Genetic editing of HBV DNA by monodomain human APOBEC3 cytidine deaminases and the recombinant nature of APOBEC3G. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA is vulnerable to editing by human cytidine deaminases of the APOBEC3 (A3A-H) family albeit to much lower levels than HIV cDNA.

Epigenetic Dysregulation of Somatostatin Receptors (SSTR) 1–5 and Therapeutic Implications in Neuroendocrine and Non‐Neuroendocrine Malignancies

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Somatostatin receptors (SSTR) mediate the antiproliferative, antisecretory, and proapoptotic effects of somatostatin and its synthetic analogs. Their surface expression on neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cells is required for somatostatin analog therapy and radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT).

A role for Tau protein in maintaining ribosomal DNA stability and cytidine deaminase-deficient cell survival

Nature Communications, 2017
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) deficiency leads to genome instability. Here the authors find a synthetic lethal interaction between CDA and the microtubule-associated protein Tau deficiencies, and report that Tau depletion affects rRNA synthesis ...

Human APOBEC1 cytidine deaminase edits HBV DNA

Retrovirology, 2009
Retroviruses, hepadnaviruses, and some other retroelements are vulnerable to editing by single stranded DNA cytidine deaminases. Of the eleven human genes encoding such enzymes, eight have demonstrable enzymatic activity.

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...

Microbiome—pancreatic cancer crosstalk: From tumor biology to therapeutic intervention

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The intratumoral microbiome acts as a critical regulator in pancreatic cancer progression and therapeutic resistance. This comprehensive review delineates the origins of pancreatic microbes, elucidates their multifaceted mechanisms in driving immune suppression, metabolic reprogramming, and stromal desmoplasia, and highlights the clinical potential of ...

An enzymatic assay for high-throughput screening of cytidine-producing microbial strains.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Cytidine is an industrially useful precursor for the production of antiviral compounds and a variety of industrial compounds. Interest in the microbial production of cytidine has grown recently and high-throughput screening of cytidine over-producers is ...

Control of Human Anelloviruses by Cytosine to Uracil Genome Editing

mSphere, 2022
Anelloviruses are the most common viruses infecting humans. Every human carries a nonpathogenic personal anellovirus virome (anellome), yet it is unknown which mechanisms contribute to its stability.
