A Field‐Deployable RotEx‐LAMP‐LFA Platform for Molecular Triage of HPV‐Driven Oncogenesis
This study presents RotEx‐LAMP‐LFA, a fully integrated, battery‐powered, low‐cost point‐of‐care device for rapid cervical cancer risk detection based on HPV16/18 E6/E7 mRNA. Clinically validated, the system demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity, and showed full concordance between self‐collected and clinician‐collected samples, offering a ...

Distinct Phage‐Encoded Enzymes for Substitution of Deoxythymidine by Deoxyuridine in Phage Genomes
Distinct enzymes including dCTP deaminases (Dcds), dTMP phosphatases (Dtms), and dTTP pyrophosphatases (Dtt) are found to be responsible for dU‐DNA biosynthesis in the phages PBS1, DSS3_VP1, and PhiR1‐37. Both PhiR1‐37‐derived and synthetic dU‐DNA are resistant to cleavage by restriction enzymes and Cas12a nuclease targeting dT‐containing sites.

Susceptibility to the health effects of DNA damage depends on a person's ability to repair DNA damage, but DNA repair has been difficult to measure in populations. A functional assay called FM‐HCR is used to measure DNA repair in 6 major pathways across 56 individuals.

Loss of Uracil DNA Glycosylase Selectively Resensitizes p53-Mutant and -Deficient Cells to 5-FdU
Thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitors including fluoropyrimidines [e.g., 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and 5-Fluorodeoxyuridine (5-FdU, floxuridine)] and antifolates (e.g., pemetrexed) are widely used against solid tumors.

Base excision by thymine DNA glycosylase mediates DNA-directed cytotoxicity of 5-fluorouracil.
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), a chemotherapeutic drug commonly used in cancer treatment, imbalances nucleotide pools, thereby favoring misincorporation of uracil and 5-FU into genomic DNA.

UGI relocation inside Cas9 reduces Cas9 dependent off target effects in cytosine base editors
Cytosine base editors (CBEs) achieve precise C-to-T conversions by addition of uracil DNA glycosylase inhibitor (UGI) with Cas9 nickase (nCas9) and cytidine deaminase, and the conventional fusion at the nCas9 carboxyl terminus effectively inhibits uracil
