Identification of the zinc finger 216 (ZNF216) in human carcinoma cells. A potential regulator of EGFR activity [PDF]
Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR), a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) proteins, is aberrantly expressed or deregulated in tumors and plays pivotal roles in cancer onset and metastatic progression.

Deoxyribonuclease 1 reduces pathogenic effects of cigarette smoke exposure in the lung
Our aim was to investigate if deoxyribonuclease (DNase) 1 is a potential therapeutic agent to reduce pathogenic effects of cigarette smoke exposure in the lung. Cigarette smoke causes protease imbalance with excess production of proteases, which is a key

The genome of a tortoise herpesvirus (testudinid herpesvirus 3) has a novel structure and contains a large region that is not required for replication in vitro or virulence in vivo [PDF]
Testudinid herpesvirus 3 (TeHV-3) is the causative agent of a lethal disease affecting several tortoise species. The threat that this virus poses to endangered animals is focusing efforts on characterizing its properties, in order to enable the ...

Augmenting light coverage for photosynthesis through YFP-enhanced charge separation at the Rhodobacter sphaeroides reaction centre. [PDF]
Photosynthesis uses a limited range of the solar spectrum, so enhancing spectral coverage could improve the efficiency of light capture. Here, we show that a hybrid reaction centre (RC)/yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) complex accelerates photosynthetic ...

The spinal muscular atrophy gene product regulates actin dynamics
SMN regulates actin dynamics via binding to PFN2a and interacting with F‐ and G‐actin. Thus, two populations, SMN/PFN2a/actin and SMN/actin are relevant for functional actin dynamics. In SMA, SMN protein levels are reduced, PFN2a protein homeostasis becomes dysregulated and F‐actin formation was increased.

Site-Specific Methylation of Adenine in the Nuclear Genome of a Eucaryote, \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena thermophila\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
DNA in the polyploid macronucleus of the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila contains the modified base N6-methyladenine. We identified two GATC sites which are methylated in most or all of the 45 copies of the macronuclear genome.
