Flap endonuclease-1 (FEN-1), a structure specific nuclease, is an essential enzyme for eukaryotic DNA replication and repair. The crystal structure of FEN-1 from Methanococcus jannaschii ...
Guided by RNA, the Cas9 endonuclease breaks DNA at a target sequence. Imprecise repair of the double strand break can result in insertion or deletion mutations, while repair pathways can be ...
The Southern blot is the most common way to analyse restriction endonuclease-digested DNA to find specific sequences of interest. It uses the fact that denatured nucleic acids will bind to ...
tRNA splicing occurs in two stages: (i) intron excision and (ii) joining of the broken tRNA halves. A tRNA splicing endonuclease catalyzes dual incisions of the pre-tRNA at the exon-intron borders to ...
Tivoxavir was designed as a potential best-in-class inhibitor of the highly-conserved influenza protein, CAP-dependent endonuclease (CEN), intended for use across a broad range of flu viruses.
NeuroSense Therapeutics Ltd. (Nasdaq: NRSN) ("NeuroSense"), a late-clinical stage biotechnology company developing novel treatments for severe neurodegenerative diseases, today announced ...
This important study explores the interplay between gene dosage and gene mutations in the evolution of antibiotic resistance. The authors provide solid evidence to connect proteostasis with gene ...
This useful study examines the function of the rnc gene, which encodes the RNase III ribonuclease, as it relates to virulence of Salmonella Enteritidis. The authors demonstrate that the rnc gene is ...
