A pairwise distance distribution correction (DDC) algorithm to eliminate blinking-caused artifacts in SMLM. [PDF]

Nat Methods, 2021
Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) relies on the blinking behavior of a fluorophore, which is the stochastic switching between fluorescent and dark states. Blinking creates multiple localizations belonging to the same fluorophore, confounding

Prevalence of DDC genotypes in patients with aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency and in silico prediction of structural protein changes.

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2023
Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting the biosynthesis of dopamine, a precursor of both norepinephrine and epinephrine, and serotonin.

Tissue-specific Grb10/Ddc insulator drives allelic architecture for cardiac development

Molecules and Cells, 2022
Allele-specific expression of imprinted gene clusters is governed by gametic DNA methylation at master regulators called imprinting control regions (ICRs).

Spectrum of DDC variants causing aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency and pathogenicity interpretation using ACMG-AMP/ACGS recommendations.

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2022
Pathogenic variants in dopa decarboxylase (DDC), the gene encoding the aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) enzyme, lead to a severe deficiency of neurotransmitters, resulting in neurological, neuromuscular, and behavioral manifestations clinically

In Arabidopsis thaliana Cd differentially impacts on hormone genetic pathways in the methylation defective ddc mutant compared to wild type

Scientific Reports, 2021
DNA methylation plays an important role in modulating plant growth plasticity in response to stress, but mechanisms involved in such control need further investigation.

Preclinical In Vitro Studies with 3D Spheroids to Evaluate Cu(DDC)2 Containing Liposomes for the Treatment of Neuroblastoma

Pharmaceutics, 2021
Preclinical in vitro studies of drug candidates for anticancer therapy are generally conducted on well-established 2D cell models. Unfortunately, these models are unable to mimic the properties of in vivo tumors.

Revised Exon Structure of l-DOPA Decarboxylase (DDC) Reveals Novel Splice Variants Associated with Colorectal Cancer Progression

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly heterogenous malignancy with an increased mortality rate. Aberrant splicing is a typical characteristic of CRC, and several studies support the prognostic value of particular transcripts in this malignancy.

L-Dopa-Decarboxylase (DDC) Is a Positive Prognosticator for Breast Cancer Patients and Epinephrine Regulates Breast Cancer Cell (MCF7 and T47D) Growth In Vitro According to Their Different Expression of Gi- Protein- Coupled Receptors

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
A coherence between thyroid dysfunction and breast cancer incidence exists. Thyroid hormone metabolites bind to TAAR1 (trace amine-associated receptor 1) and through that modulate the serotonergic and dopaminergic system.
