Ribonucleoprotein complexes as autoantigens [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 1995 Many intracellular proteins and nucleic acids, that are involved in important biosynthetic pathways, are targeted by autoantibodies occurring spontaneously in the sera of patients with systemic autoimmune diseases. Frequently, the autoantigens are assembled into multicomponent complexes containing both nucleic acid(s) and proteins.

Crystal Structures of Influenza A Virus Matrix Protein M1: Variations on a Theme [PDF]
, 2014 Matrix protein 1 (M1) of the influenza A virus plays multiple roles in virion assembly and infection. Interest in the pH dependence of M1\u27s multiple functions led us to study the effect of subtle pH changes on M1 structure, resulting in the ...

Functional rescue of dystrophin deficiency in mice caused by frameshift mutations using Campylobacter jejuni Cas9 [PDF]
, 2018 Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal, X-linked muscle wasting disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene. In 51% of DMD cases, a reading frame is disrupted because of deletion of several exons.

Targeted mutagenesis using CRISPR-Cas9 in the chelicerate herbivore Tetranychus urticae [PDF]
, 2020 The use of CRISPR-Cas9 has revolutionized functional genetic work in many organisms, including more and more insect species. However, successful gene editing or genetic transformation has not yet been reported for chelicerates, the second largest group ...

Membrane permeabilizing amphiphilic peptide delivers recombinant transcription factor and CRISPR-Cas9/Cpf1 ribonucleoproteins in hard-to-modify cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Delivery of recombinant proteins to therapeutic cells is limited by a lack of efficient methods. This hinders the use of transcription factors or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) ribonucleoproteins to develop cell ...

Preparation of Cas9 Ribonucleoproteins for Genome Editing
Bio-Protocol, 2022 Genome editing by the delivery of pre-assembled Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (Cas9 RNP) is an increasingly popular approach for cell types that are difficult to manipulate genetically by the conventional plasmid and viral methods.

High-Resolution Analysis of the Efficiency, Heritability, and Editing Outcomes of CRISPR/Cas9-Induced Modifications of NCED4 in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa). [PDF]
, 2018 CRISPR/Cas9 is a transformative tool for making targeted genetic alterations. In plants, high mutation efficiencies have been reported in primary transformants. However, many of the mutations analyzed were somatic and therefore not heritable.
