DNA-Mediated Electrochemistry [PDF]

, 2008
The base pair stack of DNA has been demonstrated as a medium for long-range charge transport chemistry both in solution and at DNA-modified surfaces. This chemistry is exquisitely sensitive to structural perturbations in the base pair stack as occur with

Optimized TadA‐derived base editors efficiently manipulate mRNA splicing by A‐to‐G and C‐to‐K editing in potato

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Two optimized TadA‐derived base editors efficiently generate diverse splicing variants by targeting specific splice sites in potato. ABSTRACT Pre‐messenger RNA (pre‐mRNA) splicing is a critical mechanism for post‐transcriptional regulation in plants. Through alternative splicing, plants produce diverse transcriptomes and proteomes that finely regulate ...

Methylation-Sensitive Expression of a DNA Demethylase Gene Serves As an Epigenetic Rheostat [PDF]

, 2014
Genomes must balance active suppression of transposable elements (TEs) with the need to maintain gene expression. In Arabidopsis, euchromatic TEs are targeted by RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM).

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.

TDP1 deficiency sensitizes human cells to base damage via distinct topoisomerase I and PARP mechanisms with potential applications for cancer therapy [PDF]

, 2013
Base damage and topoisomerase I (Top1)-linked DNA breaks are abundant forms of endogenous DNA breakage, contributing to hereditary ataxia and underlying the cytotoxicity of a wide range of anti-cancer agents.

DNA Hypomethylation Is One of the Epigenetic Mechanisms Involved in Salt‐Stress Priming in Soybean Seedlings

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salt‐stress priming enhances the tolerance of plants against subsequent exposure to a similar stress. Priming‐induced transcriptomic reprogramming is mediated by multiple epigenetic mechanisms, the best known of which is histone modifications. However, not much is known about other epigenetic responses.

Approaches to Detection of Distantly Related Proteins by Database Searches

BioTechniques, 1996
The searching of protein databases as a method of identifying newly sequenced genes is commonplace in molecular biology laboratories. However, it is a procedure that is not usually formally taught to students, and method cookbooks discuss it only briefly.

DNA Methylation Shapes Seed‐Borne Microbiome and Proteome Responses During Early Maize‐Beneficial Bacteria Interactions

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microorganism and plant interactions are crucial for development and environmental adaptation. Plant growth promoting bacteria enhance agricultural productivity in a sustainable manner, while epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation regulate gene expression and adaptive responses.

DNA Repair in Mammalian Cells: Mismatched repair: variations on a theme [PDF]

, 2018
.: Complementary base pairing underlies the genetic template function of the DNA double helix. Therefore, to assure faithful DNA transactions, cells must adhere to a strict application of the Watson-Crick base pairing principle.Yet, mispairing does arise

Resisting Xylella fastidiosa: xylem anatomical changes in the susceptible olive cultivar Cellina di Nardò after long‐term infection

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
After long‐term infection, the susceptible O. europaea cultivar Cellina di Nardò modified its wood anatomical traits as an adaptive response to counteract Xylella fastidiosa, exhibiting spontaneous canopy restoration. Abstract The Xylella fastidiosa subsp.
