Flagella disruption in Bacillus subtilis increases amylase production yield
Background Bacillus subtilis is a Gram-positive bacterium used as a cell factory for protein production. Over the last decades, the continued optimization of production strains has increased yields of enzymes, such as amylases, and made commercial ...

Selective inhibitors of trypanosomal uridylyl transferase RET1 establish druggability of RNA post-transcriptional modifications. [PDF]
Non-coding RNAs are crucial regulators for a vast array of cellular processes and have been implicated in human disease. These biological processes represent a hitherto untapped resource in our fight against disease.

CRISPR-Cas9 off-targeting assessment with nucleic acid duplex energy parameters
Background Recent experimental efforts of CRISPR-Cas9 systems have shown that off-target binding and cleavage are a concern for the system and that this is highly dependent on the selected guide RNA (gRNA) design. Computational predictions of off-targets

Integrative analyses of transcriptome sequencing identify novel functional lncRNAs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a critical role in cancer initiation and progression, and thus may mediate oncogenic or tumor suppressing effects, as well as be a new class of cancer therapeutic targets. We performed high-throughput sequencing of RNA

Long Non-Coding RNA in the Pathogenesis of Cancers
The incidence and mortality rate of cancer has been quickly increasing in the past decades. At present, cancer has become the leading cause of death worldwide. Most of the cancers cannot be effectively diagnosed at the early stage.

Two genetic codes: Repetitive syntax for active non-coding RNAs; non-repetitive syntax for the DNA archives [PDF]
Current knowledge of the RNA world indicates 2 different genetic codes being present throughout the living world. In contrast to non-coding RNAs that are built of repetitive nucleotide syntax, the sequences that serve as templates for proteins share—as ...
