Triplex-forming DNA Probe Approach for Silver Detection and the Effect of C-G·C Triplet Distribution on Triplex Stability

open access: yesHittite 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

DNA Topology: Dynamic DNA Looping [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2006
The DNA in repressive loops is often tightly bent. DNA flexibility imposes significant constraints on their topology suggesting that they may exist as perturbations in plectonemic DNA.

Topological entropy of DNA sequences [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2011
Abstract Motivation: Topological entropy has been one of the most difficult to implement of all the entropy-theoretic notions. This is primarily due to finite sample effects and high-dimensionality problems. In particular, topological entropy has been implemented in previous literature to conclude that entropy of exons is higher than ...

Hsmar1 transposition is sensitive to the topology of the transposon donor and the target. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

DNA polymerase ε harmonizes topological states and R-loops formation to maintain genome integrity in Arabidopsis

open access: yesNature 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

open access: yesNature 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

DNA topology: Topological transformation of DNA by reaction of cisplatin-DNA-core histone complexes with human DNA topoisomerase [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Symposium Series, 2002
Cis-diamminedichloroplatinium(II), an active antitumor agent binds to core-histone -SV40 DNA complexes prepared by reaction of DNA with core-histone, and alters the fiber-like structure into the loosened structure. In order to model the cisplatin-modified chromatin complexes in cell, the complexes were reacted with human DNA topo II.

Physical Characterization of Gemini Surfactant-Based Synthetic Vectors for the Delivery of Linear Covalently Closed (LCC) DNA Ministrings. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...
