Rapid metabolic pathway assembly and modification using serine integrase site-specific recombination. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res, 2014
Abstract Synthetic biology requires effective methods to assemble DNA parts into devices and to modify these devices once made. Here we demonstrate a convenient rapid procedure for DNA fragment assembly using site-specific recombination by ϕC31 integrase.

The evolving role of structural biology in pharma: integration of X‐ray crystallography, cryo‐electron microscopy and beyond

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 587-602, June 2026.
This review describes how an integrated structural biology platform at Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, Rahway, New Jersey, USA, combining X‐ray crystallography, cryo‐EM, MicroED and cryo‐ET, enables seamless three‐dimensional insights from molecular to cellular length scales.

Alternating High‐Fat and Polysaccharide Diets Modulates Gut Phage‐Bacterial Interplay

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.
This study reveals how alternating high‐fat and polysaccharide diets reshape the human gut virome and enhance phage‐bacteria interactions. Using large‐scale metagenomic meta‐analysis and a time‐resolved mouse model, the authors show that diets strongly modulate phage abundance, lifestyle, and gene exchange, offering new insights into nutrition‐guided ...

Sequencing and analysis of the DNA genome of the temperate bacteriophage Aa[Phi]23 of "Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The entire genomic sequence of the AaΦ23 bacteriophage is presented. Its size is 43,033 bp and it has an overall molar G+C content of 41mol%. 57 potential open reading frames (ORFs) were identified.

Intracellular Aβ42 Sequestration by a Serine Protease Mitigates Neurotoxicity in a Drosophila Alzheimer's Disease Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
Emerging evidence suggests that intraneuronal Aβ accumulation represents an early pathogenic event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Using Drosophila AD model, this study shows that a nonsecreted serine protease Yip7 physically interacts with Aβ. This causes intraneuronal Aβ accumulation but surprisingly reduces the associated neurotoxicity, arguing that ...

Control of ϕC31 integrase-mediated site-specific recombination by protein trans-splicing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Serine integrases are emerging as core tools in synthetic biology and have applications in biotechnology and genome engineering. We have designed a split-intein serine integrase-based system with potential for regulation of site-specific recombination ...

Protein-Mediated and RNA-Based Origins of Replication of Extrachromosomal Mycobacterial Prophages

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Temperate bacteriophages are common and establish lysogens of their bacterial hosts in which the prophage is stably inherited. It is typical for such prophages to be integrated into the bacterial chromosome, but extrachromosomally replicating prophages ...

Multi‐Targeting Non‐Specific Genome Engineering in Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
In this study, we provide the first case to use the multi‐targeting integrase (MTI) systems in bacteria and develop a host‐independent generalizable approach, MNGE (Multi‐targeting Non‐specific Genome Engineering), for multi‐copy and random integration of metabolic genes or pathways in both Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria, which will ...

The mutation of Transportin 3 gene that causes limb girdle muscular dystrophy 1F induces protection against HIV-1 infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
The causative mutation responsible for limb girdle muscular dystrophy 1F (LGMD1F) is one heterozygous single nucleotide deletion in the stop codon of the nuclear import factor Transportin 3 gene (TNPO3).

Requirement for a conserved serine in both processing and joining activities of retroviral integrase. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1992
Retroviruses encode a protein, the integrase (IN), that is required for insertion of the viral DNA into the host cell chromosome. IN alone can carry out the integration reaction in vitro. The reaction involves endonucleolytic cleavage near the 3' ends of both viral DNA strands (the processing step), followed by joining of these new viral DNA ends to ...
