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 ...

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 ...

Statistical analysis on detecting recombination sites in DNA-beta satellites associated with the old world geminiviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Although an exchange of genetic information by recombination plays an important role in the evolution of viruses, it is not clear how it generates diversity.

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

Circular Dichroism of Chiral Molecules in DNA-Assembled Plasmonic Hotspots. [PDF]

open access: yesACS Nano, 2018
The chiral state of a molecule plays a crucial role in molecular recognition and biochemical reactions. Because of this and owing to the fact that most modern drugs are chiral, the sensitive and reliable detection of the chirality of molecules is of ...

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 ...

Small Circular DNA Molecules as Triangular Scaffolds for the Growth of 3D Single Crystals

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
DNA is a very useful molecule for the programmed self-assembly of 3D (three dimension) nanoscale structures. The organised 3D DNA assemblies and crystals enable scientists to conduct studies for many applications such as enzymatic catalysis, biological ...

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 ...

Analysis of a circular code model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A circular code has been identified in the protein (coding) genes of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes by using a statistical method called Trinucleotide Frequency method (TF method) [Arquès & Michel, (1996) J.Theor. Biol. 182, 45-58].

Unfolding of Nanoconfined Circular DNA [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Nanofluidic channels have become a versatile tool to manipulate single DNA molecules. They allow investigation of confined single DNA molecules from a fundamental polymer physics perspective as well as for example in DNA barcoding techniques.Circular DNA is of interest since it is found in many biologically relevant contexts, such as bacterial plasmids,
