DNA Repair and Mutagenesis of ADP-Ribosylated DNA by Pierisin [PDF]
Pierisin is a DNA-targeting ADP-ribosyltransferase found in cabbage white butterfly (Pieris rapae). Pierisin transfers an ADP-ribosyl moiety to the 2-amino group of the guanine residue in DNA, yielding N2-(ADP-ribos-1-yl)-2′-deoxyguanosine (N2-ADPR-dG ...

Purine Metabolism and Dystonia: Perspectives of a Long-Promised Relationship. [PDF]
Purine pool imbalance in purine metabolism disorders, such as Lesch–Nyhan disease, intersects with dystonia pathogenesis. The recent discovery of gain‐of‐function IMPDH2 pathogenic variants in patients with prominent dystonic manifestations provides new insights into the link between dystonia and purinergic system defects.

Complement C3a and C5a Receptors Are Presented in Mouse Sciatic and Human Sural Nerves and Selectively Modulate the Neuronal Function of Large-Caliber Fibers in Mice. [PDF]
Neural complement receptors modulate peripheral nerve function. C3aR is localized to paranodal glia, while C5aR1 is found in unmyelinated fibers of human and mouse peripheral nerves. Expression of both receptors in the sciatic nerve is confirmed by qPCR and Western blot.

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...
