Are guanine nucleotide binding proteins a distinct class of regulatory proteins? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Proteins which bind guanine nucleotides are found in a diverse set of key regulatory positions. They are involved in hormone action, visual transduction, protein synthesis and microtubule assembly. In addition to their ability to bind guanine nucleotides

Inhibition of Subsets of G Protein-coupled Receptors by Empty Mutants of G Protein α Subunits in Go, G11, and G16 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We previously reported that the xanthine nucleotide binding Goα mutant, GoαX, inhibited the activation of Gi-coupled receptors. We constructed similar mutations in G11α and G16α and characterized their nucleotide binding and receptor interaction.

Chromatin structure and context-dependent sequence features control prime editing efficiency

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Prime editing (PE) is a highly versatile CRISPR–Cas9 genome editing technique. The current constructs, however, have variable efficiency and may require laborious experimental optimization.

Insights into DNA platination within unusual structural settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
2D [1H, 15N] HSQC NMR spectroscopy has been used to monitor reaction and product formation between [Pt(15NH3)2I2] and nucleic acids possessing irregular topologies and containing site specific phosphorothioate substitution in the phosphodiester backbone.

Electronic signature of DNA nucleotides via transverse transport

open access: yes, 2004
We report theoretical studies of charge transport in single-stranded DNA in the direction perpendicular to the backbone axis. We find that, if the electrodes which sandwich the DNA have the appropriate spatial width, each nucleotide carries a unique ...

Molecular dissection of the domain architecture and catalytic activities of human PrimPol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
PrimPol is a primase–polymerase involved in nuclear and mitochondrial DNA replication in eukaryotic cells. Although PrimPol is predicted to possess an archaeo-eukaryotic primase and a UL52-like zinc finger domain, the role of these domains has not been ...

Dampening of neurotransmitter action: molecular similarity within the melatonin structure

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2018
Objectives. Melatonin initiates physiologic and therapeutic responses in various tissues through binding to poorly defined MT receptors regulated by G-proteins and purine nucleotides.

SARS-CoV-2 Nsp14 mediates the effects of viral infection on the host cell transcriptome

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Viral infection involves complex set of events orchestrated by multiple viral proteins. To identify functions of SARS-CoV-2 proteins, we performed transcriptomic analyses of cells expressing individual viral proteins.

Long range correlations in DNA : scaling properties and charge transfer efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We address the relation between long range correlations and charge transfer efficiency in aperiodic artificial or genomic DNA sequences. Coherent charge transfer through the HOMO states of the guanine nucleotide is studied using the transmission approach,

Bacillus anthracis edema factor substrate specificity: evidence for new modes of action [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.
