Reactive oxygen species are signaling molecules that modulate plant reproduction
Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can serve as signaling molecules that are essential for plant growth and development but abiotic stress can lead to ROS increases to supraoptimal levels resulting in cellular damage. To ensure efficient ROS signaling, cells have machinery to locally synthesize ROS to initiate cellular responses and to scavenge ROS

Covalently trapping MutS on DNA to study DNA mismatch recognition and signaling [PDF]
The DNA repair protein MutS forms clamp-like structures on DNA that search for and recognize base mismatches leading to ATP-transformed signaling clamps.

Inhibition of deoxyribonucleases by phosphorothioate groups in oligodeoxyribonucleotides
The Rp- and Sp-diastereomers of the phosphorothioate-containing oligonucleotide d[ApAp(S)ApA] have been synthesized. They and the tetramer d[ApApApA] were tested as substrates for staphylococcal nuclease, DNase II and spleen phosphodiesterase. For digestions with DNase I these oligonucleotides were converted to the 5'-phosphorylated derivates.

Stimulus‐Responsive Hydrogels as Drug Delivery Systems for Inflammation Targeted Therapy
Deregulated Inflammation is one of the most common diseases in human health, and its management remains a significant challenge. Notably, stimulus‐responsive hydrogels have great potential to break through the predicament faced by severe inflammations treatment.

Next Generation Gene Synthesis by targeted retrieval of bead-immobilized, sequence verified DNA clones from a high throughput pyrosequencing device [PDF]
The setup of synthetic biological systems involving millions of bases is still limited by the required high quality of synthetic DNA. Important drivers to further open up the field are the accuracy and scale of chemical DNA synthesis and the downstream ...

Plant ribosome shunting in vitro [PDF]
It has been proposed that cauliflower mosaic virus 35S RNA with its 600 nt long leader uses an unusual translation process (the translational shunt). A wheat germ in vitro translation assay was used to improve the study of this mechanism.

Chemical and enzymatic biotin-labeling of oligodeoxyribonucleotides
Biotin has been converted to 2-(biotinylamido)ethanol and condensed to phosphorylated oligonucleotides in a solid phase synthesis. The 5'-biotinylated oligonucleotides were enzymatically coupled to other DNA fragments by T4 DNA ligase or T4 RNA ligase. The hybridization properties of such biotin-labeled oligonucleotide probes were studied.
