TALEs from a spring--superelasticity of Tal effector protein structures. [PDF]
Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) are DNA-related proteins that recognise and bind specific target sequences to manipulate gene expression.

Specific DNA-RNA Hybrid Recognition by TAL Effectors
The transcription activator-like (TAL) effector targets specific host promoter through its central DNA-binding domain, which comprises multiple tandem repeats (TALE repeats).

Role of the Discriminator Sequence in the Supercoiling Sensitivity of Bacterial Promoters
DNA supercoiling acts as a global transcriptional regulator that contributes to the rapid transcriptional response of bacteria to many environmental changes.

Stress-induced duplex destabilization (SIDD) profiles for T7 bacteriophage promoters [PDF]
The functioning of DNA regulatory regions rely primarily on their physicochemical and structural properties but not on nucleotide sequences, i.e. genetic text.

Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins coordinate nucleus‐organelle communication by modulating RNA metabolism within chloroplasts and mitochondria. This review highlights how they control critical processes like photosynthesis, seed development, fertility restoration, and stress survival in crops, and explores their potential as programmable tools for RNA ...

This review surveys recent advances in light‐controlled peptide self‐assembly for the design of smart soft matter. It summarizes the underlying physicochemical principles, including thermodynamic control for reshaping free‐energy landscapes, and nonequilibrium control to produce kinetically trapped states and dissipative structures.

Architectural Organization of Dinoflagellate Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes
Dinoflagellates have some of the largest genome sizes, but lack architectural nucleosomes. Their liquid crystalline chromosomes (LCCs) are the only non-architectural protein-mediated chromosome packaging systems, having high degrees of DNA superhelicity,

A new family of intrinsically disordered proteins: structural characterization of the major phasin PhaF from Pseudomonas putida KT2440. [PDF]
Phasins are intracellular polyhydroxyalkanoat4e (PHA)-associated proteins involved in the stabilization of these bacterial carbon storage granules. Despite its importance in PHA metabolism and regulation, only few reports have focused so far on the ...

Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) programs persistent podocyte developmental injury and adult glomerulosclerosis. Mechanistically, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binds the miR‐135a‐5p promoter and recruits the histone acetyltransferase p300, increasing promoter histone acetylation and sustaining miR‐135a‐5p expression. Elevated miR‐135a‐5p suppresses

X-ray scattering from randomly oriented superhelices. Circular superhelical DNA
The scattering functions of randomly oriented filaments of finite length exhibiting two orders of helicity have been calculated. It is shown to a good approximation that each order scatters as if present alone as a first order helix of the same contour ...
