Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1981 In the presence of optimal concentrations of Mg2+, rates of activated (gapped) DNA-directed DNA synthesis by purified mammalian type C retroviral DNA polymerases are stimulated greater than 10-fold by the polyamines spermine and spermidine. Such stimulation was not observed using either similar concentrations of the polyamines cadaverine or putrescine ...

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

The Role OF DNA Polymerases in Carcinogenesis
Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Qum, 2016 Background and Objectives: The major role of various types of DNA polymerases is genome replication. However, DNA polymerases are also necessary to establish the accuracy, efficiency of replication, repairing process, and consequently decrease in ...

Tyrosines involved in the activity of φ29 single-stranded DNA binding protein.
PLoS ONE, 2019 The genome of Bacillus subtilis phage ϕ29 consists of a linear double-stranded DNA with a terminal protein (TP) covalently linked to each 5' end (TP-DNA).

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).

Chemical Science, 2015 N 6-Methyladenine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification on mammalian mRNA. Very recently, m6A has been reported as a potentially important ‘epigenetic’ mark in eukaryotes.

Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

Idiosyncratic evolution of conserved eukaryote proteins that are similar in sequence to archaeal or bacterial proteins [PDF]
, 2008 Sequence comparisons have been made between the proteins of 571 prokaryote species including 46 archaea and 525 bacteria and the set of human proteins.
