Claspin and the Activated Form of ATR-ATRIP Collaborate in the Activation of Chk1 [PDF]
Claspin is necessary for the ATR-dependent activation of Chk1 in Xenopus egg extracts containing incompletely replicated DNA. ATR possesses a regulatory partner called ATRIP. We have studied the respective roles of ATR-ATRIP and Claspin in the activation

This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Molecular Spiders with Memory [PDF]
Synthetic bio-molecular spiders with "legs" made of single-stranded segments of DNA can move on a surface which is also covered by single-stranded segments of DNA complementary to the leg DNA.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Phase Transition of DNA-Linked Gold Nanoparticle
Melting and hybridization of DNA-capped gold nanoparticle networks are investigated with optical absorption spectroscopy. Single-stranded, 12-base DNA-capped gold nanoparticles are linked with complementary, single-stranded, 24-base linker DNA to form ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

End-repair causes methylation underestimation in cell-free DNA sequencing libraries
Cell-free DNA methylation sequencing provides insight into tissue of origin and chromatin structure. In some workflows, generating libraries includes end-repair.

Generating single-stranded DNA circles with minimal resources
Single-stranded circular oligonucleotides are heavily utilized in rolling circle amplification and rolling circle transcription technologies. Although various reported methodologies are available to synthesize circular, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), the ...

Electronic signature of DNA nucleotides via transverse transport
We report theoretical studies of charge transport in single-stranded DNA in the direction perpendicular to the backbone axis. We find that, if the electrodes which sandwich the DNA have the appropriate spatial width, each nucleotide carries a unique ...

Experimental Progress in Computation by Self-Assembly of DNA Tilings [PDF]
Approaches to DNA-based computing by self-assembly require the use of D. T A nanostructures, called tiles, that have efficient chemistries, expressive computational power: and convenient input and output (I/O) mechanisms.
