Budding Yeast SLX4 Contributes to the Appropriate Distribution of Crossovers and Meiotic Double-Strand Break Formation on Bivalents During Meiosis

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
The number and distribution of meiosis crossover (CO) events on each bivalent are strictly controlled by multiple mechanisms to assure proper chromosome segregation during the first meiotic division.

A CRISPR-Cas9 sex-ratio distortion system for genetic control. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Genetic control aims to reduce the ability of insect pest populations to cause harm via the release of modified insects. One strategy is to bias the reproductive sex ratio towards males so that a population decreases in size or is eliminated altogether ...

MYC Binding Near Transcriptional End Sites Regulates Basal Gene Expression, Read‐Through Transcription, and Intragenic Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MYC is a transcription factor (TF) that binds DNA near transcriptional start sites (TSSs) and within enhancer elements. Here, unappreciated sites of MYC binding in the vicinity of transcriptional end sites (TESs) of many genes in multiple cell types in association with numerous other TFs are described previously.

In vitro Inactivation of Latent HSV by Targeted Mutagenesis Using an HSV-specific Homing Endonuclease

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2014
Following acute infection, herpes simplex virus (HSV) establishes latency in sensory neurons, from which it can reactivate and cause recurrent disease.

Production of Specific Fragments of {varphi}X174 Replicative Form DNA by a Restriction Enzyme from Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Endonuclease HP [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
A restriction endonuclease from Haemophilus parainfluenzae degrades {varphi}X174 replicative form DNA into eight specific fragments, ranging from 1,700 to 150 base pairs and terminated specifically by deoxycytidylic ...

A Newly Discovered Bordetella Species Carries a Transcriptionally Active CRISPR-Cas with a Small Cas9 Endonuclease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated genes (cas) are widely distributed among bacteria.

Listerin Alleviates Alzheimer's Disease through IRE1‐mediated Decay of TLR4 mRNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is influenced by microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. Here, it is demonstrated that Listerin suppresses neuroinflammatory signaling and cognitive impairment in AD models by triggering IRE1α‐mediated TLR4 mRNA decay. Adenoviral Listerin delivery reduces amyloid‐β pathology, positioning it as a new therapeutic target.

Bacteria herald a new era of gene editing

open access: yeseLife, 2013
The demonstration that nucleases guided by bacterial RNA can disrupt human genes represents a landmark in the rapidly developing field of genome engineering.

Identification of a mismatch-specific endonuclease in hyperthermophilic Archaea

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2016
The common mismatch repair system processed by MutS and MutL and their homologs was identified in Bacteria and Eukarya. However, no evidence of a functional MutS/L homolog has been reported for archaeal organisms, and it is not known whether the mismatch

RETRACTED: Bacterial persistence by RNA endonucleases [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011
Bacteria form persisters, individual cells that are highly tolerant to different types of antibiotics. Persister cells are genetically identical to nontolerant kin but have entered a dormant state in which they are recalcitrant to the killing activity of the antibiotics. The molecular mechanisms underlying bacterial persistence are unknown.
