MicroRNAs preferentially target the genes with high transcriptional regulation complexity [PDF]

open access: yesBiochem Biophys Res Commun., 352:733-738, 2007, 2006
Over the past few years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as a new prominent class of gene regulatory factors that negatively regulate expression of approximately one-third of the genes in animal genomes at post-transcriptional level. However, it is still unclear why some genes are regulated by miRNAs but others are not, i.e.

Phosphorylation of CENP-A on serine 7 does not control centromere function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
CENP-A is the histone H3 variant necessary to specify the location of all eukaryotic centromeres via its CENP-A targeting domain and either one of its terminal regions.

In planta gene targeting [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
The development of designed site-specific endonucleases boosted the establishment of gene targeting (GT) techniques in a row of different species. However, the methods described in plants require a highly efficient transformation and regeneration procedure and, therefore, can be applied to very few species.

LPG2 Gene Duplication in Leishmania infantum: A Case for CRISPR-Cas9 Gene Editing

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
On the surface of the Leishmania promastigote, phosphoglycans (PG) such as lipophosphoglycan (LPG), proteophosphoglycan (PPG), free phosphoglycan polymers (PGs), and acid phosphatases (sAP), are dominant and contribute to the invasion and survival of ...

RNase P Ribozyme Effectively Inhibits Human CC-Chemokine Receptor 5 Expression and Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 Infection

open access: yesZoonotic Diseases, 2023
Developing novel antiviral agents and approaches is essential for the treatment against human and zoonotic viruses. We had previously produced RNase P-based ribozyme variants capable of efficiently cleaving mRNA in vitro.

The natural dietary genistein boosts bacteriophage-mediated cancer cell killing by improving phage-targeted tumor cell transduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Gene therapy has long been regarded as a promising treatment for cancer. However, cancer gene therapy is still facing the challenge of targeting gene delivery vectors specifically to tumors when administered via clinically acceptable non-invasive ...

Targeted insertion of large DNA sequences by homology‐directed repair or non‐homologous end joining in engineered tobacco BY‐2 cells using designed zinc finger nucleases

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2019
Targeted integration of recombinant DNA fragments into plant genomes by DNA double‐strand break (DSB) repair mechanisms has become a powerful tool for precision engineering of crops.

Genes predisposing to type 1 diabetes mellitus and pathophysiology: a narrative review [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The possibility of targeting the causal genes along with the mechanisms of pathogenically complex diseases has led to numerous studies on the genetic etiology of some diseases. In particular, studies have added more genes to the list of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) suspect genes, necessitating an update for the interest of all stakeholders ...

Gene drive dynamics in natural populations: The importance of density-dependence, space and sex [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Ecology Evolution and Systematics. Vol. 51, 2020, 2020
The spread of synthetic gene drives is often discussed in the context of panmictic populations connected by gene flow and described with simple deterministic models. Under such assumptions, an entire species could be altered by releasing a single individual carrying an invasive gene drive, such as a standard homing drive.

Transposon variants and their effects on gene expression in arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Transposable elements (TEs) make up the majority of many plant genomes. Their transcription and transposition is controlled through siRNAs and epigenetic marks including DNA methylation.
