Synthetic lethality exploits the genetic vulnerabilities of cancer cells to enable a targeted, precision approach to treat cancer1. Over the past 15 years, synthetic lethal cancer target discovery approaches have led to clinical successes of PARP inhibit
Oocyte maturation defect (OMD) and early embryonic arrest result in female infertility. Previous studies have linked biallelic mutations in the PATL2 gene to OMD, yet the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. This study uncovers three novel mutat

Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathways orchestrate responses to oxygen and nutrient availability. These pathways are frequently dysregulated in cancer, but their interplay is poorly understood, in part because of
What is the term for a group of three nucleotide bases in mRNA that specify a particular amino acid to be incorporated into a protein? In retroviruses, DNA is synthesized from an RNA template using which enzyme? Use the amino acid chart to answer ...
Study the mRNA segment given above which is complete to be translated into a polypeptide chain. (i) Write the codons'a' and 'b' (ii) What so they code for ? (iii) How is peptide bond formed between two amino acids in the ribosome ?
After the in vivo experimental to examine VIRMA-regulated m6A modification, we proceeded to study the VIRMA protein. Human VIRMA has a full length of 1812 amino acids (aa) with two isoforms. The isoform 2 has a length of 1147 aa and possesses the same N-terminal 1130 aa as the full-len...
Similarly, we also expressed, purified and included in these experiments recombinant Tip110 mutant ΔNLS containing no NLS and a naturally occurring small splicing variant that only encodes the N-terminal 365 amino acids of Tip110 (Tip110s) [20]. Compared to Tip110, both ΔRRM and Tip110s ...
This included either the 21 amino acid K-Ras tail containing a farnesylation site added to the C-terminus (RAS.IDO) or the 14 amino acids of SRC containing a myristoylation site added to the N-terminus (SRC.IDO) of human IDO1. A catalytically inactive IDO1 (Dead IDO) construct was ...
A-to-I mRNA editing in animals is mediated by ADARs, but the mechanism underlying sexual stage-specific A-to-I mRNA editing in fungi remains unknown. Here, we show that the eukaryotic tRNA-specific heterodimeric deaminase FgTad2-FgTad3 is responsible for
