Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Mapping the topography of a protein energy landscape [PDF]
, 2015 Protein energy landscapes are highly complex, yet the vast majority of states within them tend to be invisible to experimentalists. Here, using site-directed mutagenesis and exploiting the simplicity of tandem-repeat protein structures, we delineate a ...

Subpar reporting of pre‐analytical variables in RNA‐focused blood plasma studies
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Pre‐analytical variables strongly influence the analysis of extracellular RNA (cell‐free RNA; exRNA) derived from blood plasma. Their reporting is essential to allow interpretation and replication of results. By evaluating 200 exRNA studies, we pinpoint a lack of reporting pre‐analytical variables associated with blood collection, plasma preparation ...

Stimulation of direct-repeat recombination by RNA polymerase III transcription
DNA Repair, 2009 Eukaryotic cells have to regulate the progression and integrity of DNA replication forks through concomitantly transcribed genes. A transcription-dependent increase of recombination within protein-coding and ribosomal genes of eukaryotic cells is well documented.

Air investigation of some alternative methods to agrobacterium and protoplast transformation for introducing exogenous genes into plants, based on the use of pollen as a vector [PDF]
, 1987 Some of the problems involved in the search for alternative plant transformation vectors have been examined. In particular the use of pregerminated pollen as a direct transformation vector has been investigated.
