The independent loss model with ordered insertions for the evolution of CRISPR spacers [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Today, the CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) region within bacterial and archaeal genomes is known to encode an adaptive immune system. We rely on previous results on the evolution of the CRISPR arrays, which led to the ordered independent loss model, introduced by Kupczok and Bollback (2013).

A 3D Genome Atlas of Genetic Variants and Their Pathological Effects in Cancer
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The hierarchical organization of the eukaryotic genome is vital for nuclear function, and disruptions from genetic mutations can alter this 3D architecture. Cataloging thousands of interchromosomal translocations, structural variants, and single nucleotide polymorphisms, their impact on 3D genome organization is revealed. The scoring algorithm, 3DFunc,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study utilized Ss‐STARR‐seq to construct a genome‐wide silencer map of mouse cells and elucidated the fundamental characteristics of these silencers. These silencers exist in a cell‐specific manner and exhibit unique epigenetic modifications. Through functional experiments, we also discovered that these silencers can regulate gene expression and ...

AAVR Expression is Essential for AAV Vector Transduction in Sensory Hair Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Decreased sensitivity to AAV vector transduction in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of adult mice is primarily attributed to reduction of AAVR (Kiaa0319l; Au040320). Knockout of AAVR reduces AAV vector transduction efficiency in both inner hair cells (IHCs) and OHCs in neonatal mice.

Artesunate Inhibits Neointimal Hyperplasia by Promoting IRF4 Associated Macrophage Polarization
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that macrophage interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) improved arterial injury‐induced neointimal hyperplasia by promoting of M2 polarization via up‐regulating krüppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4) in rodent and nonhuman primate models. Notably, artesunate is identified as a potent inducer of IRF4 in macrophages, and proposed as a promising ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study verifies that circRNA‐mTOR exhibits high expression levels in HCC and has a strong correlation with patient prognosis. Mechanistically, circRNA‐mTOR achieves this effect by facilitating the nuclear translocation of RNA‐binding protein (RBP) PSIP1 through specific binding.
