Free energy profile for unwrapping outer superhelical turn of CENP-A nucleosome
Eukaryotic genome is packaged in a nucleus in the form of chromatin. The fundamental structural unit of the chromatin is the protein-DNA complex, nucleosome, where DNA of about 150 bp is wrapped around a histone core almost twice.

DNA gyrase is unique among type II topoisomerases in that its DNA supercoiling activity is unidirectional. The C-terminal domain of the gyrase A subunit (GyrA-CTD) is required for this supercoiling bias.

3D Printing of Conducting Polymer Hydrogels for Electrostimulation‐Assisted Tissue Engineering
This review highlights nanosized inherently conducting polymers (ICPs) as promising ink constituents for 3D printing of conducting hydrogel (CH)‐based electrostimulation (ES) devices. ICP‐based ink formulation, 3D printing, and solidification strategies are discussed, along with the application of 3D‐printed ICP‐based CHs as ES platforms for regulating

ABSTRACT ZraS is a metal sensor integral to ZraPSR, a two‐component signaling system found in enterobacters. It belongs to a family of bifunctional sensor histidine kinases (SHKs) and is speculated to sense zinc‐induced stress on the bacterial envelope.

Hopping into a hot seat: Role of DNA structural features on IS5-mediated gene activation and inactivation under stress. [PDF]
Insertion sequence elements (IS elements) are proposed to play major roles in shaping the genetic and phenotypic landscapes of prokaryotic cells. Recent evidence has raised the possibility that environmental stress conditions increase IS hopping into new

Divergent RNA transcription:A role in promoter unwinding? [PDF]
New approaches using biotinylated-psoralen as a probe for investigating DNA structure have revealed new insights into the relationship between DNA supercoiling, transcription and chromatin compaction.

A pH-dependent structural transition in the homopurine-homopyrimidine tract in superhelical DNA.
We have inserted the 509-bp-long fragment of sea urchin P. miliaris histone gene spacer region into plasmid pUC19. The fragment contains the 60-bp-long homopurine-homopyrimidine tract that is known to be hypersensitive to the S1 endonuclease.

Circularly polarized luminescence from supramolecular assemblies based on small molecules
This minireview outlines the recent advances of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)‐active supramolecular assemblies based on small molecules. It covers fundamental concepts of CPL, typical design strategies of CPL‐active materials—including the assembly of chiral luminophores, the assembly of chiral components and achiral luminophores, and the ...
