Defect in cytosolic Neu2 sialidase abrogates lipid metabolism and impairs muscle function in vivo

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Sialic acid (SA) is present in glycoconjugates and important in cell–cell recognition, cell adhesion, and cell growth and as a receptor. Among the four mammalian sialidases, cytosolic NEU2 has a pivotal role in muscle and neuronal differentiation in ...

New PAM Improves the Single-Base Specificity of crRNA-Guided LbCas12a Nuclease

open access: yesLife, 2022
The RNA-guided Cas12a nuclease forms a complex with a CRISPR RNA (crRNA) to cleave the double-stranded DNA target. Among others, Cas12a protein from Lachnospiraceae bacterium (LbCas12a) is widely used for biomedical research.

THE PROMISE AND CHALLENGE OF THERAPEUTIC GENOME EDITING

open access: yesNature, 2020
Genome editing, which involves the precise manipulation of cellular DNA sequences to alter cell fates and organism traits, has the potential to both improve our understanding of human genetics and cure genetic disease.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the hydrothermal vent provannid snail Alviniconcha boucheti (Gastropoda: Abyssochrysoidea) from the North Fiji Basin

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The family Provannidae is endemic to chemosynthetic environments in the deep-sea. Here, we report the complete mitogenome of a provannid vent snail Alviniconcha boucheti from the North Fiji Basin for the first time. The length of mitogenome was 15,981 bp,

DNA editing in DNA/RNA hybrids by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) carry out adenosine (A) to inosine (I) editing reactions with a known requirement for duplex RNA. Here, we show that ADARs also react with DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes.

Highly efficient genome editing by CRISPR-Cpf1 using CRISPR RNA with a uridinylate-rich 3′-overhang

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Cpf1 is a promising alternative to Cas9 though indel generation efficiency is target dependent. Here the authors show that the addition of a polyU 3′ overhang can improve the efficiency of low efficiency guide RNAs.

Cas9 exo-endonuclease eliminates chromosomal translocations during genome editing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Chromosomal structural variations induced by CRISPR/Cas hinder its application in clinics. Here, the authors fuse Cas9 with optimized TREX2 to generate Cas9TX, which can prevent perfect repair and inhibit repeated cleavage.

Allele-aware chromosome-level genome assembly and efficient transgene-free genome editing for the autotetraploid cultivated alfalfa

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Artificially improving traits of cultivated alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), one of the most important forage crops, is challenging due to the lack of a reference genome and an efficient genome editing protocol, which mainly result from its autotetraploidy ...
