Dependence relationships between Gene Ontology terms based on TIGR gene product annotations [PDF]
The Gene Ontology is an important tool for the representation and processing of information about gene products and functions. It provides controlled vocabularies for the designations of cellular components, molecular functions, and biological processes ...

Functional characterization of an active Rag-like transposase [PDF]
The formation of diverse immunoglobulin genes results in part from Rag protein-mediated DNA double-strand breaks at the edges of immunoglobulin gene segments, followed by combinatorial reassembly of these segments. We report that a Transib transposase from the insect Helicoverpa zea is active in vitro and that its breakage and joining activities mimic ...

In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Divergent roles of CprK paralogues from Desulfitobacterium hafniense in activating gene expression [PDF]
Gene duplication and horizontal gene transfer play an important role in the evolution of prokaryotic genomes. We have investigated the role of three CprK paralogues from the cAMP receptor protein-fumarate and nitrate reduction regulator (CRP-FNR) family ...

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Partial Sequencing of IS1216V Transposase Gene of Staphylococcus Aureus Isolated from Food Samples
Background: Insertion sequence is a short DNA sequence encode for proteins implicated in the transposition activity. Transposase catalyzes the enzymatic reaction allowing the insertion sequence to +9*lo2 move. ;qqa;.

Restoring Iron Homeostasis via Smoothened Inhibition: A Novel Strategy Against Hearing Loss
. ABSTRACT Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) induced by noise or aminoglycoside antibiotics is a significant public health concern without any FDA‐approved pharmaceutical therapies. Dysregulation of iron homeostasis and its subsequently induced ferroptosis has increasingly been identified as a key mechanism underlying cochlear hair cell (HC) damage ...

Characterization of a functional insertion sequence ISSau2 from Staphylococcus aureus
Background ISSau2 has been suggested as a member of the IS150 f subgroup in the IS3 family. It encodes a fusion transposase OrfAB produced by programmed − 1 translational frameshifting with two overlapping reading frames orfA and orfB.

A Guide for Spatial Omics Technologies: Innovation, Evaluation, and Application
This review presents a strategy‐centric framework for spatial omics technologies, organizing methods by how spatial information is experimentally encoded. It compares key performance trade‐offs across sequencing‐ and imaging‐based approaches, examines computational and practical limitations, and highlights biomedical applications. The analysis provides

A bend, flip and trap mechanism for transposon integration
Cut-and-paste DNA transposons of the mariner/Tc1 family are useful tools for genome engineering and are inserted specifically at TA target sites. A crystal structure of the mariner transposase Mos1 (derived from Drosophila mauritiana), in complex with ...
