Simulating 3-symbol Turing machines with SIMD||DNA [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
SIMD||DNA is a model of DNA strand displacement allowing parallel in-memory computation on DNA storage. We show how to simulate an arbitrary 3-symbol space-bounded Turing machine with a SIMD||DNA program, giving a more direct and efficient route to general-purpose information manipulation on DNA storage than the Rule 110 simulation of [Wang, Chalk ...

Identification of programmed cell death in situ via specific labeling of nuclear DNA fragmentation

Journal of Cell Biology, 1992
Programmed cell death (PCD) plays a key role in developmental biology and in maintenance of the steady state in continuously renewing tissues. Currently, its existence is inferred mainly from gel electrophoresis of a pooled DNA extract as PCD was shown ...

Label-free electrochemical monitoring of DNA ligase activity [PDF]

, 2008
This study presents a simple, label-free electrochemical technique for the monitoring of DNA ligase activity. DNA ligases are enzymes that catalyze joining of breaks in the backbone of DNA and are of significant scientific interest due to their essential

Optimal SNP filtering strategies for pedigree reconstruction: A case study with wild red‐spotted masu salmon population

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
In this article, we tested optimal SNP filtering strategies for accurate parentage assignment and pedigree reconstruction for a wild population of red‐spotted masu salmon, Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae. We found that mid‐point filtering in terms of call rate and minor allele frequency performs well for pedigree reconstruction.

The C Terminus of Ku80 activates the DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit [PDF]

, 1999
Ku is a heterodimeric protein with double-stranded DNA end-binding activity that operates in the process of nonhomologous end joining. Ku is thought to target the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) complex to the DNA and, when DNA bound, can interact ...

Evaluating the origin and spread of spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) in Japan

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
The invasive spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) is native to China and is a serious economic pest in the Republic of Korea and the United States, though it is not considered a pest in Japan. We established a distribution map of L. delicatula in Japan through a comprehensive review of published literature and citizen science reports and analyzed ...

Tissue distribution and retention drives efficacy of rapidly clearing VHL-based PROTACs

Communications Medicine
Background Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are being developed for therapeutic use. However, they have poor pharmacokinetic profiles and their tissue distribution kinetics are not known. Methods A typical von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (VHL)—

Itaconic acid degradation in Aspergillus niger: the role of unexpected bioconversion pathways

Fungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2019
Background Itaconic acid (IA), a C5-dicarboxylic acid, has previously been identified as one of the top twelve biochemicals that can be produced by biotechnological means.
