Reciprocal regulation of A-to-I RNA editing and the vertebrate nervous system [PDF]

, 2013
The fine control of molecules mediating communication in the nervous system is key to adjusting neuronal signaling during development and in maintaining the stability of established networks in the face of altered sensory input.

Gene editing and gene regulation with CRISPR [PDF]

Experimental Physiology, 2018
Genome editing enables precise changes to be made in the genome of living cells. The technique was originally developed in the 1980’s but largely limited to use in mice. The discovery that a targeted double stranded break (DSB) at a unique site in the genome, close to the site to be changed, could substantially increase the efficiency of editing ...

Highly efficient prime editing by introducing same-sense mutations in pegRNA or stabilizing its structure

Nature Communications, 2022
Prime editors can mediate all twelve types of base substitutions and small insertions or deletions in living cells but its efficiency remains low. Here the authors introduce same-sense mutations into pegRNAs to increase base-editing efficiency and the ...

Functional characterization of tumor-specific CRISPR-directed gene editing as a combinatorial therapy for the treatment of solid tumors

Molecular Therapy: Oncology
As we pursue clinical applications for CRISPR-directed gene editing in overcoming resistance to anticancer drugs, we have focused on genetic disruption of the transcription factor, NRF2, a master regulator of cellular stress and detoxification. The level

HIV-1 and HTLV-1 Transmission Modes: Mechanisms and Importance for Virus Spread

Viruses, 2022
So far, only two retroviruses, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (type 1 and 2) and human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), have been recognized as pathogenic for humans. Both viruses mainly infect CD4+ T lymphocytes.

Gene editing

Postępy Biochemii, 2018
Development of the gene engineering techniques has raised worries that they will be used for construction of organism endangering humansand environment. In 1975 at the Asilomar conference, geneticists from many countries decided that genetic engineering brings more benefitsthan threats. In last years a new CRISPR-Cas technique emerged .

CAS9 is a genome mutator by directly disrupting DNA-PK dependent DNA repair pathway. [PDF]

, 2020
With its high efficiency for site-specific genome editing and easy manipulation, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/ CRISPR associated protein 9 (CAS9) system has become the most widely used gene editing technology in ...

Target choice and exon skipping regulate CRISPR-directed gene editing of NRF2 in head/neck and esophageal cancer cells

Molecular Therapy: Oncology
Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the seventh most diagnosed cancer, with a predicted 30% increase annually by 2030. Conventional treatment is often combinatorial involving chemotherapy and radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and surgery, but over time ...
