Unique structures formed by pyrimidine-purine DNAs which may be four-stranded.
Pyrimidine-purine DNAs with repeating sequences can be made to undergo a reversible transition to possibly a tetra-stranded complex. Physicochemical characterization of the new structures and model building are consistent with, in the case of d(TC)n-d(GA)n, a tetra-stranded complex forming by the addition of d(GA)n to the remaining space in the major groove of the triple-stranded complex d(TC)n...
متن کامل[Relationship between EGFR Promoter Region Methylation and Secondary Resistance Which may be Induced by Gefitinib].
BACKGROUND Nowadays the secondary resistance of gefitinib in the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma is an outstanding problem. This research is to explore whether the gefitinib secondary resistance can be induced by gefitinib, to explore whether epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) promotor methylation correlate with the gefitinib-resistance in PC9/GR cell lines and to find a new therapeutic t...
متن کاملReplication slippage may cause parallel evolution in the secondary structures of mitochondrial transfer RNAs.
Presence of the dihydrouridine (D) stem in the mitochondrial cysteine tRNA is unusually variable among lepidosaurian reptiles. Phylogenetic and comparative analyses of cysteine tRNA gene sequences identify eight parallel losses of the D-stem, resulting in D-arm replacement loops. Sampling within the monophyletic Acrodonta provides no evidence for reversal. Slipped-strand mispairing of noncontig...
متن کاملA multifaceted FISH approach to study endogenous RNAs and DNAs in native nuclear and cell structures.
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is not a singular technique, but a battery of powerful and versatile tools for examining the distribution of endogenous genes and RNAs in precise context with each other and in relation to specific proteins or cell structures. This unit offers the details of highly sensitive and successful protocols that were initially developed largely in our lab and h...
متن کاملEnumerating secondary structures and structural moieties for circular RNAs.
A quantitative characterization of the relationship between molecular sequence and structure is essential to improve our understanding of how function emerges. This particular genotype-phenotype map has been often studied in the context of RNA sequences, with the folded configurations standing as a proxy for the phenotype. Here, we count the secondary structures of circular RNAs of length n and...
