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).

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

FANCM promotes PARP inhibitor resistance by minimizing ssDNA gap formation and counteracting resection inhibition

Cell Reports
Summary: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) exhibit remarkable anticancer activity in tumors with homologous recombination (HR) gene mutations. However, the role of other DNA repair proteins in PARPi-induced lethality remains elusive.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Navigating directed evolution efficiently: optimizing selection conditions and selection output analysis

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Directed evolution is a powerful tool that can bypass gaps in our understanding of the sequence-function relationship of proteins and still isolate variants with desired activities, properties, and substrate specificities.

Low Cost DNA Molecular Weight Marker: Primer-Directed Synthesis from pGEM-T Easy Vector

Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2011
A low cost DNA molecular weight marker was produced by a marker primer-directed synthetic method using pGEM-T Easy vector as the DNA template. Seven primers were used to amplify eight different DNA fragments, which were 150, 300, 375, 500, 700, 1,000, 1 ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Polyamines stimulate DNA-directed DNA synthesis catalyzed by mammalian type C retroviral DNA polymerases.

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 ...
