Dual native G‐quadruplex folding is associated with chromatin looping at the MYC locus

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BG4‐detectable G‐quadruplex (G4) in HaCaT and NHEK keratinocytes identified folded and unfolded G4s enriched at promoters/TSSs and active enhancers, whereas unfolded G4s also overlapped weak/poised enhancers. At MYC–PVT1, 3C‐qPCR detected enhancer–promoter looping only when G4s were simultaneously folded at both regulatory elements under native ...

Plant-RRBS, a bisulfite and next-generation sequencing-based methylome profiling method enriching for coverage of cytosine positions

BMC Plant Biology, 2017
Background Cytosine methylation in plant genomes is important for the regulation of gene transcription and transposon activity. Genome-wide methylomes are studied upon mutation of the DNA methyltransferases, adaptation to environmental stresses or during

Dactolisib outperforms Rapamycin in potentiating apoptosis induced by XPO1, Bcl‐2 and Mcl‐1 blockade in preclinical glioblastoma models

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The PAM pathway and its impact on cellular metabolism. Color‐coded key symbols represent Rapamycin (R, orange, targeting mTOR) and Dactolisib (D, green, targeting PI3K/mTOR), indicating their sites of action. Created with BioRenders.com. Glioblastoma resists therapy through interconnected survival programs.

An EPR study on cytosine irradiated [PDF]

, 2010
In this study, paramagnetic centers over the cytosine were formed by photolysis then these centers were investigated using EPR method. EPR signals were not recorded from non-irradiated the cytosine, but irradiated polycrystalline exhibited complex EPR ...

Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

Compact 9dBEs Enable Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Mammalian Cells and In Vivo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a compact type II‐D system, the Cas9d‐based platform holds great potential for in vivo applications. Through rational engineering, its derived base editors (9dBEs) enable efficient disease modeling while facilitating single‐vector AAV delivery for in vivo genome editing. These miniature tools offer a robust strategy for basic research and biomedical

NICE: A Two‐Step Non‐Invasive Framework for Embryo cfDNA Read Enrichment and Quality Assessment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The non‐invasive NICE framework, built on an ensemble stacking machine learning model, prioritizes embryos by analyzing cell‐free DNA from spent culture medium. By integrating multimodal signals, including genomic and epigenetic profiles, this automated approach standardizes morphological assessment without human bias, paving the way for more precise ...

Discovery of Bacterial Deaminases That Convert 5-Fluoroisocytosine Into 5-Fluorouracil

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Cytosine is one of the four letters of a standard genetic code, found both in DNA and in RNA. This heterocyclic base can be converted into uracil upon the action of the well-known cytosine deaminase.

Acceleration of the Deamination of Cytosine through Photo-Crosslinking

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Herein, we report the major factor for deamination reaction rate acceleration, i.e., hydrophilicity, by using various 5-substituted target cytosines and by carrying out deamination at high temperatures.
