Rapid construction of mycobacterial mutagenesis vectors using ligation-independent cloning [PDF]
Targeted mutagenesis is one of the major tools for determining the function of a given gene and its involvement in bacterial pathogenesis. In mycobacteria, gene deletion is often accomplished by using allelic exchange techniques that commonly utilise a ...

Recent Advances in Chitosan-Based Carriers for Gene Delivery
Approximately 4000 diseases are associated with malfunctioning genes in a particular cell type. Gene-based therapy provides a platform to modify the disease-causing genes expression at the cellular level to treat pathological conditions.

Combining hyaluronic acid with chitosan enhances gene delivery [PDF]
The low gene transfer efficiency of chitosan-DNA polyplexes is a consequence of their high stability and consequent slow DNA release. The incorporation of an anionic polymer is believed to loosen chitosan interactions with DNA and thus promote higher ...

Opposing Roles of Wild-type and Mutant p53 in the Process of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
The central role of an aberrantly activated EMT program in defining the critical features of aggressive carcinomas is well documented and includes cell plasticity, metastatic dissemination, drug resistance, and cancer stem cell-like phenotypes.

Circumventing antivector immunity: potential use of nonhuman adenoviral vectors [PDF]
Adenoviruses are efficient gene delivery vectors based on their ability to transduce a wide variety of cell types and drive high-level transient transgene expression. While there have been advances in modifying human adenoviral (HAdV) vectors to increase
