Persistent Wnt/β-catenin signaling determines dorsalization of the postnatal subventricular zone and neural Stem cell specification into oligodendrocytes and glutamatergic neurons [PDF]
In the postnatal and adult central nervous system (CNS), the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the forebrain is the main source of neural stem cells (NSCs) that generate olfactory neurons and oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelinating cells of the CNS.

DNA Flap‐Mediated Control of Transcription for Programmable RNA Synthesis
Pyrimidine‐rich ssDNA flaps on the T7 promoter inhibit T7 RNA polymerase (T7RP) transcription. Leveraging this pyrimidine bias, we developed DNAzyme‐ and MNAzyme‐mediated flap promoter induced transcription control (D‐FIT and M‐FIT) systems. These platforms enable regulated transcription and sequence‐specific detection, highlighting the programmable ...

DNA detection using recombination proteins.
DNA amplification is essential to most nucleic acid testing strategies, but established techniques require sophisticated equipment or complex experimental procedures, and their uptake outside specialised laboratories has been limited. Our novel approach,

Digital Isothermal Quantification of Nucleic Acids via Simultaneous Chemical Initiation of Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Reactions on SlipChip [PDF]
In this paper, digital quantitative detection of nucleic acids was achieved at the single-molecule level by chemical initiation of over one thousand sequence-specific, nanoliter isothermal amplification reactions in parallel.

Chimeric piggyBac transposases for genomic targeting in human cells. [PDF]
Integrating vectors such as viruses and transposons insert transgenes semi-randomly and can potentially disrupt or deregulate genes. For these techniques to be of therapeutic value, a method for controlling the precise location of insertion is required ...

Microfluidic method for rapid turbidimetric detection of the DNA of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using loop-mediated isothermal amplification in capillary tubes [PDF]
We describe a microfluidic method for rapid isothermal turbidimetric detection of the DNA of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification is accomplished in capillary tubes for amplifying DNA in less than 15 min, and sensitivity and

Engineering Gram-Negative Microbial Cell Factories Using Transposon Vectors [PDF]
The construction of microbial cell factories à la carte largely depends on specialized molecular biology and synthetic biology tools needed to reprogram bacteria for modifying their existing functions or for bestowing them with new-to-Nature tasks.
