The organizer of chromatin topology RIF1 ensures cellular resilience to DNA replication stress
Life Science Alliance, 2023 The conserved protein RIF1 stabilizes replication factories and regulates cohesin recruitment in response to replication stress to limit DNA lesions. Eukaryotic genomes are duplicated from thousands of replication origins that fire sequentially forming a

Tuning the topology of a two-dimensional catenated DNA network
Physical Review Research, 2023 Molecular topology of polymers plays a key role in determining their physical properties. We studied herein the topological effects on the static and dynamic properties of a 2D catenated network of DNA rings called a kinetoplast. Restriction enzymes that

Hittite Journal of Science and Engineering, 2019 I n this study novel triplex forming DNA probes have been designed in order to detect Ag+ ion in low concentrations. The use of triplex forming oligonucleotides is a convenient in applications of sensing biomolecules due to their sequence specificity and

“An End to a Means”: How DNA-End Structure Shapes the Double-Strand Break Repair Process
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020 Endogenously-arising DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) rarely harbor canonical 5′-phosphate, 3′-hydroxyl moieties at the ends, which are, regardless of the pathway used, ultimately required for their repair.

Hsmar1 transposition is sensitive to the topology of the transposon donor and the target. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Hsmar1 is a member of the Tc1-mariner superfamily of DNA transposons. These elements mobilize within the genome of their host by a cut-and-paste mechanism.

Nature Communications, 2023 Genome topology is tied to R-loop formation and genome stability. However, the regulatory mechanism remains to be elucidated. By establishing a system to sense the connections between R-loops and genome topology states, we show that inhibiting DNA ...

Structural basis for allosteric regulation of Human Topoisomerase IIα
Nature Communications, 2021 Type 2 DNA topoisomerases (Top2) regulates DNA topology during DNA replication, transcription, and chromosome segregation. Here the authors describe a complete structure of the catalytic core of the human Topo IIα bound to DNA and etoposide, providing ...

Archaea: A Gold Mine for Topoisomerase Diversity
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The control of DNA topology is a prerequisite for all the DNA transactions such as DNA replication, repair, recombination, and transcription. This global control is carried out by essential enzymes, named DNA-topoisomerases, that are mandatory for the ...

Physical Characterization of Gemini Surfactant-Based Synthetic Vectors for the Delivery of Linear Covalently Closed (LCC) DNA Ministrings. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 In combination with novel linear covalently closed (LCC) DNA minivectors, referred to as DNA ministrings, a gemini surfactant-based synthetic vector for gene delivery has been shown to exhibit enhanced delivery and bioavailability while offering a ...
