Amplifiable hybridization probes containing a molecular switch
Molecular and Cellular Probes, 1997 In order to reduce background signals in Q beta replicase-mediated bioassays, a target-dependent probe amplification strategy has been proposed that utilizes recombinant RNA hybridization probes that contain an inserted molecular switch. A molecular switch is an internal region of the probe that undergoes a conformational change when the probe ...

SmallTalk: a novel small‐sized fusion tag for peptide expression and purification
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The SmallTalk fusion tag allows for the efficient expression and purification of soluble recombinant proteins or peptides in Escherichia coli. Testing with SmallTalk‐GFP confirmed that the proteins were soluble and folded correctly, while SmallTalk‐Bin1b maintained its antimicrobial activity against various bacterial isolates. This streamlined workflow

Rapid generation of chromosome-specific alphoid DNA probes using the polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
, 1992 Non-isotopic in situ hybridization of chromosome-specific alphoid DNA probes has become a potent tool in the study of numerical aberrations of specific human chromosomes at all stages of the cell cycle. In this paper, we describe approaches for the rapid

Analysis of Treacher Collins syndrome 4‐associated mutations in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Fission yeast models carrying Treacher Collins syndrome type 4‐associated mutations reveal that impaired processivity of RNA polymerase I leads to defective rRNA transcription. This study highlights the essential role of a conserved arginine residue in Pol I elongation and provides mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of ribosomopathies.

Hybridization of RNA Probes v1
, 2020 Over the past decade a plethora of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been identified, initiating an explosion in RNA research. Although RNA sequencing methods provide unsurpassed insights into ncRNA distribution and expression, detailed information on structure and processing are harder to extract from sequence data.

TMC4 localizes to multiple taste cell types in the mouse taste papillae
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Transmembrane channel‐like 4 (TMC4), a voltage‐dependent chloride channel, plays a critical role in amiloride‐insensitive salty taste transduction. TMC4 is broadly expressed in all mature taste cell types, suggesting a possible involvement of multiple cell types in this pathway.
