Human PrimPol mutation associated with high myopia has a DNA replication defect [PDF]
PrimPol is a primase-polymerase found in humans, and other eukaryotes, involved in bypassing lesions encountered during DNA replication. PrimPol employs both translesion synthesis and repriming mechanisms to facilitate lesion bypass by the replisome ...

Cover Picture: Locked Nucleic Acids and Intercalating Nucleic Acids in the Design of Easily Denaturing Nucleic Acids: Thermal Stability Studies (ChemBioChem 12/2004) [PDF]
The cover picture shows fully modified locked nucleic acids (LNAs, orange) and intercalating nucleic acids (INAs®, red) with several insertions of (R)‐1‐O‐(1‐pyrenylmethyl)glycerol, both displaying higher binding affinity to native DNA (white) than to each other. In their full paper on p. 1673 ff, E. B. Pedersen et al.

Development of a nucleic acid lateral flow immunoassay for simultaneous detection of Listeria spp. and Listeriamonocytogenes in food [PDF]
We present a new nucleic acid lateral flow immunoassay (NALFIA) for the assessment of listeria contamination. The detection procedure starts with enrichment of sample in Half Fraser broth (24 h). Following isolation of DNA, a duplex PCR is performed with

A conformational RNA zipper promotes intron ejection during non-conventional XBP1 mRNA splicing. [PDF]
The kinase/endonuclease IRE1 is the most conserved signal transducer of the unfolded protein response (UPR), an intracellular signaling network that monitors and regulates the protein folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Easily denaturing nucleic acids derived from intercalating nucleic acids: thermal stability studies, dual duplex invasion and inhibition of transcription start [PDF]
The bulged insertions of (R)-1-O-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)glycerol (monomer P) in two complementary 8mer DNA strands (intercalating nucleic acids) opposite to each other resulted in the formation of an easily denaturing duplex, which had lower thermal stability (21.0 degrees C) than the wild-type double-stranded DNA (dsDNA, 26.0 degrees C), but both modified ...
