Enzymatic Switching Between Archaeal DNA Polymerases Facilitates Abasic Site Bypass [PDF]
Abasic sites are among the most abundant DNA lesions encountered by cells. Their replication requires actions of specialized DNA polymerases. Herein, two archaeal specialized DNA polymerases were examined for their capability to perform translesion DNA ...

A Well-Conserved Archaeal B-Family Polymerase Functions as an Extender in Translesion Synthesis [PDF]
B-family DNA polymerases (PolBs) of different groups are widespread in Archaea, and different PolBs often coexist in the same organism. Many of these PolB enzymes remain to be investigated.

A Unique B-Family DNA Polymerase Facilitating Error-Prone DNA Damage Tolerance in Crenarchaeota [PDF]
Sulfolobus islandicus codes for four DNA polymerases: three are of the B-family (Dpo1, Dpo2, and Dpo3), and one is of the Y-family (Dpo4). Western analysis revealed that among the four polymerases, only Dpo2 exhibited DNA damage-inducible expression.

Modeling the Effect of Hyperoxia on the Spin–Lattice Relaxation Rate R1 of Tissues
Purpose Inducing hyperoxia in tissues is common practice in several areas of research, including oxygen‐enhanced MRI (OE‐MRI), which attempts to use the resulting signal changes to detect regions of tumor hypoxia or pulmonary disease. The linear relationship between PO2 and R1 has been reproduced in phantom solutions and body fluids such as vitreous ...

Background Under normal physiological conditions, the spin–lattice relaxation rate (R1) in blood is influenced by many factors, including hematocrit, field strength, and the paramagnetic effects of deoxyhemoglobin and dissolved oxygen. In addition, techniques such as oxygen‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) require high fractions of inspired ...

A new prototype device with small geometric footprint, the µTOM, allows monitoring of the oxygen transfer rate (OTR) in 96 deepwell microtiter plates. The device was used to monitor cultivations of common production organisms used in commercial biotechnology and research, such as Escherichia coli, Hansenula polymorpha (Ogataea angusta), and Ustilago ...

FLASH radiotherapy with carbon ion beams
Abstract FLASH radiotherapy is considered a new potential breakthrough in cancer treatment. Ultra‐high dose rates (>40 Gy/s) have been shown to reduce toxicity in the normal tissue without compromising tumor control, resulting in a widened therapeutic window.

A simplified empirical model to estimate oxygen relaxivity at different magnetic fields
We have compiled 28 reported empirical values of the relaxivity of oxygen and provide an empirical model for estimating the relaxivity of oxygen in water, saline, plasma, and vitreous fluids, accounting for magnetic field strength and temperature. The model agrees well (R2 = 0.93) with the data gathered from literature, ranging from 0.011 to 8.45 T and
