Rapid capture of DNA targets

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2008
A rapid capture technique was developed to efficiently isolate specific DNA targets from a variety of genomes. The specificity can be easily adapted to any target for which partial sequence is known, allowing for the isolation of a wide set of target ...

An efficient algorithm for the stochastic simulation of the hybridization of DNA to microarrays

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2009
Background Although oligonucleotide microarray technology is ubiquitous in genomic research, reproducibility and standardization of expression measurements still concern many researchers. Cross-hybridization between microarray probes and non-target ssDNA

Dynamics and thermodynamics of protein-ligand interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Complex networks of protein-ligand interactions underpin cellular function and communication. Disease can arise from disruption of these networks through the alteration of protein-ligand interaction affinities, for example by protein mutation or ligand ...

Novel Selenium-modified Nucleic Acids For Structural and Functional Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Nucleic acids, as one of the most important macromolecules in living systems, play critical roles in storing, transferring, regulating genetic information, directing proteins synthesis, and catalysis. Understanding the structure of nucleic acid can bring

Thermodynamics of RNA duplexes modified with unlocked nucleic acid nucleotides [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2010
Thermodynamics provides insights into the influence of modified nucleotide residues on stability of nucleic acids and is crucial for designing duplexes with given properties. In this article, we introduce detailed thermodynamic analysis of RNA duplexes modified with unlocked nucleic acid (UNA) nucleotide residues.

Modified RNA triplexes: Thermodynamics, structure and biological potential

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The occurrence of triplexes in vivo has been well documented and is determined by the presence of long homopurine-homopyrimidine tracts. The formation of these structures is the result of conformational changes that occur in the duplex, which allow the ...

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

ProTherm and ProNIT: thermodynamic databases for proteins and protein-nucleic acid interactions [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2006
ProTherm and ProNIT are two thermodynamic databases that contain experimentally determined thermodynamic parameters of protein stability and protein-nucleic acid interactions, respectively. The current versions of both the databases have considerably increased the total number of entries and enhanced search interface with added new fields, improved ...
