Deleterious mitochondrial DNA point mutations are overrepresented in Drosophila expressing a proofreading-defective DNA polymerase γ.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations cause severe maternally inherited syndromes and the accumulation of somatic mtDNA mutations is implicated in aging and common diseases.

Probing the Cancer Mutational Landscape of KMT2 Regulatory Subunits

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Pipeline to characterize the KMT2 cancer mutational landscape starts with querying genomic databases (top left) for mutations mapping to ASH2L, RbBP5, WDR5, and DPY‐30. Subsequent steps include the expression of these mutants in cell (bottom left), their systemic purification and biochemical characterization using isothermal titration calorimetry ...

Engineering Compact Base Editors by AlphaFold‐Guided Mutation Scan and Escherichia coli‐Based Tri‐Selection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.
A miniaturized deaminase SsdAtox was scanned with AlphaFold to identify DNA binding pocket hot spots. Site‐saturation mutagenesis at gatekeeper residue K31 yielded ten‐fold activity enhancement. Trinity Screen, an E. coli‐based three‐in‐one platform selecting for high activity and reduced double‐strand breaks, enabled combinatorial evolution at DNA ...

Inactivation of a Mismatch-Repair System Diversifies Genotypic Landscape of Escherichia coli During Adaptive Laboratory Evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) is used to find causal mutations that underlie improved strain performance under the applied selection pressure. ALE studies have revealed that mutator populations tend to outcompete their non-mutator counterparts ...

Post-translational decrease in respiratory chain proteins in the Polg mutator mouse brain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Mitochondrial DNA damage is thought to be a causal contributor to aging as mice with inactivating mutations in polymerase gamma (Polg) develop a progeroid phenotype.

Mutator Circuit for Memcapacitor Emulator Using Operational Transconductance Amplifiers

open access: yesElektronika ir Elektrotechnika
In recent years, interest in memelements, including memcapacitors, has increased significantly following the realisation of memristors. This paper presents the design and implementation of a memcapacitor circuit based on operational transconductance ...

Comprehensive Analysis of Structure Activity Relationships in Quinoxaline Derivatives Covering Antimicrobial Applications

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 14, 13 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as one of the most critical global health challenges, undermining the clinical efficacy of existing antibiotics and threatening modern therapeutic strategies. The ongoing misuse and overuse of antimicrobial agents have accelerated the evolution of resistant bacterial strains and parasites ...

A concept for a new approach to combined oral contraception from adolescence to perimenopause: Continuous use of the oral GnRH antagonist Relugolix and the fetal estrogen Estetrol

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 4, Page 568-574, April 2026.
It is expected that the relugolix estetrol combination RE4W will enable women to control their fertility and prevent menstrual cycle related problems, while offering a smooth transition through perimenopause into the postmenopause and decrease the risk of breast cancer.

Effects of calorie restriction on the lifespan and healthspan of POLG mitochondrial mutator mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations are thought to have a causative role in age-related pathologies. We have shown previously that mitochondrial mutator mice (PolgD257A/D257A), harboring a proofreading-deficient version of the mtDNA polymerase gamma ...
