{BiQ} Analyzer {HiMod}: An Interactive Software Tool for High-throughput Locus-specific Analysis of 5-Methylcytosine and its Oxidized Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent data suggest important biological roles for oxidative modifications of methylated cytosines, specifically hydroxymethylation, formylation and carboxylation. Several assays are now available for profiling these DNA modifications genome-wide as well

DNA N6-Methyladenosine modification role in transmitted variations from genomic DNA to RNA in Herrania umbratica

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification. Recently the developed single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology provided an efficient way to detect DNA N6-methyladenine (6mA) modification that played an important role in

Smc5/6: a link between DNA repair and unidirectional replication? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Of the three structural maintenance of chromosome (SMC) complexes, two directly regulate chromosome dynamics. The third, Smc5/6, functions mainly in homologous recombination and in completing DNA replication.

A novel DNA modification by sulphur [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2005
SummaryStreptomyces lividans has a novel DNA modification, which sensitises its DNA to degradation during electrophoresis (the Dnd phenotype). The entire gene cluster (dnd) involved in this modification was localized on an 8 kb DNA fragment and was expressed in a S. lividans deletion mutant (dnd) and in several heterologous hosts. Disruption of the dnd

Studies on the cornin extracted from bovine liver. II. Inhibitory effect of the cornin on DNA synthesis and cell growth of L cells cultured in suspension [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Gornin was extracted from bovine liver. The effects of cornin on DNA synthesis were compared with its effects on cell growth using L cells growing in suspension.

Glyoxalase biochemistry

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2015
The glyoxalase enzyme system utilizes intracellular thiols such as glutathione to convert α-ketoaldehydes, such as methylglyoxal, into D-hydroxyacids. This overview discusses several main aspects of the glyoxalase system and its likely function in the ...

DNA Methylation Regulator-Meditated Modification Patterns Define the Distinct Tumor Microenvironment in Lung Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundEpigenetic changes of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have been reported to be a relevant factor in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for DNA methylation patterns in the tumor immune-infiltrating ...

Phosphorylation of nuclear Tau is modulated by distinct cellular pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Post-translational protein modification controls the function of Tau as a scaffold protein linking a variety of molecular partners. This is most studied in the context of microtubules, where Tau regulates their stability as well as the distribution of ...

Structural and mutagenic analysis of the RM controller protein C.Esp1396I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bacterial restriction-modification (RM) systems are comprised of two complementary enzymatic activities that prevent the establishment of foreign DNA in a bacterial cell: DNA methylation and DNA restriction.

Reassembling a cannon in the DNA defense arsenal: Genetics of StySA, a BREX phage exclusion system in Salmonella lab strains.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Understanding mechanisms that shape horizontal exchange in prokaryotes is a key problem in biology. A major limit on DNA entry is imposed by restriction-modification (RM) processes that depend on the pattern of DNA modification at host-specified sites ...
