Rewriting Human History and Empowering Indigenous Communities with Genome Editing Tools. [PDF]
, 2020 Appropriate empirical-based evidence and detailed theoretical considerations should be used for evolutionary explanations of phenotypic variation observed in the field of human population genetics (especially Indigenous populations). Investigators within

Nature Communications, 2023 Genome instability is a feature of cancer cells, transcription being an important source of DNA damage. This is in large part associated with R-loops, which hamper replication, especially at head-on transcription-replication conflicts (TRCs).

Insights into DNA substrate selection by APOBEC3G from structural, biochemical, and functional studies. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Human apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme-catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (A3) proteins are a family of cytidine deaminases that catalyze the conversion of deoxycytidine (dC) to deoxyuridine (dU) in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA).

From Antisense RNA to RNA Modification: Therapeutic Potential of RNA-Based Technologies
Biomedicines, 2021 Therapeutic oligonucleotides interact with a target RNA via Watson-Crick complementarity, affecting RNA-processing reactions such as mRNA degradation, pre-mRNA splicing, or mRNA translation.

DNA editing in DNA/RNA hybrids by adenosine deaminases that act on RNA. [PDF]
, 2017 Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) carry out adenosine (A) to inosine (I) editing reactions with a known requirement for duplex RNA. Here, we show that ADARs also react with DNA/RNA hybrid duplexes.

Adenosine to inosine editing by ADAR2 requires formation of a ternary complex on the GluR-B R/G site [PDF]
, 2002 RNA editing by members of the ADAR (adenosine deaminase that acts on RNA) enzyme family involves hydrolytic deamination of adenosine to inosine within the context of a double-stranded pre-mRNA substrate.

Microbial Biotechnology, 2022 Summary The ability of T7 RNA polymerase (RNAPT7) fusions to cytosine deaminases (CdA) for entering C➔T changes in any DNA segment downstream of a T7 promoter was exploited for hyperdiversification of defined genomic portions of Pseudomonas putida KT2440.

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Cancer genomes harbor numerous genomic alterations and many cancers accumulate thousands of nucleotide sequence variations. A prominent fraction of these mutations arises as a consequence of the off-target activity of DNA/RNA editing cytosine deaminases ...

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023 RNA editing holds great promise for the therapeutic correction of pathogenic, single nucleotide variants (SNV) in the human transcriptome since it does not risk creating permanent off-targets edits in the genome and has the potential for innovative ...
