Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Genetic engineering and cloning [PDF]
, 2015 Genetic engineering can also be used to remove genetic material from the target organism, creating a gene knockout organism. The most commercialised GMO's are insect resistant and/or herbicide tolerant crop plants. Organisms are genetically engineered to

67 ORGAN WEIGHT VARIATION IN CLONED PIGS [PDF]
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2004 Previously, we compared adult clones and naturally bred control females using a series of physiological and genetic parameters and found considerable variation in certain traits in clones. In order to more fully understand this clonal variation we examined the organ weight differences among a group of clones from a single litter.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

The Implications of Human Cloning [PDF]
, 2016 The Dangers of Cloning There have been many debates since the 1800s discussing of the dangers of cloning. Cloning is the process of duplicating genetic material from one organism to create a new organism.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Simple, Directional cDNA Cloning for In Situ Transcript Hybridization Screens
BioTechniques, 2001 Here, we describe a suppression PCR-based method for directional cloning of randomly primed cDNAs from small quantities of tissue. Synthesis of the first cDNA strand is conducted on oligonucleotide-coated magnetic beads. Synthesis of the second strand is
