Microarray-based DNA resequencing using 3′ blocked primers [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytical Biochemistry, 2008
To exceed the throughput and accuracy of conventional sequencing technologies, we tested a method (pyrophosphorolysis-activated polymerization [PAP]) of nucleic acid amplification that uses 3' blocked primers (P*s). As proof-of-principle, we resequenced a 20-bp region of the factor IX gene with a microarray of P*s.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Development of a New Monochrome Multiplex qPCR Method for Relative Telomere Length Measurement in Cancer

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2018
Excess telomere shortening has been observed in most cancer cells. The telomere quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay has become an important tool for epidemiological studies examining the effects of aging, stress, and other factors on the ...

Detection of rtxA Gene as a Biomarker of Seafood-Borne Pathogen Vibrio cholerae using In Silico PCR Assay

open access: yesSqualen, 2020
Seafood-borne outbreaks caused by Vibrio cholerae have led to the increased need for food safety risk assessment of marine products. An in silico investigation about the potential of virulence gene of V.

Mutually Uncorrelated Primers for DNA-Based Data Storage

open access: yes, 2017
We introduce the notion of weakly mutually uncorrelated (WMU) sequences, motivated by applications in DNA-based data storage systems and for synchronization of communication devices.

Attempts to detect retrotransposition and de novo deletion of Alus and other dispersed repeats at specific loci in the human genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Dispersed repeat elements contribute to genome instability by de novo insertion and unequal recombination between repeats. To study the dynamics of these processes, we have developed single DNA molecule approaches to detect de novo insertions at a single

Self-Reporting PNA/DNA Primers for PCR Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Research, 2001
We report a new fluorogenic method for sealed-tube PCR analysis using a quencher-labeled peptide nucleic acid (Q-PNA) probe. The Q-PNA hybridizes to a complementary tag sequence located at the 5′ end of a 5′ fluorophore-labeled oligonucleotide primer, quenching the primer's fluorescence. Incorporation of the primer into a doublestranded amplicon causes

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

New internal primers targeting short fragments of the mitochondrial COI region for archival specimens from the subfamily Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae)

open access: yesJournal of Hymenoptera Research, 2018
Archival specimens are a great resource for molecular research in population biology, taxonomy and conservation. A primary goal for researchers is to preserve specimens from collections by improving noninvasive methods for DNA extraction and to achieve ...

Designing of primer for PCR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the technique for in vitro synthesis of multiple copies of a given DNA molecule. Primers are the most important components of PCR and success of PCR largely depends on the primers. A primer is an oligonucleotide. It
