Amplification of Filia, a Bovine GC Rich Gene, by Optimization of Primer Design [PDF]

open access: yesمجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2015
Filia is a maternal effect gene, disorder in which causes decreased fertility in mouse and abortion in human. Bovine Filia transcript is predicted in NCBI database. Nucleotide analysis shows that it has a higher GC content in comparison with its mouse or

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Assessing secondary structure assignment of protein structures by using pairwise sequence-alignment benchmarks

open access: yes, 2008
How to make an objective assignment of secondary structures based on a protein structure is an unsolved problem. Defining the boundaries between helix, sheet, and coil structures is arbitrary, and commonly accepted standard assignments do not exist. Here,

A Simple Comparison between Specific Protein Secondary Structure Prediction Tools

open access: yesTropical Agricultural Research, 2012
A comparative evaluation of five widely used protein secondary structure prediction programs available in World Wide Web was carried out. Secondary structure data of ten proteins containing 190 secondary structure motifs were collected from Protein Data ...

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Accurate and Automated Classification of

open access: yes, 2003
PsiCSI is a highly accurate and automated method of assigning secondary structure from NMR data, which is a useful intermediate step in the determination of tertiary structures.

The influence of viral RNA secondary structure on interactions with innate host cell defences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
RNA viruses infecting vertebrates differ fundamentally in their ability to establish persistent infections with markedly different patterns of transmission, disease mechanisms and evolutionary relationships with their hosts.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Structure and biosynthesis of fungal secondary metabolites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The root rot pathogen Heterobasidion annosum s.l., i.e. H. abietinum, H. parviporum, H. annosum s.s., H. irregulare and H. occidentale, and the biocontrol fungus Phlebiopsis gigantea were investigated regarding their secondary metabolites.
