The Origin and Evolution of Ribonucleotide Reduction [PDF]
Ribonucleotide reduction is the only pathway for de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides in extant organisms. This chemically demanding reaction, which proceeds via a carbon-centered free radical, is catalyzed by ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). The mechanism has been deemed unlikely to be catalyzed by a ribozyme, creating an enigma regarding how the ...

Initial B Cell Activation Induces Metabolic Reprogramming and Mitochondrial Remodeling. [PDF]
B lymphocytes provide adaptive immunity by generating antigen-specific antibodies and supporting the activation of T cells. Little is known about how global metabolism supports naive B cell activation to enable an effective immune response.

Ribonucleotide and R-Loop Damage in Plastid DNA and Mitochondrial DNA during Maize Development
Although the temporary presence of ribonucleotides in DNA is normal, their persistence represents a form of DNA damage. Here, we assess such damage and damage defense to DNA in plastids and mitochondria of maize.

Raman depolarization ratios in RNA and DNA are sensitive for sugar-base coupling [PDF]
Polarized and depolarized Raman spectra are obtained for a number of synthetic polynucleotides containing adenine, uracil, and thymine bases. The depolarization ratios are determined by two methods: (1) by dividing the -spectrum by the -spectrum and (2 ...

Molecular basis for processing of topoisomerase 1-triggered DNA damage by Apn2/APE2
Summary: Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) incises DNA containing ribonucleotides to generate complex DNA lesions that are resolved by APE2 (Apn2 in yeast). How Apn2 engages and processes this DNA damage is unclear.
