Development of multiplexed single-molecule imaging techniques to study chromatin invasion dynamics of chromatin effector proteins

Kristina Makasheva

DNA-binding proteins physically interact with the DNA and directly affect genomic functions. The eukaryotic genome is compacted into chromatin, limiting the DNA access to nuclear factors. In this Ph.D. thesis, I explored the dynamic mechanisms, that allow ...

TFIIH moonlighting at telomeres

Joachim Lingner, Galina Glousker

Although telomeres are essential for chromosome stability, they represent fragile structures in our genome. Telomere shortening occurs during aging in cells lacking telomerase due to the end replication problem. In addition, recent work uncovered that the ...

Requirements for DNA bubble structure for efficient cleavage by helix-two-turn-helix DNA glycosylases

Kristina Makasheva

Oxidative DNA lesions, constantly generated by both endogenous and environmentally induced reactive oxygen species, are removed via the base excision repair pathway. In bacteria, Fpg and Nei DNA glycosylases, belonging to the helix-two-turn-helix (H2TH) st ...

Establishing a Ternary System for Optical Monitoring of DNA-Protein Interactions with Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Shang-Jung Wu

DNA-protein interactions lie at the crux of life's essential processes. As such, various technologies have been developed to characterize these interactions. The distinct advantages of these technologies can be leveraged to study different facets of these ...

Restriction endonuclease AgeI is a monomer which dimerizes to cleave DNA

Virginija Jovaisaite

Although all Type II restriction endonucleases catalyze phosphodiester bond hydrolysis within or close to their DNA target sites, they form different oligomeric assemblies ranging from monomers, dimers, tetramers to higher order oligomers to generate a dou ...

Toward an Effective Control of DNA's Submolecular Conformation on a Surface

Giovanni Dietler, Aleksandre Japaridze, Dusan Vobornik, Andrea Cerreta, Ewelina Wioletta Lipiec

DNA adopts different conformations based on its environment. We reveal conditions that either preserve the DNA's physiological B-conformation, even upon its placement in UHV, or lead to a partial B-form to A-form reorganization upon DNA's deposition on a s ...

mu ABC: a systematic microsecond molecular dynamics study of tetranucleotide sequence effects in B-DNA

John Maddocks, Daiva Petkeviciute, Marco Pasi, Jonathan Mitchell

We present the results of microsecond molecular dynamics simulations carried out by the ABC group of laboratories on a set of B-DNA oligomers containing the 136 distinct tetranucleotide base sequences. We demonstrate that the resulting trajectories have ex ...
