DNA logic gate based on metallo-toehold strand displacement.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
DNA is increasingly being used as an ideal material for the construction of nanoscale structures, circuits, and machines. Toehold-mediated DNA strand displacement reactions play a very important role in these enzyme-free constructions. In this study, the

Remote Toehold: A Mechanism for Flexible Control of DNA Hybridization Kinetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hybridization of DNA strands can be used to build molecular devices, and control of the kinetics of DNA hybridization is a crucial element in the design and construction of functional and autonomous devices. Toehold-mediated strand displacement

Scalable, Time-Responsive, Digital, Energy-Efficient Molecular Circuits using DNA Strand Displacement

open access: yes, 2010
We propose a novel theoretical biomolecular design to implement any Boolean circuit using the mechanism of DNA strand displacement. The design is scalable: all species of DNA strands can in principle be mixed and prepared in a single test tube, rather ...

Statistical Mechanics of thermal denaturation of DNA oligomers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Double stranded DNA chain is known to have nontrivial elasticity. We study the effect of this elasticity on the denaturation profile of DNA oligomer by constraining one base pair at one end of the oligomer to remain in unstretched (or intact) state.

Robustness of DNA Strand Displacement Systems⋆

open access: yesIFAC-PapersOnLine, 2018
Abstract How to construct a reliable deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) circuit is one of the most important issues in the field of molecular programming and computing. Such a circuit frequently suffers from various kinds of unintended binding reactions on account of a lower specificity of the molecular interaction emerging from base complementarity between

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Replication slippage of the thermophilic DNA polymerases B and D from the Euryarchaeota Pyrococcus abyssi

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Replication slippage or slipped-strand mispairing involves the misalignment of DNA strands during the replication of repeated DNA sequences, and can lead to genetic rearrangements such as microsatellite instability.

Bubble dynamics in double stranded DNA : A Rouse chain based approach

open access: yes, 2010
We propose a model for the fluctuation dynamics of the local denaturation zones (bubbles) in double-stranded DNA. In our formulation, the DNA strand is model as a one dimensional Rouse chain confined at both the ends.

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

From the Test Tube to the Cell: A Homecoming for DNA Computing Circuits?

open access: yesIntelligent Computing
This review article poses the overarching question: Can complex dynamic DNA nanodevices based on strand displacement reactions be operated within, and can they interoperate with living cells?
