Exploiting circular DNA [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
Using circular DNA to measure the degree of unwinding of the double helix caused by ligand binding was one of the first applications of the specific properties of circular DNA. The approach is conceptually simple. Consider a nicked circular DNA of N base pairs that is bound to molecules of a ligand so that the ratio of bound ligands to base pairs is ...

Characterization of the DNA binding activity of structural protein VP1 from chicken anaemia virus

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2018
Background Chicken anaemia virus (CAV) is commonly found in poultry. VP1 is the sole structural protein of CAV, which is the major component responsible for capsid assembly. The CAV virion consists of the VP1 protein and a viral genome. However, there is

Single-stranded circular DNA theranostics

open access: yesTheranostics, 2022
The past decade has witnessed the blossom of nucleic acid therapeutics and diagnostics (theranostics). Unlike conventional small molecule medicines or protein biologics, nucleic acid theranostics have characteristic features such as the intrinsic ability as "information drugs" to code and execute genetic and theranostic information, ready ...

ATAC-seq identifies thousands of extrachromosomal circular DNA in cancer and cell lines

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
EccDNAs are hiding in plain sight in conventional ATAC-seq data. Extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are somatically mosaic and contribute to intercellular heterogeneity in normal and tumor cells.

Cressdnaviricota: a Virus Phylum Unifying Seven Families of Rep-Encoding Viruses with Single-Stranded, Circular DNA Genomes

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2020
Eukaryotic single-stranded (ss) DNA viruses are classified into ten families (Table 1) but many remain 38 unclassified (1, 2).….

Circular mitochondrial DNA: A Geant4-DNA user application for evaluating radiation-induced damage in circular mitochondrial DNA

open access: yesJournal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2017
Background: The aim of this study was to develop a nucleotide geometrical model of the circular mitochondrial DNA (mt-DNA) structure using Geant4-DNA toolkit to predict the radiation-induced damages such as single-strand breaks (SSB), double-strand ...

Construction of DNA hemicatenanes from two small circular DNA molecules. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
DNA hemicatenanes, one of the simplest possible junctions between two double stranded DNA molecules, have frequently been mentioned in the literature for their possible function in DNA replication, recombination, repair, and organization in chromosomes ...

BmCPV-Derived Circular DNA vcDNA-S7 Mediated by Bombyx mori Reverse Transcriptase (RT) Regulates BmCPV Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Circular DNAs derived from single-stranded RNA viruses play important roles in counteracting viral infection. However, whether double-stranded RNA viruses generate functional circular DNAs is still unknown. Using circDNA sequencing, divergent PCR, DNA in

Efficient Arrangement of the Replication Fork Trap for In Vitro Propagation of Monomeric Circular DNA in the Chromosome-Replication Cycle Reaction

open access: yesLife, 2018
Propagation of genetic information is a fundamental prerequisite for living cells. We recently developed the replication cycle reaction (RCR), an in vitro reaction for circular DNA propagation, by reconstitution of the replication cycle of the ...
