Solid-phase-assisted synthesis of targeting peptide-PEG-oligo(ethane amino)amides for receptor-mediated gene delivery. [PDF]
In the forthcoming era of cancer gene therapy, efforts will be devoted to the development of new efficient and non-toxic gene delivery vectors. In this regard, the use of Fmoc/Boc-protected oligo(ethane amino)acids as building blocks for solid-phase ...

A Simple Model for Gene Targeting [PDF]
Sequence-specific binding to genomic-size DNA sequences by artificial agents is of major interest for the development of gene-targeting strategies, gene-diagnostic applications, and biotechnical tools. The binding of one such agent, peptide nucleic acid (PNA), to a randomized human genome has been modeled with statistical mass action calculations. With

A Protein Kinase Cε/Protein Kinase D3 Signalling Axis Modulates RhoA Activity During Cytokinesis
Background: Protein kinase D3 (PKD3) is a member of the PKD family that has been implicated in many intracellular signalling pathways. However, defined statements regarding PKD isoform specificity and in vivo functions are rare.

Life cycle studies of the hexose transporter of Plasmodium species and genetic validation of their essentiality [PDF]
A Plasmodium falciparum hexose transporter (PfHT) has previously been shown to be a facilitative glucose and fructose transporter. Its expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes and the use of a glucose analogue inhibitor permitted chemical validation of PfHT ...

Potent CRISPR-Cas9 inhibitors from Staphylococcus genomes. [PDF]
Anti-CRISPRs (Acrs) are small proteins that inhibit the RNA-guided DNA targeting activity of CRISPR-Cas enzymes. Encoded by bacteriophage and phage-derived bacterial genes, Acrs prevent CRISPR-mediated inhibition of phage infection and can also block ...

Targeting in Gene Therapy for Gliomas [PDF]
Cancer is a disease of a series of genes. Thus, theoretically, brain tumors could be treated by targeting their fundamental molecular defects. Currently, most of the approved clinical protocols for gene therapy involve cancer patients. Several of these protocols are designed to improve the treatment of brain tumors. In this brief report, we analyze the

In vivo armed macrophages curb liver metastasis through tumor-reactive T-cell rejuvenation
Despite recent progress in cancer treatment, liver metastases persist as an unmet clinical need. Here, we show that arming liver and tumor-associated macrophages in vivo to co-express tumor antigens (TAs), IFNα, and IL-12 unleashes robust anti-tumor ...

Efficient Gene Targeting Mediated by Adeno-Associated Virus and DNA Double-Strand Breaks [PDF]
Gene targeting is the in situ manipulation of the sequence of an endogenous gene by the introduction of homologous exogenous DNA. Presently, the rate of gene targeting is too low for it to be broadly used in mammalian somatic cell genetics or to cure ...
