Xenogeneic Mitochondrial Transplantation Improves Selected Age‐Associated Phenotypes in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Yak‐derived xenogeneic mitochondrial transplantation improves selected age‐associated phenotypes in mice, enhances mitochondrial functional readouts, and engages host mitochondrial quality‐control pathways. Broad tissue biodistribution, increased ATP production and mtDNA copy number, reduced ROS levels and dysfunctional mitochondria, improved motility ...

Nucleic Acid Therapeutics for “Undruggable” Cancer Targets: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Prospects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nucleic acid therapeutics bypass the structural limitations of conventional drugs by targeting mRNA rather than proteins. This review examines how antisense oligonucleotides, siRNAs, miRNAs, aptamers, and mRNA vaccines intervene against historically undruggable oncoproteins including Ras, MYC, and p53, highlighting mechanistic advances, delivery ...

The amniote-conserved DNA-binding domain of CGGBP1 restricts cytosine methylation of transcription factor binding sites in proximal promoters to regulate gene expression

BMC Genomic Data
CGGBP1 is a GC-rich DNA-binding protein which is important for genomic integrity, gene expression and epigenome maintenance through regulation of CTCF occupancy and cytosine methylation.

Enzymatic approaches and bisulfite sequencing cannot distinguish between 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in DNA

BioTechniques, 2010
DNA cytosine methylation (5mC) is highly abundant in mammalian cells and is associated with transcriptional repression. Recently, hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) has been detected at high levels in certain human cell types; however, its roles are unknown ...

A General Enzymatic Strategy for Site‐Specific Incorporation of Modified Genetic Building Blocks Into DNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Eco‐friendly enzymatic synthesis of high‐fidelity, site‐specifically modified DNA using 3′‐blocked nucleotides for full synthetic control and next‐generation sequencing compatibility. ABSTRACT Methods for site‐specific incorporation of modified DNA building blocks remain limited.

Toward Multi(radio)metalated DNA: Enzymatic Polymerization of Metal‐Chelate‐Modified Deoxyribonucleoside Triphosphates

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This work presents the first enzymatic polymerization of defined metal‐chelator‐modified nucleotides that leverage polymerase fidelity for uniform (radio)metal loading with successful incorporation of five different metals: Ga, In, Tb, Lu, and Y.

ProSiteHunter: A Unified Framework for Sequence‐Based Prediction of Protein‐Nucleic Acid and Protein‐Protein Binding Sites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposed a unified sequence‐based framework for protein binding site prediction, which adopted a tri‐track semantic multi‐source feature fusion strategy to effectively capture diverse macromolecular interaction sites and further improved the accuracy of antibody‐antigen interaction prediction.

Unraveling G‐Quadruplex and i‐Motif Coexistence Within a Double‐Stranded DNA

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The relative thermodynamic profiles of G‐quadruplex (G4), i‐Motif (iM), and the duplex counterpart tune the simultaneous G4 and iM formation within a double‐stranded (ds) DNA. ABSTRACT DNA can transiently fold into variable arrangements, which are expected to exploit regulatory functions. Guanine‐rich sequences can fold into G‐quadruplexes (G4s), while

The antimalarial and cytotoxic drug cryptolepine intercalates into DNA at cytosine-cytosine sites

Nature Structural Biology, 2001
Cryptolepine, a naturally occurring indoloquinoline alkaloid used as an antimalarial drug in Central and Western Africa, has been found to bind to DNA in a formerly unknown intercalation mode. Evidence from competition dialysis assays demonstrates that cryptolepine is able to bind CG-rich sequences containing nonalternating CC sites.

Targeting Dnmt3a/m5C/RelA Axis Attenuates Microglia Inflammatory Response and Improves Postoperative Recovery in Chronic Compressive Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A pro‐inflammatory microglial subset persists after decompression in chronic compressive cervical spinal cord injury and shows enhanced Dnmt3a‐driven m5C signaling. By stabilizing RelA mRNA, this axis sustains NF‐κB activation and postoperative neuroinflammation.
