Decoding the Structural Dynamics and Conformational Alternations of DNA Secondary Structures by Single-Molecule FRET Microspectroscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
In addition to the canonical double helix form, DNA is known to be extrapolated into several other secondary structural patterns involving themselves in inter- and intramolecular type hydrogen bonding. The secondary structures of nucleic acids go through

A DNA packaging motor inchworms along one strand allowing it to adapt to alternative double-helical structures

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Ring ATPase translocases that operate on disordered substrates adopt lockwasher architectures and use a hand-over-hand mechanism. By challenging the dsDNA packaging motor of bacteriophage ϕ29 with hybrid and dsRNA, the authors propose that the motor ...

Confined environment facilitates stacked conformations in Holliday Junction

open access: yesChemical Physics Impact, 2023
Holliday Junction (HJ) is an important intermediate in homologous recombination and is involved in DNA break repair. It is a highly dynamic structure and transitions between two stacked isomers through an intermediate open conformer. However, the insight

Topoisomerase VI is a chirally-selective, preferential DNA decatenase

open access: yeseLife, 2022
DNA topoisomerase VI (topo VI) is a type IIB DNA topoisomerase found predominantly in archaea and some bacteria, but also in plants and algae. Since its discovery, topo VI has been proposed to be a DNA decatenase; however, robust evidence and a mechanism

Biophysical nanotools for single-molecule dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Reviews, 2018
The focus of the cell biology field is now shifting from characterizing cellular activities to organelle and molecular behaviors. This process accompanies the development of new biophysical visualization techniques that offer high spatial and temporal resolutions with ultra-sensitivity and low cell toxicity. They allow the biology research community to
