Isolation and physical properties of the DNA‐directed RNA polymerase from Thermus thermophilus HB8 [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1990
The DNA‐directed RNA polymerase from the extremely thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus HB8 was purified employing a new and rapid method. The subunit pattern of the enzyme, analyzed by SDS gel electrophoresis, was interpreted as: 140 kDa and 170 kDa for β and β′, 40 kDa for α and 92 kDa for ó.

Primer Extension Reactions for the PCR- based α- complementation Assay

Bio-Protocol, 2015
The PCR- based- α- complementation assay is an effective technique to measure the fidelity of polymerases, especially RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RDRP) and Reverse Transcriptases (RT). It has been successfully employed to determine the fidelity of the

Kinetic analysis of an efficient DNA-dependent TNA polymerase. [PDF]

, 2005
alpha-l-Threofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (tNTPs) are tetrafuranose nucleoside derivatives and potential progenitors of present-day beta-d-2'-deoxyribofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs).

Cotranscriptional kinetic folding of RNA secondary structures including pseudoknots [PDF]

Journal of Computational Biology, 2021, 2020
Computational prediction of RNA structures is an important problem in computational structural biology. Studies of RNA structure formation often assume that the process starts from a fully synthesized sequence. Experimental evidence, however, has shown that RNA folds concurrently with its elongation.

DNA-directed DNA Polymerase Activity in Oncogenic RNA Viruses

Nature, 1970
Besides having RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity, oncogenic RNA viruses possess a DNA-directed DNA polymerase which is distinguished from previously described enzymes of this type in preferring double-stranded DNA as template and yielding a principally double-stranded product.

Antibodies to the DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit RPB1 occur with highest frequency in centenarians [PDF]

Immunity & Ageing, 2016
BACKGROUND: Recently, phage display technology has made it possible to define the circulating repertoire of humoral immunity. This study was designed to define the circulating antibodies specific to centenarians. RESULTS: We used a phage-displayed combinatorial peptide library to screen for peptides (YSATLRY and YSPTLFY) that preferentially react with ...

Stochastic resetting in backtrack recovery by RNA polymerases [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 93, 062411 (2016), 2016
Transcription is a key process in gene expression, in which RNA polymerases produce a complementary RNA copy from a DNA template. RNA polymerization is frequently interrupted by backtracking, a process in which polymerases perform a random walk along the DNA template.

Structure and Function of a Mycobacterial NHEJ DNA Repair Polymerase [PDF]

, 2006
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD).

RNA-directed DNA methylation involves co-transcriptional small-RNA-guided slicing of polymerase V transcripts in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

, 2018
Small RNAs regulate chromatin modifications such as DNA methylation and gene silencing across eukaryotic genomes. In plants, RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) requires 24-nucleotide small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that bind to ARGONAUTE 4 (AGO4) and ...

Inhibition of Ebola Virus by Anti-Ebola miRNAs in silico

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2016
Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNA molecules that regulate transcriptional and posttranscriptional gene regulation of the organisms. miRNA provides immune defense when the body is faced with challenges intracellular agents.
