Homology directed correction, a new pathway model for point mutation repair catalyzed by CRISPR-Cas
Scientific Reports, 2022 Gene correction is often referred to as the gold standard for precise gene editing and while CRISPR-Cas systems continue to expand the toolbox for clinically relevant genetic repair, mechanistic hurdles still hinder widespread implementation.

Construction of PIK3C3 Transgenic Pig and Its Pathogenesis of Liver Damage
Life, 2022 As a member of the PIKs family, PIK3C3 participates in autophagy and plays a central role in liver function. Several studies demonstrated that the complete suppression of PIK3C3 in mammals can cause hepatomegaly and hepatosteatosis. However, the function

Tumor evolution selectively inactivates the core microRNA machinery for immune evasion
Nature Communications, 2021 Dysregulation of the microRNA machinery has crucial roles in cancer development. Here the authors show that inactivation of proteins involved in microRNA-mediated gene silencing, such as ANKRD52 or AGO2, confers resistance to T cell-mediated immune ...

Steric antisense inhibition of AMPA receptor Q/R editing reveals tight coupling to intronic editing sites and splicing [PDF]
, 2012 Adenosine-to-Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a post-transcriptional mechanism, evolved to diversify the transcriptome in metazoa. In addition to wide-spread editing in non-coding regions protein recoding by RNA editing allows for fine tuning of protein ...
