Exchange reactions of poly(arylene ether ketone) dithioketals with aliphatic diols: formation and deprotection of poly(arylene ether ketal)s [PDF]
The dithioketal derivatives of industrially important, semi-crystalline poly(arylene ether ketone)s undergo facile exchange with aliphatic diols in the presence of N-bromo-succinimide to give a range of novel poly(arylene ether ketal)s.

The Ccr4-Not complex removes mRNA poly(A) tails to regulate eukaryotic mRNA stability and translation. RNA-binding proteins contribute to specificity by interacting with both Ccr4-Not and target mRNAs, but this is not fully understood.

Hemocompatibility poly (lactic acid) nanostructures: A bird’s eye view [PDF]
The usage of clinical devices in the cardiovascular treatment, hemodialyze system and other biomedical applications has improved recently. Direct contacts of biomaterials like poly(lactic acid) biopolymer with blood result in the activating of platelets,

Extensive research in the past decade has brought mRNA closer to the clinical realization of its therapeutic potential. One common structural feature for all cellular messenger RNAs is a poly(A) tail, which can either be brought in cotranscriptionally ...

A Raman spectroscopic study of the interaction between nucleotides and the DNA binding protein gp32 of bacteriophage T4 [PDF]
Raman spectra of the bacteriophage T4 denaturing protein gp32, its complex with the polynucleotides poly(rA), poly(dA), poly(dT), poly(rU), and poly(rC), and with the oligonucleotides (dA)8 and (dA)2, were recorded and interpreted.

Preparation and Properties of an Analogue of Poly(A) and Poly(G): Poly(isoguanylic acid) [PDF]
Isoguanosine-5'-pyrosphosphate, in the presence of an oligonucleotide primer, was polymerized by Escherichia coli polynucleotide phosphorylase under conditions analogous to those required for polymerization of 5'-GMP. The resulting poly(isoguanylic acid), poly(isoG), was a multistranded helix with a stability considerably higher than that of poly(G ...

Short Poly(A) Tails are a Conserved Feature of Highly Expressed Genes
Poly(A) tails are important elements in mRNA translation and stability, although recent genome-wide studies have concluded that poly(A) tail length is generally not associated with translational efficiency in nonembryonic cells.

K-theory of virtually poly-surface groups [PDF]
In this paper we generalize the notion of strongly poly-free group to a larger class of groups, we call them strongly poly-surface groups and prove that the Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture of Farrell and Jones corresponding to the stable topological ...

Sequence specific binding of beta carboline alkaloid harmalol with deoxyribonucleotides: binding heterogeneity, conformational, thermodynamic and cytotoxic aspects. [PDF]
Base dependent binding of the cytotoxic alkaloid harmalol to four synthetic polynucleotides, poly(dA).poly(dT), poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT), poly(dG).poly(dC) and poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) was examined by various photophysical and calorimetric studies, and ...

The intrinsic structure of poly(A) RNA determines the specificity of Pan2 and Caf1 deadenylases
The 3′ poly(A) tail of messenger RNA is fundamental to regulating eukaryotic gene expression. Shortening of the poly(A) tail, termed deadenylation, reduces transcript stability and inhibits translation.
