Quantum mechanical static dipole polarizabilities in the QM7b and AlphaML showcase databases

Michele Ceriotti, David Mark Wilkins, Andrea Grisafi

While density functional theory (DFT) is often an accurate and efficient methodology for evaluating molecular properties such as energies and multipole moments, this approach often yields larger errors for response properties such as the dipole polarizabil ...

Trypanosoma brucei UMSBP2 is a single-stranded telomeric DNA binding protein essential for chromosome end protection

Galina Glousker

Universal minicircle sequence binding proteins (UMSBPs) are CCHC-type zinc-finger proteins that bind a single-stranded G-rich sequence, UMS, conserved at the replication origins of the mitochondrial (kinetoplast) DNA of trypanosomatids. Here, we report tha ...

A practical qPCR approach to detect TERRA, the elusive telomeric repeat-containing RNA

Joachim Lingner, Marianna Feretzaki

Telomeres, the heterochromatic structures that protect the ends of the chromosomes, are transcribed into a class of long non-coding RNAs, telomeric repeat-containing RNAs (TERRA), whose transcriptional regulation and functions are not well understood. The ...

The Demographic and Adaptive History of the African Green Monkey

Susanne Petra Pfeifer

Relatively little is known about the evolutionary history of the African green monkey (genus Chlorocebus) due to the lack of sampled polymorphism data fromwild populations. Yet, this characterization of genetic diversity is not only critical for a better u ...

On the statistical physics of chains and rods, with application to multi-scale sequence-dependent DNA modelling

Alexandre Emmanuel Grandchamp

The complex mechanisms involved in cellular processes have been increasingly understood this past century and the central role of the DNA molecule has been recognized. The base pair sequence along a DNA fragment is observed not only to encode the genomic i ...

Computation and Visualization in Multiscale Modelling of DNA Mechanics

Jaroslaw Glowacki

Amongst the substances found in any living organism one of the most central in the workings of each living cell is deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). For that reason it has been the subject of research in many of its aspects. These range from DNA sequencing to a ...

Genomic and transcriptomic analysis of the streptomycin-dependent Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain 18b

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Andrej Benjak, Ming Zhang, Jérémie Piton, Swapna Uplekar

Background: The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to establish a latent infection (LTBI) in humans confounds the treatment of tuberculosis. Consequently, there is a need to discover new therapeutic agents that can kill M. tuberculosis both during activ ...

The number of double-normals in space

Andrei Kupavskii

Given a set V of points in , two points p, q from V form a double-normal pair, if the set V lies between two parallel hyperplanes that pass through p and q, respectively, and that are orthogonal to the segment pq. In this paper we study the maximum number ...

Role of APOBEC3F Gene Variation in HIV-1 Disease Progression and Pneumocystis Pneumonia

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Istvan Bartha

Human APOBEC3 cytidine deaminases are intrinsic resistance factors to HIV-1. However, HIV-1 encodes a viral infectivity factor (Vif) that degrades APOBEC3 proteins. In vitro APO-BEC3F (A3F) anti-HIV-1 activity is weaker than A3G but is partially resistant ...

An Organometallic Compound which Exhibits a DNA Topology-Dependent One-Stranded Intercalation Mode

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ursula Röthlisberger, Giulia Palermo, Benjamin Samuel Murray, Thibaud Edouard Alistair von Erlach

Understanding how small molecules interact with DNA is essential since it underlies a multitude of pathological conditions and therapeutic interventions. Many different intercalator compounds have been studied because of their activity as mutagens or drugs ...
