Transposase-mediated gene modulation in the placenta [PDF]

open access: yesPlacenta, 2017
The placenta is an organ vital to fetal development as well as the maintenance of a healthy pregnancy and plays a crucial role in developmental programming of the fetus. The mechanisms that link intrauterine milieu, fetal health and disease development later in life are poorly understood. Placenta-specific gene modulation, both by generating transgenic

Sleeping Beauty transposase structure allows rational design of hyperactive variants for genetic engineering

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Sleeping Beauty is used as a genome engineering tool in a range of organisms. Here, the authors solve an atomic structure of Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposase and model the target DNA into the active site, elucidating details that may enable the rational ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Insertion sequence content reflects genome plasticity in strains of the root nodule actinobacterium Frankia

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background Genome analysis of three Frankia sp. strains has revealed a high number of transposable elements in two of the strains. Twelve out of the 20 major families of bacterial Insertion Sequence (IS) elements are represented in the 148 annotated ...

Epigenetic heterogeneity and plasticity in therapy‐induced tumor states through single‐cell multi‐omics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell multi‐omics reveals epigenetic heterogeneity across therapy‐adaptive tumor states, including quiescent/dormant, drug‐tolerant persister, and EMT‐like phenotypes. By linking regulatory features with state‐associated biomarkers, these approaches inform biomarker‐guided therapeutic strategies for evolving tumors.

In vivo mutagenesis of bacteriophage Mu transposase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1987
We devised a method for isolating mutations in the bacteriophage Mu A gene which encodes the phage transposase. Nine new conditional defective A mutations were isolated. These, as well as eight previously isolated mutations, were mapped with a set of defined deletions which divided the gene into 13 100- to 200-base-pair segments.

Single‐cell DNA methylation profiling: Technologies, computation, and applications in precision oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell DNA methylation (scDNAme) profiling maps epimutational clonal evolution, revealing mechanisms of malignancy and therapeutic resistance across diverse cancer types. By providing a high‐resolution landscape of intratumoral heterogeneity, these technologies empower precise patient stratification, guide the development of enhanced ...

CRISPR RNA-Guided Transposases Facilitate Dispensable Gene Study in Phage

open access: yesViruses
Phages provide a potential therapy for multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. However, a significant portion of viral genes often remains unknown, posing potential dangers. The identification of non-essential genes helps dissect and simplify phage genomes,

Sequence diversity and copy number variation of Mutator-like transposases in wheat

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2008
Partial transposase-coding sequences of Mutator-like elements (MULEs) were isolated from a wild einkorn wheat, Triticum urartu, by degenerate PCR.
