Template-directed biopolymerization: tape-copying Turing machines
DNA, RNA and proteins are among the most important macromolecules in a living cell. These molecules are polymerized by molecular machines. These natural nano-machines polymerize such macromolecules, adding one monomer at a time, using another linear ...

Structure and Function of a Mycobacterial NHEJ DNA Repair Polymerase [PDF]
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD).

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

A latent ability to persist: differentiation in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
A critical factor in the transmission and pathogenesis of Toxoplasma gondii is the ability to convert from an acute disease-causing, proliferative stage (tachyzoite), to a chronic, dormant stage (bradyzoite).

NARFL Knockout Triggers Ferroptosis‐Driven Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction
NARFL is vital for CIA and oxidative stress resistance. NARFL deletion in HPMEC cells, zebrafish, and mice is lethal and rescued by a Ferroptosis inhibitor. NARFL deficiency disrupted its interaction with CIA proteins, decreased aconitase activity, increased IRP1 activity, induced Fe overload, and led to ferroptosis and oxidative stress, resulting in ...

Replication Stress and Consequential Instability of the Genome and Epigenome
Cells must faithfully duplicate their DNA in the genome to pass their genetic information to the daughter cells. To maintain genomic stability and integrity, double-strand DNA has to be replicated in a strictly regulated manner, ensuring the accuracy of ...

Evolutionary rates and gene dispensability associate with replication timing in the Archaeon Sulfolobus islandicus [PDF]
In bacterial chromosomes, the position of a gene relative to the single origin of replication generally reflects its replication timing, how often it is expressed, and consequently, its rate of evolution.

GeTe exhibits intrinsically high carrier concentrations that limit its thermoelectric performance. Herein, CuAgSe alloying synergistically tunes the band structure, induces band flattening and valence‐band convergence, promotes Cu‐ion delocalization, and generates multiscale hierarchical structures to suppress phonon transport.

Monitoring and quantifying replication fork dynamics with high-throughput methods
Before each cell division, eukaryotic cells must replicate their chromosomes to ensure the accurate transmission of genetic information. Chromosome replication involves more than just DNA duplication; it also includes chromatin assembly, inheritance of ...

Two subunits of human ORC are dispensable for DNA replication and proliferation
The six-subunit Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) is believed to be an essential eukaryotic ATPase that binds to origins of replication as a ring-shaped heterohexamer to load MCM2-7 and initiate DNA replication. We have discovered that human cell lines in
