Site Selective Antibody-Oligonucleotide Conjugation via Microbial Transglutaminase. [PDF]
Nucleic Acid Therapeutics (NATs), including siRNAs and AntiSense Oligonucleotides (ASOs), have great potential to drug the undruggable genome. Targeting siRNAs and ASOs to specific cell types of interest has driven dramatic improvement in efficacy and ...

DNA methylation profiling of primary neuroblastoma tumors using methyl-CpG-binding domain sequencing [PDF]
Comprehensive genome-wide DNA methylation studies in neuroblastoma (NB), a childhood tumor that originates from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system, are scarce. Recently, we profiled the DNA methylome of 102 well-annotated primary NB tumors
