Decoding Mycoplasma Nucleases: Biological Functions and Pathogenesis

Toxins
Nucleases are critical metabolic enzymes expressed by mycoplasmas to acquire nucleic acid precursors from the host for their parasitic existence. Certain nucleases, either membrane-bound or secreted, not only contribute to the growth of mycoplasmas but ...

Modification of Purine and Pyrimidine Nucleosides by Direct C-H Bond Activation

Molecules, 2015
Transition metal-catalyzed modifications of the activated heterocyclic bases of nucleosides as well as DNA or RNA fragments employing traditional cross-coupling methods have been well-established in nucleic acid chemistry.

Non‐enzymatic glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway‐like reactions in a plausible Archean ocean

Molecular Systems Biology, 2014
The reaction sequences of central metabolism, glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway provide essential precursors for nucleic acids, amino acids and lipids. However, their evolutionary origins are not yet understood.

Defects in germinal center selection in SLE

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
Germinal centers (GCs) are the primary site at which clonal expansion and affinity maturation of B cells occurs. B cells encounter antigen and receive T cell help in the GC light zone (LZ) and then migrate to the dark zone where they proliferate and ...

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

ADP‐ribosylation: An emerging regulator of the epigenome

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ADP‐ribosylation has emerged as a dynamic epigenetic signaling mechanism that modifies histones and chromatin‐associated proteins. Through coordinated PARylation and MARylation, it integrates with other histone modifications to regulate chromatin structure, transcription factor activity, and gene expression, influencing genome function and disease ...
