Rapid clonal identification of biallelic CRISPR/Cas9 knock-ins using SNEAK PEEC
One of the challenges faced by current CRISPR/Cas9 editing strategies is the difficulty in rapidly selecting clonal populations of biallelically edited cells.

Serpentine and Vermiform Are Produced Autonomously to Fulfill Their Function in Drosophila Wings
Group I chitin deacetylases (CDAs), CDA1 and CDA2, play an essential role in cuticle formation and molting in the process of insect wing development. A recent report showed that trachea are able to take up a secreted CDA1 (serpentine, serp) produced in ...

Specificity Determination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Killer Virus Systems
Saccharomyces yeasts are widely distributed in the environment and microbiota of higher organisms. The killer phenotype of yeast, encoded by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus systems, is a valuable trait for host survival. The mutual relationship between

RNA ligase ribozymes with a small catalytic core
Catalytic RNAs, or ribozymes, catalyze diverse chemical reactions that could have sustained primordial life in the hypothetical RNA world. Many natural ribozymes and laboratory evolved ribozymes exhibit efficient catalysis mediated by elaborate catalytic

Studies on the relation between heme and nucleic acid syntheses in erythroid cell. II. Nucleic acid synthesis in erythroblast of anemic rat treated with aminopterin and bromouracil [PDF]
With the bone marrow of anemic rats, which had received the repeated injections of phenylhydrazine once a day for three to four days, the effects of aminopterin and bromouracil on the nucleic acid metabolism of erythroblasts were observed in vivo ...
