Acceleration of DNA Replication of Klenow Fragment by Small Resisting Force [PDF]
Chin. Phys. Lett. 2021, 38 (11): 118701, 2021 DNA polymerases are an essential class of enzymes or molecular motors that catalyze processive DNA syntheses during DNA replications. A critical issue for DNA polymerases is their molecular mechanism of processive DNA replication. We have previously proposed a model for chemomechanical coupling of DNA polymerases, based on which the predicted results ...

Density- and elongation speed-dependent error correction in RNA polymerization [PDF]
, 2021 Backtracking of RNA polymerase (RNAP) is an important pausing mechanism during DNA transcription that is part of the error correction process that enhances transcription fidelity. We model the backtracking mechanism of RNA polymerase, which usually happens when the polymerase tries to incorporate a mismatched nucleotide triphosphate.

Computational Investigations on Polymerase Actions in Gene Transcription and Replication Combining Physical Modeling and Atomistic Simulations [PDF]
Chin. Phys. B Vol. 25, No. 1 (2016) 018706, 2015 Polymerases are protein enzymes that move along nucleic acid chains and catalyze template-based polymerization reactions during gene transcription and replication. The polymerases also substantially improve transcription or replication fidelity through the non-equilibrium enzymatic cycles.

Recombinant GII.Pe-GII.4 Norovirus, Thailand, 2017–2018
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 During June 2017–December 2018, norovirus was responsible for 10.9% of acute gastroenteritis cases in Thailand. Genogroup I (GI) was found in 14% of samples, of which 12 were co-infected with genogroup II (GII).

Functional Insights into ANP32A-Dependent Influenza A Virus Polymerase Host Restriction
Cell Reports, 2017 Host restriction of influenza A virus limits pandemic emergence. The viral RNA polymerase (vPol) is an essential enzyme that must adapt for avian viruses to replicate in humans. Species differences in host ANP32A dictate adaptation: human ANP32A lacks an

Stochastic resetting in backtrack recovery by RNA polymerases [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 93, 062411 (2016), 2016 Transcription is a key process in gene expression, in which RNA polymerases produce a complementary RNA copy from a DNA template. RNA polymerization is frequently interrupted by backtracking, a process in which polymerases perform a random walk along the DNA template.
