Genetic variation affecting exon skipping contributes to brain structural atrophy in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2018 Genetic variation in cis-regulatory elements related to splicing machinery and splicing regulatory elements (SREs) results in exon skipping and undesired protein products.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Optimizing a Human Papillomavirus Type 16 L1-Based Chimaeric Gene for Expression in Plants
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018 Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the causative agents of cervical cancer, the fourth most prevalent cancer in women worldwide. The major capsid protein L1 self-assembles into virus-like particles (VLPs), even in the absence of the minor L2 protein: such

Regulatory Takings and Judicial Supremacy [PDF]
, 2000 The thesis of this Article is that the Court of Federal Claims and the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit have become exposed to this classic critique of constitutional decision-making through the recent expansions of the regulatory takings ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Identification of functional cis-regulatory elements by sequential enrichment from a randomized synthetic DNA library [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: The identification of endogenous cis-regulatory DNA elements (CREs) responsive to endogenous and environmental cues is important for studying gene regulation and for biotechnological applications but is labor and time intensive. Alternatively,

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Structural heterogeneity and functional convergence of transposable elements
Frontiers in GeneticsAlmost half the mammalian genomes consist of transposable elements (TEs) and their derivatives. The distribution density of TEs can be associated with genomic regions of chromosomal rearrangements in different mammalian species and with the genomic ...

Accurate prediction of gene feedback circuit behavior from component properties
Molecular Systems Biology, 2007 A basic assumption underlying synthetic biology is that analysis of genetic circuit elements, such as regulatory proteins and promoters, can be used to understand and predict the behavior of circuits containing those elements. To test this assumption, we
