Repair of Alkylated Bacteriophage T4 Deoxyribonucleic Acid by a Mechanism Involving Polynucleotide Ligase [PDF]
Methyl methanesulfate-induced lesions in bacteriophage T4 are repaired primarily by a mechanism involving polynucleotide ligase. Apparently, other recombinational and ultraviolet repair functions aren't involved.

Abstract Lung cancer is the leading cause of global cancer‐related morbidity and mortality, with tobacco smoking as its strongest risk factor. Nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (NRF2) is a redox‐regulated transcription factor frequently dysregulated in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), leading to aggressive disease and resistance to therapy.

The 2'-5' RNA Ligase of Escherichia coli: Purification, Cloning, and Genomic Disruption [PDF]
An RNA ligase previously detected in extracts of Escherichia coli is capable of joining Saccharomyces cerevisiae tRNA splicing intermediates in the absence of ATP to form a 2-5 phosphodiester linkage (Greer, C., Javor, B., and Abelson, J. (1983) Cell 33,

Efficient and specific gene knockdown by small interfering RNAs produced in bacteria [PDF]
Synthetic small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are an indispensable tool to investigate gene function in eukaryotic cells1,2 and may be used for therapeutic purposes to knockdown genes implicated in disease3. Thus far, most synthetic siRNAs have been produced

In this study, we identified an NSUN6‐dependent m5C‐modified tsRNA, m5C‐tRF3b CysGCA‐23 (mtRC), that is downregulated in BC and inversely correlated with disease progression. Mechanistically, mtRC suppresses BC malignancy by stabilizing RBM4, attenuating glycolysis, and thereby limiting H3K18 lactylation–mediated activation of IL1RAP and VASH2 ...

The role of the mammalian DNA end-processing enzyme polynucleotide kinase 3'-phosphatase in spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 pathogenesis [PDF]
DNA strand-breaks (SBs) with non-ligatable ends are generated by ionizing radiation, oxidative stress, various chemotherapeutic agents, and also as base excision repair (BER) intermediates.

Generation of Cloned Sheep Lacking Galactose‐α1,3‐Galactose and N‐Glycolylneuraminic Acid Antigens
ABSTRACT Livestock have long been regarded as a potential source of donor organs to alleviate the global organ shortage for transplantation. Sheep have a similar anatomy to humans, providing the standard model for demonstrating biocompatibility and performance of biological heart valves to obtain regulatory approval for their use in transplantation ...

Sister chromatid telomere fusions, but not NHEJ-mediated inter-chromosomal telomere fusions, occur independently of DNA ligases 3 and 4 [PDF]
Telomeres shorten with each cell division and can ultimately become substrates for non-homologous end-joining repair, leading to large-scale genomic rearrangements of the kind frequently observed in human cancers. We have characterised over 1400 telomere

Preserving DNAzyme Stability and Activity in Stool Samples for Clinical Diagnostics
A RNA‐cleaving DNAzymes often lose activity in stool due to extensive nuclease‐mediated degradation. This work introduces a simple heparin‐based treatment that preserves DNAzyme integrity and catalytic function in this highly challenging matrix, enabling reliable pathogen‐responsive signaling in stool samples.

cDNAs encoding the large subunit of human replication factor C [PDF]
Replication factor C (RFC) is a multisubunit, DNA polymerase accessory protein required for the coordinated synthesis of both DNA strands during simian virus 40 DNA replication in vitro. Previous studies have shown that RFC is a DNA-dependent ATPase that
