DNA glycosylases UNG and SMUG1 excise uracil from DNA and belong to the same protein superfamily. Vertebrates contain both SMUG1 and UNG, but their distinct roles in base excision repair (BER) of deaminated cytosine (U:G) are still not fully defined ...

Grandmother Age Effects via Sperm Telomere Length and Egg Telomerase Transcripts
ABSTRACT The Lansing effect is a transgenerational age effect by which old parents tend to produce less viable descendants. Despite its importance for the evolution of lifespan and parental effects, the transgenerational nature of age effects and the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.

TIR innovations in plant immunity
Summary Toll/interleukin‐1 receptor (TIR) domain‐containing immune receptors are crucial for plant immunity, with recent advancements highlighting the enzymatic functions of TIR domains and their production of signaling molecules. TIR‐catalyzed compounds interact with receptors to form functional modules that trigger the oligomerization of helper ...
