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

Aging 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 ...

Molecular Engineering Mediated Interfacial Assembly as an Artificial Extracellular Matrix Remolds Bacteria With Enhanced Abiotic Resilience

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic artificial extracellular matrix is assembled directly on Pseudomonas fluorescens by co‐assembling amyloid‐like lysozyme and alginate at the cell surface. This conformal nanocoating acts as both a hydration buffer and a physiological priming layer, markedly enhancing desiccation tolerance, seed adhesion, storage stability, and biocontrol ...

Characterization of the Interaction of Known G‐quadruplex Ligands With a Minimal i‐Motif Structure

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The destabilization of a minimal i‐Motif (iM) structure by TMPyP4 is driven by ligand recognition of one terminal iM structural domain. ABSTRACT Peculiar genomic regions are prone to evolve transiently from double‐helix DNA to noncanonical secondary structures in response to physiological stress.

Introduction of a Double‐Headed Nucleotide Into G‐Quadruplex DNA: Position‐Dependent Stabilization and Structural Insights

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A double‐headed bis‐guanine (G) nucleotide (GG) was evaluated as a noncanonical building block in G‐quadruplexes (G4s). Biophysical and computational analyses reveal that GG can directly participate in G‐tetrads and strongly stabilize G4s in a position‐ and topology‐dependent manner. These findings establish design rules for using GG to engineer highly

Raman Optical Activity as a Tool to Monitor Polynucleotide Conformation in Solutions

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Raman optical activity (ROA) studies of nucleic acids have been hindered by limited computational tools to link the spectra to the structure. The study shows that accurate density functional simulations are possible for model nucleotides, bringing more information about molecular geometry and dynamics in solutions.

Hyperoside alleviates endometrial stromal cell senescence in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion via DHX9‐mediated R‐loop resolution

iMeta, EarlyView.
This study suggests that the food‐derived flavonoid hyperoside may act as a natural DExH‐box helicase 9 (DHX9) modulator, directly targeting Thr419 of DHX9 to help resolve pathological R‐loop accumulation. Consequently, it suppresses cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase‐stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS‐STING)‐driven endometrial stromal senescence and restores ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Long non‐coding RNAs at the crossroads of inflammation, cancer and angiogenesis: Molecular mechanisms and their potential as therapeutic targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a broad class of non‐protein‐coding RNAs, are characterized as new regulators of gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional, and post‐transcriptional level. Thus, lncRNAs are involved in the regulation of physiological processes and the development of human diseases and cancer by modulating proinflammatory ...

TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...
