Synthesis and Purification of Peptide Nucleic Acids [PDF]
Current Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry, 2002 AbstractPeptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are DNA analogs in which the normal phosphodiester backbone is replaced by 2‐aminoethyl glycine linkages. Hybridization of PNAs with RNA or DNA follows normal rules for Watson‐Crick base pairing and occurs with high affinity.

N-terminal proteomics assisted profiling of the unexplored translation initiation landscape in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2017 Proteogenomics is an emerging research field yet lacking a uniform method of analysis. Proteogenomic studies in which N-terminal proteomics and ribosome profiling are combined, suggest that a high number of protein start sites are currently missing in ...

Chemistry of Peptide-Oligonucleotide Conjugates: A Review
Molecules, 2021 Peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates (POCs) represent one of the increasingly successful albeit costly approaches to increasing the cellular uptake, tissue delivery, bioavailability, and, thus, overall efficiency of therapeutic nucleic acids, such as ...

Complete nucleotide sequence of the influenza B/Singapore/222/79 virus hemagglutinin gene and comparison with the B/Lee/40 Hemagglutinin [PDF]
, 1983 The complete nucleotide sequence of the hemagglutinin (HA) gene of the human type B influenza virus B/Singapore/222/79 is presented. Comparison with the only other known sequence of a B hemagglutinin (B/Lee/40) shows that antigenic drift in type B HA ...

Peptide Nucleic Acids as miRNA Target Protectors for the Treatment of Cystic Fibrosis
Molecules, 2017 Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common life shortening conditions in Caucasians. CF is caused by mutations in the CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene which result in reduced or altered CFTR functionality. Several microRNAs (miRNAs)

Interplay between RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Methodological advances in mapping transcriptome‐wide RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures have started to uncover the potential of RNP conformations in gene regulation. Competing RNA–RNA, RNA‐protein and protein–protein interactions shape the compaction and function of RNPs throughout their lifetime and may provide novel therapeutic targets in ...

Silencing disease genes in the laboratory and the clinic
, 2011 Synthetic nucleic acids are commonly used laboratory tools for modulating gene expression and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic. Progress towards nucleic acid drugs, however, has been slow and many challenges remain to be overcome before

MutS regulates access of the error-prone DNA polymerase Pol IV to replication sites: a novel mechanism for maintaining replication fidelity [PDF]
, 2016 Translesion DNA polymerases (Pol) function in the bypass of template lesions to relieve stalled replication forks but also display potentially deleterious mutagenic phenotypes that contribute to antibiotic resistance in bacteria and lead to human disease.
