Differences in deoxycytidine metabolism in mouse and rat [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1983
Bone-marrow macrophages from both rat and mouse release deoxycytidine derived from phagocytosed nuclei. Mouse plasma contains no detectable deoxycytidine (less than 0.1 microM), whereas the concentration in rat plasma is 18 microM. Enzyme assays of tissue extracts show that both mouse and rat spleen contain high deoxycytidine kinase activity.

Loss of E3 Ubiquitin Ligase RINES via CpG Methylation Relieves Suppression of STAT3 and MYC, Facilitating Multiple Tumorigeneses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated protein modifications drive tumorigenesis. RINES, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, represses tumor cell proliferation and metastasis by facilitating RING domain‐dependent, ubiquitin–proteasome‐mediated degradation of STAT3 and MYC, which consequently restrains cancer stemness and oncogenic progression.

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Well‐Defined α(2,8)‐ and α(2,9)‐Linked Oligosialosides

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Well‐defined α(2,8)‐ and α(2,9)‐linked oligosialic acids of different lengths can be prepared by employing recombinant bacterial polysialyltransferases in combination with chemically modified CMP‐Neu5Ac derivatives. After transfer, a sialoside is formed bearing an artificial entity, which blocks further glycosylation.

The Role of BMP7 in the Proliferation of Hu Sheep Dermal Papilla Cells Is Influenced by DNA Methylation

Animals
Previous studies have shown that the BMP7 gene is differentially expressed in Hu sheep lamb skin of different pattern types, and its expression level is significantly correlated with hair follicle indices of different pattern types, but the molecular ...

NAT10‐Mediated ac4C Modification of circANKRD12 Reprograms the Tumor Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NAT10‐dependent acetylation of circANKRD12 drives translation of the circANKRD12_354aa protein, which binds HDAC2 to stabilize c‐Myc via deubiquitination, promoting multiple myeloma (MM) cell proliferation. Concurrently, the circANKRD12‐HDAC2 axis suppresses H3ac‐mediated transcription of IFN‐γ, TNF‐α, and GZMB in NK cells, leading to NK cell ...

An Enzymatic Platform for Late‐Stage (Radio)isotope Labelling of Oligonucleotides With Methyltransferases

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
State‐of‐the‐art synthesis of radiolabelled oligonucleotides involves multi‐step synthesis with high costs, extended timelines and significant radioactive waste generation. Herein, a dual‐methyltransferase platform enables late‐stage, site‐specific labelling, overcoming these limitations through reduced costs, faster turnaround and minimal radioactive ...

Newly synthesized APOBEC3G is incorporated into HIV virions, inhibited by HIV RNA, and subsequently activated by RNase H. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2007
APOBEC3G (A3G) is a potent antiretroviral deoxycytidine deaminase that, when incorporated into HIV virions, hypermutates nascent viral DNA formed during reverse transcription.

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.

Glutathione‐Responsive Acyl‐Modifications for Targeted RNA Decaging and Prolonged Protein Synthesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The self‐immolation of disulfide‐based mRNA modifications in response to endogenous glutathione (GSH) promotes a gradual release of translatable mRNA within the cell, leading to improved nuclease resistance, tunable release properties, and a significant increase (up to 600%) of target protein production over time. This strategy offers an exciting proof

DNA Methylation Modulates Nociceptive Sensitization after Incision. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
DNA methylation is a key epigenetic mechanism controlling DNA accessibility and gene expression. Blockade of DNA methylation can significantly affect pain behaviors implicated in neuropathic and inflammatory pain.
