Engineering a minimal cloning vector from a pUC18 plasmid backbone with an extended multiple cloning site [PDF]
Minimal plasmids play an essential role in many intermediate steps in molecular biology. For example, they can be used to assemble building blocks in synthetic biology or be used as intermediate cloning plasmids that are ideal for PCR-based mutagenesis ...

Rapid single step subcloning procedure by combined action of type II and type IIs endonucleases with ligase [PDF]
Background The subcloning of a DNA fragment from an entry vector into a destination vector is a routinely performed task in molecular biology labs. Results We here present a novel benchtop procedure to achieve rapid recombination into any destination ...

In Vitro Assembly of Multiple DNA Fragments Using Successive Hybridization [PDF]
Construction of recombinant DNA from multiple fragments is widely required in molecular biology, especially for synthetic biology purposes. Here we describe a new method, successive hybridization assembling (SHA) which can rapidly do this in a single ...

Graph Representation Learning in Biomedicine [PDF]
Biomedical networks (or graphs) are universal descriptors for systems of interacting elements, from molecular interactions and disease co-morbidity to healthcare systems and scientific knowledge. Advances in artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning, have enabled us to model, analyze, and learn with such networked data. In this review, we put

Significance and transmission of maize streak virus disease in Africa and options for management: A review [PDF]
The distribution of leafhopper vector populations and the viral diseases they vector are inherently influenced by agro-ecological factors. This review discusses the distribution and classification of MSVstrains, their vectors and how agro-ecological ...

Reviewing molecular adaptations of Lyme borreliosis spirochetes in the context of reproductive fitness in natural transmission cycles [PDF]
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is caused by a group of pathogenic spirochetes – most often Borrelia burgdorferi, B. afzelii, and B. garinii – that are vectored by hard ticks in the Ixodes ricinus-persulcatus complex, which feed on a variety of mammals, birds, and
