Analysis of synonymous mutations established that although the primary amino acid sequence remains unchanged, alterations in transcription and translation can result in significant phenotypic consequences. We report the novel observation that a series of

Expression of microRNAs in Horse Plasma and Their Characteristic Nucleotide Composition. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in blood plasma are stable under high levels of ribonuclease activity and could function in tissue-to-tissue communication, suggesting that they may have distinctive structural characteristics compared with non-circulating miRNAs.

Interaction of low-energy electrons with the purine bases, nucleosides, and nucleotides of DNA [PDF]
The authors report results from computational studies of the interaction of low-energy electrons with the purine bases of DNA, adenine and guanine, as well as with the associated nucleosides, deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine, and the nucleotide ...

Tools and drugs for uracil nucleotide-activated P2Y receptors
P2Y receptors (P2YRs) are a family of G protein-coupled receptors activated by extracellular nucleotides. Physiological P2YR agonists include purine and pyrimidine nucleoside di- and triphosphates, such as ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP, nucleotide sugars, and dinucleotides.

Involvement of uracil nucleotides in protection of cardiomyocytes from hypoxic stress [PDF]
Cardiomyocytes express one or more subtypes of P2 receptors for extracellular nucleotides. P2 purinoceptors, which are activated by nucleotides, are classified as P2X or P2Y: P2X receptors are ligand-gated intrinsic ion channels, and P2Y receptors are G protein-coupled receptors.

The Importance of the Fifth Nucleotide in DNA: Uracil
Uracil is a ribonucleotide found in both DNA and RNA, with the main difference between the two being the presence of thymine in DNA and uracil in RNA. Although thymine and uracil are similar in function and can form the same base pairs with adenine, the presence of uracil in DNA can affect DNA stability and modulate cell-specific functions.

Northern Blot of tRNA in Yeast
tRNAs are small RNAs around 70-90 nt. tRNAs are different from many other small RNAs in that they are very abundant, which makes it difficult to study their transcriptional regulation by traditional northern blot.

Architecturally diverse proteins converge on an analogous mechanism to inactivate Uracil-DNA glycosylase [PDF]
Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) compromises the replication strategies of diverse viruses from unrelated lineages. Virally encoded proteins therefore exist to limit, inhibit or target UDG activity for proteolysis.
