Spectrophotometric and nucleic acid-binding properties of halloysite clay nanotubes and kaolinite

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Halloysite particles (HNTs) are naturally occurring aluminosilicate nanotubes of low toxicity that have shown great promise for drug and biomolecule delivery into human and animal cells.

DNA Renaturation at the Water-Phenol Interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We study DNA adsorption and renaturation in a water-phenol two-phase system, with or without shaking. In very dilute solutions, single-stranded DNA is adsorbed at the interface in a salt-dependent manner.

Replication enhancer elements within the open reading frame of tick-borne encephalitis virus and their evolution within the Flavivirus genus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We provide experimental evidence of a replication enhancer element (REE) within the capsid gene of tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV, genus Flavivirus).

Sensing of endogenous nucleic acids by ZBP1 induces keratinocyte necroptosis and skin inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Aberrant detection of endogenous nucleic acids by the immune system can cause inflammatory disease. The scaffold function of the signaling kinase RIPK1 limits spontaneous activation of the nucleic acid sensor ZBP1.

Quantification bias caused by plasmid DNA conformation in quantitative real-time PCR assay. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is the gold standard for the quantification of specific nucleic acid sequences. However, a serious concern has been revealed in a recent report: supercoiled plasmid standards cause significant over-estimation in qPCR ...

Protein-DNA interactions: statistical analysis of interatomic contacts in major and minor grooves

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2018
The interactions between protein and DNA in essence underlie all processes in a living cell. Understanding the principles of specific recognition of DNA sites will open the way to understand how these processes are controlled and to interfere in their ...

Advances in the Determination of Nucleic Acid Conformational Ensembles [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Physical Chemistry, 2014
Conformational changes in nucleic acids play a key role in the way genetic information is stored, transferred, and processed in living cells. Here, we describe new approaches that employ a broad range of experimental data, including NMR-derived chemical shifts and residual dipolar couplings, small-angle X-ray scattering, and computational approaches ...

Functional interplay between NTP leaving group and base pair recognition during RNA polymerase II nucleotide incorporation revealed by methylene substitution. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
RNA polymerase II (pol II) utilizes a complex interaction network to select and incorporate correct nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) substrates with high efficiency and fidelity.

Highly Improved Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry Detection of G-Quadruplex-Folded Oligonucleotides and Their Complexes with Small Molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
G-quadruplexes are nucleic acids structures stabilized by physiological concentration of potassium ions. Because low stability G-quadruplexes are hardly detectable by mass spectrometry, we optimized solvent conditions: isopropanol in a triethylamine ...
