Base Flip in DNA Studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Differently-Oxidized Forms of Methyl-Cytosine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
: Distortions in the DNA sequence, such as damage or mispairs, are specifically recognized and processed by DNA repair enzymes. Many repair proteins and, in particular, glycosylases flip the target base out of the DNA helix into the enzyme’s active site.

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

Systematic prediction of DNA shape changes due to CpG methylation explains epigenetic effects on protein–DNA binding

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2018
Background DNA shape analysis has demonstrated the potential to reveal structure-based mechanisms of protein–DNA binding. However, information about the influence of chemical modification of DNA is limited.

Changes in liver cell DNA methylation status in diabetic mice affect its FT-IR characteristics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Lower levels of cytosine methylation have been found in the liver cell DNA from non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice under hyperglycemic conditions. Because the Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) profiles of dry DNA samples are differently affected by DNA base ...

The contribution of Alu exons to the human proteome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundAlu elements are major contributors to lineage-specific new exons in primate and human genomes. Recent studies indicate that some Alu exons have high transcript inclusion levels or tissue-specific splicing profiles, and may play important ...

Detection of early stage pancreatic cancer using 5-hydroxymethylcytosine signatures in circulating cell free DNA

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Circulating DNA detected in plasma can be used for diagnostic purposes. Here, the authors show that the 5-hydroxymethyl cytosine biomarker from plasma-derived cell free DNA can be used to detect early stage pancreatic cancer.

Intramolecular folding in human ILPR fragment with three C-rich repeats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Enrichment of four tandem repeats of guanine (G) rich and cytosine (C) rich sequences in functionally important regions of human genome forebodes the biological implications of four-stranded DNA structures, such as G-quadruplex and i-motif, that can form

A nucleotide resolution map of Top2-linked DNA breaks in the yeast and human genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
DNA topoisomerases are required to resolve DNA topological stress. Despite this essential role, abortive topoisomerase activity generates aberrant protein-linked DNA breaks, jeopardising genome stability.

Epigenetics of Modified DNA Bases: 5-Methylcytosine and Beyond

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Modification of DNA bases plays vital roles in the epigenetic control of gene expression in both animals and plants. Though much attention is given to the conventional epigenetic signature 5-methylcytosine (5-mC), the field of epigenetics is attracting ...
