A Cas9 with PAM recognition for adenine dinucleotides

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) requirements limit the target range of CRISPR endonucleases. Here, the authors graft the 5$$^{\prime}$$ ′ -NAAN-3$$^{\prime}$$ ′ PAM-interacting domain of SmacCas9 onto SpyCas9 to create adenine dinucleotide targeting ...

T‐Cell Exhaustion in the Tumor Microenvironment: Subcellular Dysfunction, Pan‐Cancer Characteristics, and Therapeutic Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the mechanisms of subcellular multidimensional collapse in exhausted T cells. By specifically targeting the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum, strategic interventions can effectively remodel the compromised organelle network. This integrated approach drives comprehensive T cell resuscitation, ultimately establishing

REF Select: Expert System Software for Selecting Restriction Endonucleases for Restriction Endonuclease Fingerprinting

open access: yesBioTechniques, 1999
REF Select, expert system software, has been developed to assist in the selection of optimal restriction endonucleases for restriction endonuclease fingerprinting (REF), a method for rapid and sensitive mutation screening of long DNA segments (1–2 kb ...

Tapping natural reservoirs of homing endonucleases for targeted gene modification

open access: yes, 2011
Homing endonucleases mobilize their own genes by generating double-strand breaks at individual target sites within potential host DNA. Because of their high specificity, these proteins are used for “genome editing” in higher eukaryotes.

ZDHHC17‐Mediated CDK4 Palmitoylation Drives Cell Cycle Progression and Orchestrates Cancer Immune Surveillance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ZDHHC17 palmitoylates CDK4, which together with TRAF6‐mediated ubiquitination, drives cell cycle progression and immune surveillance, revealing a rational combination of CDK4 inhibitors with immune checkpoint blockers for ZDHHC17‐driven cancers. ABSTRACT Uncontrolled cell cycle progression is a hallmark of cancer, tightly regulated by both intrinsic ...

Nucleic Acid Therapeutics for “Undruggable” Cancer Targets: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nucleic acid therapeutics bypass the structural limitations of conventional drugs by targeting mRNA rather than proteins. This review examines how antisense oligonucleotides, siRNAs, miRNAs, aptamers, and mRNA vaccines intervene against historically undruggable oncoproteins including Ras, MYC, and p53, highlighting mechanistic advances, delivery ...

EPIGENETICS TODAY AND TOMORROW

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015
Epigenetics is a science of inheritable organism properties that are not associated with changes in the DNA nucleotide sequence but can be indirectly encoded in the genome. The most known epigenetic mechanisms (signals) are enzymatic DNA methylation, the

Targeted Mutagenesis Using RNA-guided Endonucleases in Mosses

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
RNA-guided endonucleases (RGENs) have been used for genome editing in various organisms. Here, we demonstrate a simple method for performing targeted mutagenesis and genotyping in a model moss species, Physcomitrella patens, using RGENs.

Topological digestion drives time-varying rheology of entangled DNA fluids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Understanding and controlling the rheology of polymeric complex fluids is of fundamental importance in both industry and biology. Here, Michieletto et al. show how to achieve time-dependent rheology of DNA solutions via enzymatically-driven architectural
