Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Transforming opacity verification to nonblocking verification in modular systems

, 2019
We consider the verification of current-state and K-step opacity for systems modeled as interacting non-deterministic finite-state automata. We describe a new methodology for compositional opacity verification that employs abstraction, in the form of a ...

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive

Retrospective analysis of secondary enucleation for uveal melanoma after plaque radiotherapy

BMC Ophthalmology, 2022
Background Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Plaque brachytherapy (PRT) is widely accepted as an effective globe-conserving treatment modality for UM.

Purification tags markedly affect self‐aggregation of CPEB3

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Although recombinant proteins are used to study protein aggregation in vitro, uncleaved tags can interfere with accurate interpretation. Our findings demonstrate that His₆‐GFP and His₁₂ tags significantly affect liquid droplet and amyloid fibril formation in the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of mouse cytoplasmic polyadenylation element‐binding ...

The African Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone Treaty: A Reflection on the Role of Activism

The Thinker
It took 45 years between when the First Ordinary Session of the then Organisation of African Unity (OAU) [now the African Union] declared Africa a denuclearized zone in July 1964 and when the African Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone Treaty (Treaty of Pelindaba)
