4′‐ThioRNA Substitution and Sense‐Strand Segmentation for the Design of Functional Fully Modified siRNAs Targeting SARS‐CoV‐2

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
4′‐ThioRNA was broadly tolerated across multiple positions in SARS‐CoV‐2‐targeting siRNAs, but full 4'‐thio modification of both strands caused a reduction in RNAi activity. Sense‐strand segmentation improved RNAi and antiviral activity, particularly when the nick was located at position 10 from the 5′‐end of the sense strand, thereby unlocking the ...

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Assembly and Maintenance of Myofibrils in the Heart

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The assembly of actin and myosin to the paracrystalline arrangement of myofibrils in striated muscle, that is, heart and skeletal, has puzzled many a cell biologist. Different models, based on cultured cardiomyocytes, were proposed for the last 30 years to explain the sequence of events.

The β integrin modulates serotonin sensitivity via NPxY motifs to regulate egg laying and mechanosensation behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare
