Diversity of RNA-Binding Proteins Modulating Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Protein Expression in the Maturing Mammalian Oocyte

open access: yesCells, 2020
The oocyte faces a particular challenge in terms of gene regulation. When oocytes resume meiosis at the end of the growth phase and prior to ovulation, the condensed chromatin state prevents the transcription of genes as they are required.

Analysis of lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in diabetic peripheral neuropathy based on weighted gene co-expression network analysis

open access: yesAll Life, 2023
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. Recent studies have explored the involvement of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in diabetes, but its specific role in DPN development remains unclear.

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Translational regulation of human papillomavirus mRNAs in carcinogenesis: old questions and new insights

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Persistent infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) is a major etiological factor in the development of cervical cancer, which ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

DNA and RNA Vaccines: Current Status, Quality Requirements and Specific Aspects of Preclinical Studies

open access: yesБиопрепараты: Профилактика, диагностика, лечение, 2019
This review focuses on DNA and RNA vaccines whose potential use was first considered at the end of the 20th century. However, not a single bacterial plasmid-based or mRNA vaccine has been used since that time in public healthcare for the prevention of ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

A workflow to define structural classes and classify nucleic acids circular dichroism spectra

open access: yesQRB Discovery
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a widely utilized technique for studying the structures of chiral molecules, including nucleic acids. It is particularly valued for its ability to quickly probe structural changes in these biomolecules. Despite its
