MEMOFinder: combining _de_ _novo_ motif prediction methods with a database of known motifs [PDF]
*Background:* Methods for finding overrepresented sequence motifs are useful in several key areas of computational biology. They aim at detecting very weak signals responsible for biological processes requiring robust sequence identification like ...

To explore the impact of the overexpression of the multidrug‐transporter P‐glycoprotein (ABCB1) on membrane fluidity, we compared the transversal gradient of mobility and microviscosity in plasma membranes of drug‐sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cells (AuxB1) and their multidrug‐resistant derivatives (B30) using the fluorescent n‐(9‐anthroyloxy) fatty ...

Biology and taxonomy of crAss-like bacteriophages, the most abundant virus in the human gut
CrAssphage is yet to be cultured even though it represents the most abundant virus in the gut microbiota of humans. Recently, sequence based classification was performed on distantly related crAss-like phages from multiple environments, leading to the ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
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.

Summary: Cytidine deaminases as DNA mutators play important roles in immunity and genome stability. Here, we present a high-throughput protocol for deamination of long single-stranded (ss) DNA or oligo pools containing complex sequences.

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive

Evolutionary descent of prion genes from a ZIP metal ion transport ancestor [PDF]
In the more than 20 years since its discovery, both the phylogenetic origin and cellular function of the prion protein (PrP) have remained enigmatic.

High-throughput sequencing for the study of bacterial pathogen biology
A revolution in sequencing technologies in recent years has led to dramatically increased throughput and reduced cost of bacterial genome sequencing. An increasing number of applications of the new technologies are providing broad insights into bacterial evolution, epidemiology, and pathogenesis.
