One-carbon metabolism in cancer [PDF]
, 2017 Cells require one-carbon units for nucleotide synthesis, methylation and reductive metabolism, and these pathways support the high proliferative rate of cancer cells.

Rewriting Human History and Empowering Indigenous Communities with Genome Editing Tools. [PDF]
, 2020 Appropriate empirical-based evidence and detailed theoretical considerations should be used for evolutionary explanations of phenotypic variation observed in the field of human population genetics (especially Indigenous populations). Investigators within

The recently identified P2Y-like receptor GPR17 is a sensor of brain damage and a new target for brain repair. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Deciphering the mechanisms regulating the generation of new neurons and new oligodendrocytes, the myelinating cells of the central nervous system, is of paramount importance to address new strategies to replace endogenous damaged cells in the adult brain

Molecular details of quinolone–DNA interactions: solution structure of an unusually stable DNA duplex with covalently linked nalidixic acid residues and non-covalent complexes derived from it [PDF]
, 2005 Quinolones are antibacterial drugs that are thought to bind preferentially to disturbed regions of DNA. They do not fall into the classical categories of intercalators, groove binders or electrostatic binders to the backbone.

The Mechanism of Dna Repair by Uracil-Dna Glycosylase: Studies Using Nucleotide Analogues [PDF]
Nucleosides, Nucleotides and Nucleic Acids, 2000 2',4'-Dideoxy-4'-methyleneuridine incorporated into oligodeoxynucleotides forms regular B-DNA duplexes as shown by Tm and CD measurements. Such oligomers are not cleaved by the DNA repair enzyme, UDG, which cleaves the glycosylic bond in dU but not in dT nor in dC nucleosides in single stranded and double stranded DNA. Differential binding of oligomers

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.UDP‐glucuronic acid 4‐epimerase (UGAepi) catalyzes NAD+‐dependent interconversion of UDP‐glucuronic acid (UDP‐GlcA) and UDP‐galacturonic acid (UDP‐GalA) via C4‐oxidation, 4‐keto‐intermediate rotation, and C4‐reduction. Here, Borg et al. examined the role of the substrate's carboxylate group in the enzymic mechanism by analyzing NADH‐dependent reduction

Enzyme kinetics of dUTPase from the planarian Dugesia ryukyuensis
BMC Research Notes, 2019 Objective Planarians including Dugesia ryukyuensis (Dr) have strong regenerative abilities that require enhanced DNA replication. Knockdown of the DUT gene in Dr, which encodes deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate pyrophosphatase (dUTPase), promotes DNA ...

Architecturally diverse proteins converge on an analogous mechanism to inactivate Uracil-DNA glycosylase [PDF]
, 2013 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.
