The biological essence of synthetic lethality: Bringing new opportunities for cancer therapy
MedComm – Oncology, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2024.Synthetic lethality exploits vulnerabilities in cancer cells, targeting aberrant pathways resulting from genetic mutations or pharmacological interventions. This strategy extends beyond the tumor cells to include the tumor microenvironment, such as stromal cells and signaling molecules, to enhance treatment responses and eradicate cancer.

Protein Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, February 2024.Abstract Escherichia coli is one of the most widely utilized hosts for production of recombinant membrane proteins (MPs). Bacterial MP production, however, is usually accompanied by severe toxicity and low‐level volumetric accumulation. In previous work, we had discovered that co‐expression of RraA, an inhibitor of the RNA‐degrading activity of RNase E,

Hamster leukemia virus: lack of endogenous DNA synthesis and unique structure of its DNA polymerase [PDF]
, 1974 Infectious hamster leukemia virus (HaLV) contains a DNA polymerase different from those of murine and avian viruses. No endogenous reaction directed by the 60 to 70S RNA of HaLV could be demonstrated in detergenttreated HaLV virions, nor could the ...

miRNAs as Influencers of Cell-Cell Communication in Tumor Microenvironment [PDF]
, 2020 microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level, inducing the degradation of the target mRNA or translational repression.

Maturation of Polycistronic mRNAs by the Endoribonuclease RNase Y and Its Associated Y-Complex in Bacillus Subtilis [PDF]
, 2018 Endonucleolytic cleavage within polycistronic mRNAs can lead to differential stability, and thus discordant abundance, among cotranscribed genes. RNase Y, the major endonuclease for mRNA decay in Bacillus subtilis, was originally identified for its ...

The role of ribonucleases in regulating global mRNA levels in the model organism Thermus thermophilus HB8 [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: RNA metabolism, including RNA synthesis and RNA degradation, is one of the most conserved biological systems and has been intensively studied; however, the degradation network of ribonucleases (RNases) and RNA substrates is not fully ...

Yersiniae Virulence Factors: Type III Secretion System [PDF]
, 2008 Several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria have evolved a complex protein secretion system termed the Type Three Secretion System (TTSS) to deliver bacterial effector proteins into host-cells that then modulate host-cellular functions.
