been isolated in high purity and inte­ grity by a new procedure. From these chromoplasts circular DNA molecules in supercoiled form have been isolated and demonstrated by electron microscopy to have a contour length of about 44 μm (molecular weight about 92 x 106 daltons)

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Cytoplasmic DNA in the unfertilized sea urchin egg: Physical properties of circular mitochondrial DNA and the occurrence of catenated forms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
The mitochondrial DNA in the unfertilized egg of the sea urchin Lytechinus pictus is present in an amount approximately seven times that of the haploid nuclear DNA.(1) The mitochondrial DNA has a higher buoyant density than the nuclear DNA and consists ...
