Negative supercoiling creates single-stranded patches of DNA that are substrates for AID-mediated mutagenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Antibody diversification necessitates targeted mutation of regions within the immunoglobulin locus by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). While AID is known to act on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), the source, structure, and distribution of these ...

Exonuclease III Can Efficiently Cleave Linear Single-Stranded DNA: Reshaping Its Experimental Applications in Biosensors

open access: yesBiosensors, 2023
Exonuclease III (Exo III) has been generally used as a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA)-specific exonuclease that does not degrade single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Here, we demonstrate that Exo III at concentrations above 0.1 unit/μL can efficiently digest linear

Programmable Functional Silicification of DNA Origami Nanostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces additional functionality into silica‐coated DNA origami nanostructures using non‐standard silica precursors. A fluorescent precursor enables enhanced intracellular tracking, while a disulfide‐containing reagent yields redox‐responsive, degradable silica coatings.

APE1 recruits ATRIP to ssDNA in an RPA-dependent and -independent manner to promote the ATR DNA damage response

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Cells have evolved the DNA damage response (DDR) pathways in response to DNA replication stress or DNA damage. In the ATR-Chk1 DDR pathway, it has been proposed that ATR is recruited to RPA-coated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) by direct ATRIP-RPA ...

Dual Role of Tamoxifen in Enhancing STING and CEACAM1 Expression to Prime a Favorable Tumor Microenvironment for Anti‐TIM3 Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade has revolutionized cancer immunotherapy, but is ineffective against endocrine‐treated (i.e., Tamoxifen), relapsed ER+ breast cancer (BC) patients. This study provides insight into the sub‐optimal response of ER+BCs to anti‐PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade – highlighting the induction of STING and the CEACAM1/TIM3 axis after chronic ...

Managing Single-Stranded DNA during Replication Stress in Fission Yeast

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
Replication fork stalling generates a variety of responses, most of which cause an increase in single-stranded DNA. ssDNA is a primary signal of replication distress that activates cellular checkpoints. It is also a potential source of genome instability

Archaeal Orc1 protein interacts with T-rich single-stranded DNA

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective The ability to form nucleoprotein complexes is a fundamental activity of DNA replication initiation proteins. They bind within or nearby the region of replication origin what results in melting of a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and formation of ...

Amyloid-like Hfq interaction with single-stranded DNA: involvement in recombination and replication in Escherichia coli

open access: yesQRB Discovery, 2022
Interactions between proteins and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) are crucial for many fundamental biological processes, including DNA replication and genetic recombination.

ssDNA Extraktion v1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ssDNA Extraction Protocol This protocol is based on the Oligonucleotide extraction protocol of the NEB PCR & Clean-up Kit and the Qiagen DNeasy Protocol with a few modifications to maximize DNA output. First results of this protocol will be published soon, including first sequencing results of the so extracted DNA.

Probing the mechanism of recognition of ssDNA by the Cdc13-DBD [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2008
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein Cdc13 tightly and specifically binds the conserved G-rich single-stranded overhang at telomeres and plays an essential role in telomere end-protection and length regulation. The 200 residue DNA-binding domain of Cdc13 (Cdc13-DBD) binds an 11mer single-stranded representative of the yeast telomeric sequence [Tel11, d(
