Two‐Photon 3D Printing of Functional Microstructures Inside Living Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates 3D printing inside living cells by using two‐photon photo‐lithography. A bio‐compatible photoresist is injected into cells and selectively polymerized with a femtosecond laser, creating custom‐shaped intracellular structures with submicron resolution.

An oligo-swapping method: preparation of mismatch repair-monitoring substrate using a nicking endonuclease

MethodsX
Mismatch repair (MMR) contributes to accurate DNA replication by eliminating mismatched bases during DNA synthesis. Its importance is underscored by Lynch syndrome, a common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome caused by MMR gene mutations.

Mismatch repair in recombination of bacteriophage T4

Biomolecular Concepts, 2012
The review focuses on the mechanism of mismatch repair in bacteriophage T4. It was first observed in T4 as an extra recombination mechanism, which contributed to the general recombination only when particular rII mutations were used as genetic markers ...

The effect of S-substitution at the O6-guanine site on the structure and dynamics of a DNA oligomer containing a G:T mismatch.

PLoS ONE, 2017
The effect of S-substitution on the O6 guanine site of a 13-mer DNA duplex containing a G:T mismatch is studied using molecular dynamics. The structure, dynamic evolution and hydration of the S-substituted duplex are compared with those of a normal ...

Label‐Free Sensing of Coronaviral Sequences via Kretschmann‐Configuration Reflectance Spectroscopic Ellipsometry: Sensitivity, Specificity, and Interfacial Effects

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Spectroscopic ellipsometry in the Kretschmann‐Raether configuration (KRSE) is employed to characterize a DNA‐functionalized platform for viral sequence recognition. By merging SE with surface plasmon resonance, KRSE outperforms conventional SE, achieving nanomolar targeting through resonance wavelength shifts (δλ) measurements. Its enhanced interfacial

MMR deficiency is frequent in colorectal carcinomas with diffuse SLFN11 immunostaining: clinicopathologic and molecular study of 31 cases identified among 3,300 tumors

The Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research
Schlafen 11 (SLFN11), a regulator of cell fate following DNA injury, sensitizes tumor cells to DNA‐damaging agents. Patients with SLFN11‐positive tumors may benefit from DNA‐damaging chemotherapies.
