An Alternative Platform for Protein Expression Using an Innate Whole Expression Module from Metagenomic DNA

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Many integrated gene clusters beyond a single genetic element are commonly trapped as the result of promoter traps in (meta)genomic DNA libraries. Generally, a single element, which is mainly the promoter, is deduced from the resulting gene clusters and ...

RNA Sequencing Resolves Cryptic Pathogenic Variants in Mitochondrial Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial diseases are the most common inherited metabolic disorders, characterized by pronounced clinical and genetic heterogeneity that complicates molecular diagnosis. Although DNA‐based sequencing approaches have become standard in genetic testing, up to half of patients remain without a definitive diagnosis.

Rule-based Modeling of Transcriptional Attenuation at the Tryptophan Operon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Transcriptional attenuation at E.coli\u27s tryptophan operon is a prime example of RNA-mediated gene regulation. In this paper, we present a discrete stochastic model for this phenomenon based on chemical reactions. Our model is compact and intelligible,

A whole-genome analysis of premature termination codons

open access: yesGenomics, 2011
We sequenced the genomes of ten unrelated individuals and identified heterozygous stop codon-gain variants in protein-coding genes: we then sequenced their transcriptomes and assessed the expression levels of the stop codon-gain alleles. An ANOVA showed statistically significant differences between their expression levels (p=4×10(-16)). This difference

Mutation of a Termination Codon Affects src Initiation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 1984
The four Rous sarcoma virus messages gag, gag-pol, env, and src all derive from a full-length RNA precursor. All four messages contain the same 5' leader segment. Three of the messages, gag, gag-pol, and env, use an AUG present in this leader to initiate translation. The src AUG initiation codon lies 3' of the leader segment, 90 bases downstream of the

An Engineered Living Material With Pro‐Angiogenic Activity Inducible by Near‐Infrared Light

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
NIR‐responsive engineered living materials (ELMs) for controlled angiogenesis: Near‐infrared (800 nm) light activates engineered probiotic bacteria within alginate‐based living materials to secrete a blood vessel‐regenerating protein. The released protein promotes pro‐angiogenic effects in endothelial networks and chick chorioallantoic membranes.

Mechanism of premature translation termination on a sense codon [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Accurate translation termination by release factors (RFs) is critical for the integrity of cellular proteomes. Premature termination on sense codons, for example, results in truncated proteins, whose accumulation could be detrimental to the cell. Nevertheless, some sense codons are prone to triggering premature termination, but the structural basis for

Factors targeting MED12 to drive tumorigenesis? [version 2; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2018
Mediator Complex Subunit 12 (MED12) is part of the transcriptional preinitiation machinery. Mutations of its gene predominantly occur in two types of highly frequent benign tumors, uterine leiomyomas and fibroadenomas of the breast, where they apparently

Plant‐Produced Viral Nanoparticles Decorated with Nanobodies Against HER2 Improve Retention and Recruitment of Immune Cells in Solid Tumors

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Potato virus X is a filamentous RNA plant virus that can be engineered into a molecular tool for cancer therapy. We produced genetically‐encoded virus‐derived nanoparticles decorated with nanobodies targeting cancer cell receptors, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2).

Cell-free prediction of protein expression costs for growing cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Translating heterologous proteins places significant burden on host cells, consuming expression resources leading to slower cell growth and productivity.
