The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

The unsung hero of science: Barbara McClintock, who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1983 for her discovery of mobile genetic elements [PDF]

The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal
In 1983, American plant biologist and cytogeneticist McClintock, one of the great loners of modern­ scien­ce, received the first woman scientist’s unshared Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Barbara McClintock’s research, conducted in the 1930s, long

Sequential, chromosome‐specific glutamine synthetase double knockout with Cas‐CLOVER establishes enhanced CHO platforms for cell line development

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
This study established the first creation of a commercially available double GS knockout (DKO) from a single KO in CHO‐K1 cells, called CleanCut GS CHO using Cas‐CLOVER. When combined with the Harbor‐IN transposase system, CleanCut GS CHO cells demonstrated a highly antibody productivity.

Transposable Elements, Inflammation, and Neurological Disease. [PDF]

, 2019
Transposable Elements (TE) are mobile DNA elements that can replicate and insert themselves into different locations within the host genome. Their propensity to self-propagate has a myriad of consequences and yet their biological significance is not well-

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Toluene transposons Tn4651 and Tn4653 are class II transposons

Journal of Bacteriology, 1989
The toluene degradative transposon Tn4651 is included within another transposon, Tn4653, and both of these elements are members of the Tn3 family. The tnpA gene product of each element mediates formation of cointegrates as intermediate products of transposition, and the tnpS and tnpT gene products encoded by Tn4651 take part in resolution of both ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

piggyBacTransposon

Microbiology Spectrum, 2015
ABSTRACTThepiggyBactransposon was originally isolated from the cabbage looper moth,Trichoplusia ni, in the 1980s. Despite its early discovery and dissimilarity to the other DNA transposon families, thepiggyBactransposon was not recognized as a member of a large transposon superfamily for a long time. Initially, thepiggyBactransposon was thought to be a

Degradable Nanocarriers Capable of Gene Delivery Derived from pH‐Responsive Polyester: RROP Copolymerization Between Cyclic Ketene Acetals

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Polyesters with inherent pH‐sensitivity are prepared through radical ring‐opening polymerization between cyclic ketene acetals. These polyesters demonstrate great potential as alternatives to conventional polycations for fabricating hybrid nanoparticles.

An Open‐Label Phase 1b Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Clinical Activity of ANX005 in Patients with Huntington's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Complement activation is implicated in Huntington's disease; ANX005 is a potent inhibitor of component C1q. ANX005 exhibited a generally manageable safety profile with rapid reduction in C1q in the cerebrospinal fluid. Functional ability on composite Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale and total functional capacity was maintained, with potential ...
