Precise Genome Editing in miRNA Target Site via Gene Targeting and Subsequent Single-Strand-Annealing-Mediated Excision of the Marker Gene in Plants

Frontiers in Genome Editing, 2021
Gene targeting (GT) enables precise genome modification—e.g., the introduction of base substitutions—using donor DNA as a template. Combined with clean excision of the selection marker used to select GT cells, GT is expected to become a standard ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Hepatic secretion of apoB-100 is impaired in hypobetalipoproteinemic mice with an apoB-38.9-specifying allele

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Apolipoprotein B (apoB) truncation-specifying mutations cause familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL). Lipoprotein kinetics studies have shown that production rates of apoB-100 are reduced by 70–80% in heterozygous FHBL humans, instead of the expected 50%

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

The Gene Targeting Approach of Small Fragment Homologous Replacement (SFHR) Alters the Expression Patterns of DNA Repair and Cell Cycle Control Genes

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2016
Cellular responses and molecular mechanisms activated by exogenous DNA that invades cells are only partially understood. This limits the practical use of gene targeting strategies.

A Myelin Proteolipid Protein-LacZ Fusion Protein Is Developmentally Regulated and Targeted to the Myelin Membrane in Transgenic Mice [PDF]

, 1993
Transgenic mice were generated with a fusion gene carrying a portion of the murine myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) gene, including the first intron, fused to the E. coli LacZ gene.

A CRISPR–Cas9 gene drive targeting doublesex causes complete population suppression in caged Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes

Nature Biotechnology, 2018
In the human malaria vector Anopheles gambiae, the gene doublesex (Agdsx) encodes two alternatively spliced transcripts, dsx-female (AgdsxF) and dsx-male (AgdsxM), that control differentiation of the two sexes.

Mechanisms and kinetic assays of aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Accurate protein synthesis is crucial for life. The key players are aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases (AARSs), which read the genetic code by pairing cognate amino acids and tRNAs. AARSs establish high amino acid selectivity by employing physicochemical limits in molecular recognition.

Single‐cell insights into the role of T cells in B‐cell malignancies

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Single‐cell technologies have transformed our understanding of T cell–tumor cell interactions in B‐cell malignancies, revealing new T‐cell subsets, functional states, and immune evasion mechanisms. This Review synthesizes these findings, highlighting the roles of T cells in pathogenesis, progression, and therapy response, and underscoring their ...
