Electronic Relaxation Dynamics of UV-Photoexcited 2-Aminopurine-Thymine Base Pairs in Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen Conformations

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The fluorescent analogue 2-aminopurine (2AP) of the canonical nucleobase adenine (6-aminopurine) base-pairs with thymine (T) without disrupting the helical structure of DNA. It therefore finds frequent use in molecular biology for probing DNA and RNA struc ...

Analysis of the dynamics and competition for resources in the system of protein translation using stochastic simulations

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Julien Racle, Joana Raquel Pinto Vieira

Protein synthesis plays an important role in biological systems since its products, proteins and enzymes, constitute most of the molecular machinery required for cell regulation, growth and function in the tissue. Understanding the mechanisms of decoding a ...

Computational analysis of the interplay between tRNA competitive behavior and decoding type on the modulation of translation elongation rate

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Julien Racle, Joana Raquel Pinto Vieira

There has been much discussion in the literature regarding the determinants of ribosomal decoding speed during the mRNA translation process. Computational results based on mechanistic models for ribosomal kinetics have predicted a major role for near-cogna ...

Telomeric Repeat Containing RNAs and the Response to Telomere Deprotection in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae

Andrea Bernardo Panza

Telomeres are the DNA/RNA/protein structures at the end of linear eukaryotic chromosomes, which protect them against the DNA damage repair machinery, preventing chromosome end-to-end fusions and aberrant recombination. Moreover, telomeres compensate for th ...

A cSNP map and database for human chromosome 21

Philipp Bucher

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are likely to contribute to the study of complex genetic diseases. The genomic sequence of human chromosome 21q was recently completed with 225 annotated genes, thus permitting efficient identification and precise map ...

A novel interferon-gamma regulated human melanoma-associated antigen, gp33-38, defined by monoclonal antibody Me14-D12. II. Molecular cloning of a genomic probe

Lukas Kühn

The human Me14-D12 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein regulated by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) on tumor cell lines of neuroectodermal origin. It consists of two non-convalently linked subunits with apparent mol. wt sizes of 33,000 and 38,000. Here we ...
