Congenital microcephaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The underlying etiologies of genetic congenital microcephaly are complex and multifactorial. Recently, with the exponential growth in the identification and characterization of novel genetic causes of congenital microcephaly, there has been a ...

Bottom‐up Strategies for Generating Polymer Protocells That Mimic Cellular Communication

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This review focuses on polymeric protocells produced using a bottom‐up approach. Polymer‐based assemblies guarantee stability and designability by adjusting the properties of the amphiphilic copolymers used. The review covers protocell architectures, production, and their intra‐ and intercellular communication mechanisms.

Exercise serum promotes DNA damage repair and remodels gene expression in colon cancer cells

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Exercise releases bioactive molecules into the bloodstream that can directly slow cancer cell growth. In colon cancer, this may help limit disease progression. Here, using colon cancer cells, the authors investigated the effects of exercise‐conditioned human serum on DNA repair mechanisms. Notably, acute exercise in humans elicited systemic

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Polynucleotide Phosphorylase Contributes to Ciprofloxacin Resistance by Regulating PrtR

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen that causes various acute and chronic infections. It is intrinsically resistant to a variety of antibiotics. However, production of pyocins during SOS response sensitizes P.

Template-directed biopolymerization: tape-copying Turing machines

open access: yes, 2012
DNA, RNA and proteins are among the most important macromolecules in a living cell. These molecules are polymerized by molecular machines. These natural nano-machines polymerize such macromolecules, adding one monomer at a time, using another linear ...

A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Viral Evolution and Adaptation as a Multivariate Branching Process

open access: yes, 2013
In the present work we analyze the problem of adaptation and evolution of RNA virus populations, by defining the basic stochastic model as a multivariate branching process in close relation with the branching process advanced by Demetrius, Schuster and ...
