In the nascent processes of the beginnings and evolution of life, nucleobases and especially purines, ribonucleos(t)ides and primitive RNAs have been continuously modified. A RNA‐peptide world and key metabolic pathways probably have emerged from the corresponding chemical modifications resulting from adenine deamination, purine alkylation and ...

Abstract Introduction There are several cannabidiol (CBD) transdermal patches available on the market. However, none are FDA‐approved. Furthermore, not much evidence has been published about CBD release and skin permeation from such patches, so the effectiveness and reliability remain unclear. Objectives We aimed to develop a method to determine the in

Bilayer Graphene Lateral Contacts for DNA Sequencing [PDF]
Translocation of DNA through a nanopore with embedded electrodes is at the centre of new rapid inexpensive sequencing methods which allow distinguishing the four nucleobases by their different electronic structure. However, the subnanometer separation between nucleotides in DNA requires ultra-sharp probes.

ABSTRACT Ovarian cancer (OC) is a deadly disease and lacks a precise marker for diagnosis worldwide. Our previous work has shown the overexpression of flotillin‐1 (FLOT1) in OC tissue. To improve diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy, we evaluated the serum level of FLOT1 in OC patients and found that the serum concentration of FLOT1 as well as CA125 was

Contemporary Perspectives on Chronic Renal Disorders
ABSTRACT The prevalence of renal diseases and its associated burden on healthcare have tremendously risen in the past few years. From simple markers assessing kidney function, current renal research delves into understanding the diseases at the cellular and molecular levels and not just at treating, but at improving quality of life, arresting ...

Abstract Despite differences in behaviors and living conditions, vertebrate organisms share the great majority of proteins, often with subtle differences in amino acid sequence. Here, we present a simple way to analyze the difference in amino acid occurrence by comparing highly homologous proteins on a subproteome level between several vertebrate model

Toward new gold(III) anticancer agents. Herein, we report on an indazole‐based gold(III) carboxamide pincer complex exhibiting significant cytotoxicity, likely mediated through dual interactions with DNA. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the complex binds to the DNA and forms specific interactions with nucleotide bases.

Mutant K‐Ras drives cancer through its membrane localization, which requires post‐translational modification by farnesyltransferase (FTase). FTase attaches farnesyl to the K‐Ras C‐terminal CVIM tetrapeptide, enabling membrane binding. However, K‐Ras can also undergo compensatory geranylgeranylation by geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I), making ...
