The DNA Binding Properties of the Parsley bZIP Transcription Factor CPRF4a Are Regulated by Light [PDF]
The common plant regulatory factors (CPRFs) from parsley are transcription factors with a basic leucine zipper motif that bind to cis-regulatory elements frequently found in promoters of light-regulated genes.

Hypothesis: Homologous recombination depends on parallel search [PDF]
It is not known how a cell manages to find a specific DNA sequence sufficiently fast to repair a broken chromosome through homologous recombination. I propose that the solution is based on a parallelized search implemented by freely diffusing molecules programmed with sequences corresponding to those flanking the break site.

Drf1-dependent Kinase Interacts with Claspin through a Conserved Protein Motif [PDF]
The Dbf4/Drf1-dependent kinase (DDK) is required for the initiation of DNA replication in eukaryotes. Another protein, Claspin, mediates the activation of a cellular checkpoint response to stalled replication forks and is also a regulator of replication.

Unleashing the Power of Multiomics: Unraveling the Molecular Landscape of Peripheral Neuropathy
ABSTRACT Peripheral neuropathies (PNs) affect over 20 million individuals in the United States, manifesting as a wide range of sensory, motor, and autonomic nerve symptoms. While various conditions such as diabetes, metabolic disorders, trauma, autoimmune disease, and chemotherapy‐induced neurotoxicity have been linked to PN, approximately one‐third of

Plasmid DNA-based Alphavirus Vaccines
Alphaviruses have been engineered as vectors for high-level transgene expression. Originally, alphavirus-based vectors were applied as recombinant replication-deficient particles, subjected to expression studies in mammalian and non-mammalian cell lines,

Expression of Sindbis virus structural proteins via recombinant vaccinia virus: synthesis, processing, and incorporation into mature Sindbis virions [PDF]
We have obtained a vaccinia virus recombinant which contains a complete cDNA copy of the 26S RNA of Sindbis virus within the thymidine kinase gene of the vaccinia virus genome.

Ataxia-telangiectasia Mutated (ATM)-dependent Activation of ATR Occurs through Phosphorylation of TopBP1 by ATM [PDF]
ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia mutated) is necessary for activation of Chk1 by ATR (ATM and Rad3-related) in response to double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs) but not to DNA replication stress. TopBP1 has been identified as a direct activator of ATR.

Epitope Mapping of Anti‐Neurofascin 155 Antibody in a Large Cohort of Autoimmune Nodopathy Patients
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune nodopathy (AN), a newly recognized disease entity, is an immune‐mediated polyneuropathy involving autoantibodies against cell adhesion molecules located in nodes of Ranvier and paranodal regions, such as neurofascin 186 (NF186) and neurofascin 155 (NF155). The present study aimed to identify the epitopes for autoantibodies
