The enzymatic basis of processivity in lambda exonuclease

open access: yes, 2003
Lambda exonuclease is a highly processive 5'-->3' exonuclease that degrades double-stranded (ds)DNA. The single-stranded DNA produced by lambda exonuclease is utilized by homologous pairing proteins to carry out homologous recombination.

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Mechanical Caging of Nucleic Acids Enabled by Light‐Activated Synthetic Molecular Motors

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic light‐driven molecular motor imposes mechanical constraints on nucleic acids, enabling “mechanical caging” as a new mode to regulate DNA structure and function through mechanical input rather than chemical masking. ABSTRACT Control over nucleic acid activity is central to biotechnology and therapeutic development.

Transcripts enriched in codons that trigger P‐site tRNA‐mediated mRNA decay possess stable mRNA

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
PTMD codons were first described by Mendel et al. as mediators of an mRNA decay pathway dependent on the human protein CNOT3, homologous to yeast Not5. Our findings confirm that PTMD codons destabilize transcripts; however, unlike in yeast, the human pathway specifically targets and slightly destabilizes primarily stable mRNAs.

Dynamic Operations in Macromolecular Data Storage

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
With the exponential growth of digital data and the limitations of conventional silicon‐based storage and computing technologies, macromolecular data storage, the practice of encoding digital information within large, complex molecules like DNA or synthetic polymers, has emerged as a scalable and sustainable alternative to traditional digital ...

Newly Proposed Dose of Daclatasvir to Prevent Lethal SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Human Transgenic ACE-2 Mice

open access: yesViruses
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) still causes death in elderly and immunocompromised individuals, for whom the sustainability of the vaccine response may be limited.

TREX1 D18N mice fail to process erythroblast DNA resulting in inflammation and dysfunctional erythropoiesis

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2018
Anaemia is commonly observed in chronic inflammatory conditions, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), where ∼50% of patients display clinical signs of anaemia.

The Nucleotide Capture Region of Alpha Hemolysin: Insights into Nanopore Design for DNA Sequencing from Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2015
Nanopore technology for DNA sequencing is constantly being refined and improved. In strand sequencing a single strand of DNA is fed through a nanopore and subsequent fluctuations in the current are measured. A major hurdle is that the DNA is translocated

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

Bacterial exonuclease III expands its enzymatic activities on single-stranded DNA

open access: yeseLife
Bacterial exonuclease III (ExoIII), widely acknowledged for specifically targeting double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), has been documented as a DNA repair-associated nuclease with apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP)-endonuclease and 3′→5′ exonuclease activities.
