Evolution of Prime Editing: Enhancing Efficiency and Expanding Capacity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Most rare diseases are caused by genetic mutations. Prime editing (PE) has emerged as a versatile tool capable of inducing diverse mutations without generating DNA double‐strand breaks. Despite its significant clinical potential, PE faces limitations in terms of efficiency and scalability.

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a Therapeutic Strategy for Inherited Mitochondrial Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial transplantation (MTx) offers a promising therapeutic avenue for mitochondrial diseases. This review comprehensively evaluates MTx, differentiating its feasibility for mtDNA‐ and nDNA‐based disorders. It examines its potential for genetic correction, alongside inherent limitations, technical challenges, and crucial ethical considerations ...

Accurate estimation of 5-methylcytosine in mammalian mitochondrial DNA

Scientific Reports, 2018
Whilst 5-methylcytosine (5mC) is a major epigenetic mark in the nuclear DNA in mammals, whether or not mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) receives 5mC modification remains controversial.

Identification and characterization of the cytosine-5 DNA methyltransferase gene family in Salvia miltiorrhiza

PeerJ, 2018
Cytosine DNA methylation is highly conserved epigenetic modification involved in a wide range of biological processes in eukaryotes. It was established and maintained by cytosine-5 DNA methyltransferases (C5-MTases) in plants.

Maternal cadmium, iron and zinc levels, DNA methylation and birth weight [PDF]

, 2015
Background Cadmium (Cd) is a ubiquitous and environmentally persistent toxic metal that has been implicated in neurotoxicity, carcinogenesis and obesity and essential metals including zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) may alter these outcomes.

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae)

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

Sequence Expression of Supernumerary B Chromosomes: Function or Fluff? [PDF]

, 2019
B chromosomes are enigmatic heritable elements found in the genomes of numerous plant and animal species. Contrary to their broad distribution, most B chromosomes are non-essential. For this reason, they are regarded as genome parasites.

Phasentrennung von Nukleinsäuren: Mechanismen, Eigenschaften und Anwendungen

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Jüngste Entdeckungen zeigen, dass einzelsträngige langkettige Nukleinsäuren temperaturinduziert phasentrennen und dabei mikrometergroße Kondensate bilden. Dieser Minireview fasst das aktuelle mechanistische Verständnis dieses Phänomens zusammen, beschreibt Strategien zur gezielten Kontrolle der physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften der Kondensate
