Plant mitochondria possess a short-patch base excision DNA repair pathway [PDF]
Despite constant threat of oxidative damage, sequence drift in mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA usually remains very low in plant species, indicating efficient defense and repair.

High glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) activity is one factor contributing to multidrug resistance (MDR) in breast cancer. Enforced GCS overexpression has been shown to disrupt ceramide-induced apoptosis and to confer resistance to doxorubicin.

Gas-phase dissociation of oligoribonucleotides and their analogs studied by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]
Oligoribonucleotides (RNA) and modified oligonucleotides were subjected to low-energy collision-induced dissociation in a hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer to investigate their fragmentation pathways.

Sindbis virus ts103 has a mutation in glycoprotein E2 that leads to defective assembly of virions [PDF]
Sindbis virus mutant ts103 is aberrant in the assembly of virus particles. During virus budding, proper nucleocapsid-glycoprotein interactions fail to occur such that particles containing many nucleocapsids are formed, and the final yield of virus is low.

G-quadruplex DNA aptamers and their ligands: Structure, function and application [PDF]
Highly specific and tight-binding nucleic acid aptamers have been selected against a variety of molecular targets for over 20 years. A significant proportion of these oligonucleotides display G-quadruplex structures, particularly for DNA aptamers, that ...

Sequence-specific cleavage of double helical DNA by triple helix formation [PDF]
Homopyrimidine oligodeoxyribonucleotides with EDTA-Fe attached at a single position bind the corresponding homopyrimidine-homopurine tracts within large double-stranded DNA by triple helix formation and cleave at that site.
