RNA polymerase pushing [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Chemistry, 2011
Molecular motors can exhibit Brownian ratchet or power stroke mechanisms. These mechanistic categories are related to transition state position: An early transition state suggests that chemical energy is stored and then released during the step (stroke) while a late transition state suggests that the release of chemical energy rectifies thermally ...

Plant DNA Polymerases [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Maintenance of genome integrity is a key process in all organisms. DNA polymerases (Pols) are central players in this process as they are in charge of the faithful reproduction of the genetic information, as well as of DNA repair. Interestingly, all eukaryotes possess a large repertoire of polymerases.

Characteristics of Pan-Cancer Patients With Ultrahigh Tumor Mutation Burden

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundTumor mutation burden has been proven to be a good predictor for the efficacy of immunotherapy, especially in patients with hypermutation. However, most research focused on the analysis of hypermutation in individual tumors, and there is a lack

RNA Polymerases of Maize: Nuclear RNA Polymerases [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1971
Two DNA-dependent RNA polymerases of nuclear origin have been purified from leaves of Zea mays . The two enzymes can be separated on DEAE-cellulose columns. Enzymes I and II are eluted with 0.08 and 0.20 M (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 , respectively.

Mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 polymerase stalling by remdesivir

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Remdesivir is the only FDA-approved drug for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. The active form of remdesivir acts as a nucleoside analog and inhibits the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2.

Compound Heterozygosity for a Novel Frameshift Variant Causing Fatal Infantile Liver Failure and Genotype–Phenotype Correlation of POLG c.3286C>T Variant

open access: yesInternational Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2021
A variant in the POLG gene is the leading cause of a heterogeneous group of mitochondrial disorders. No definitive treatment is currently available. Prenatal and newborn screening have the potential to improve clinical outcome of patients affected with ...

Primer-BLAST: A tool to design target-specific primers for polymerase chain reaction

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Choosing appropriate primers is probably the single most important factor affecting the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Specific amplification of the intended target requires that primers do not have matches to other targets in certain orientations and ...

Functional Insights into ANP32A-Dependent Influenza A Virus Polymerase Host Restriction

open access: yesCell 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
