Peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates exhibiting pyrimidine-X cleavage specificity efficiently silence miRNA target acting synergistically with RNase H

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Taking into account the important role of miRNA in carcinogenesis, oncogenic miRNAs are attractive molecules for gene-targeted therapy. Here, we developed a novel series of peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates exhibiting ribonuclease activity targeted to ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.

The solution structure of the prototype foamy virus RNase H domain indicates an important role of the basic loop in substrate binding

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2012
Background The ribonuclease H (RNase H) domains of retroviral reverse transcriptases play an essential role in the replication cycle of retroviruses. During reverse transcription of the viral genomic RNA, an RNA/DNA hybrid is created whose RNA strand ...

Differential roles of the RNases H in preventing chromosome instability [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016
Significance DNA damage can lead to chromosome instability and loss of genetic information, resulting in cell death or diseases such as cancer. One source of damage is DNA:RNA hybrids that form when RNA transcripts hybridize to homologous sequences in the genome.

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Transcriptome‐wide analysis of circRNA and RBP profiles and their molecular relevance for GBM

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
CircRNAs are differentially expressed in glioblastoma primary tumors and might serve as therapeutic targets and diagnostic markers. The investigation of circRNA and RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) interactions shows that distinct RBPs play a role in circRNA biogenesis and function.

Rational engineering of DNA-nanoparticle motor with high speed and processivity comparable to motor proteins

open access: yesNature Communications
DNA-nanoparticle motor is a burnt-bridge Brownian ratchet moving on RNA-modified surface driven by Ribonuclease H (RNase H), and one of the fastest nanoscale artificial motors. However, its speed is still much lower than those of motor proteins.
