Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Ultrasensitive deletion detection links mitochondrial DNA replication, disease, and aging
Background Acquired human mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) deletions are symptoms and drivers of focal mitochondrial respiratory deficiency, a pathological hallmark of aging and late-onset mitochondrial disease.

Self-replication of DNA by its encoded proteins in liposome-based synthetic cells
Replication of DNA-encoded information and its conversion into functional proteins are universal properties of life. In an effort toward the construction of a synthetic minimal cell, we implement here the DNA replication machinery of the Φ29 virus in a ...

Replication of baculovirus DNA
Introduction. The Baculoviridae is a diverse family of pathogens that are infectious for arthropods and are characterized by a complex replication cycle that culminates in the occlusion of virions in a crystalline protein matrix (Blissard & Rohrmann, 1990).

The Arabidopsis mutants hls1 hlh1 and amp1 lamp1 exhibit pleiotropic developmental phenotypes. Although the functions of the causative genes remain unclear, they act in the same genetic pathway and are thought to generate non‐cell‐autonomous signals.

Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

Cdt1 stabilizes an open MCM ring for helicase loading
The loading and activation of the Mcm2-7 replicative helicase couples cell cycle progression to DNA replication. Here the authors use X-ray crystallography and single-particle electron microscopy to demonstrate how Ctd1 functions to promote MCM loading ...

Mutations in the C9orf72 gene represent the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Using patient‐derived neurons and C. elegans models, we find that the nucleoporin Nup107 is dysregulated in C9orf72‐associated ALS. Conversely, reducing Nup107 levels mitigates disease‐related changes.

The Temporal Order of DNA Replication Shaped by Mammalian DNA Methyltransferases
Multiple epigenetic pathways underlie the temporal order of DNA replication (replication timing) in the contexts of development and disease. DNA methylation by DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts) and downstream chromatin reorganization and transcriptional ...
