Zinc and RNA Binding Is Linked to the Conformational Flexibility of ZRANB2: A CCCC-Type Zinc Finger Protein.

Ran-binding domain-containing protein 2 (ZRANB2) is a zinc finger (ZF) protein that plays a key role in alternative splicing. ZRANB2 is composed of two ZF domains that contain four invariant cysteine residues per domain. ZRANB2 binds RNA targets that contain AGGUAA sequence motifs.

DART.2: bidirectional synaptic pharmacology with thousandfold cellular specificity.

Precision pharmacology aims to manipulate specific cellular interactions within complex tissues. In this pursuit, we introduce DART.2 (drug acutely restricted by tethering), a second-generation cell-specific pharmacology technology.

[Intravesical oxybutynin treatment for neurogenic detrusor overactivity : Efficacy and safety data from clinical practice with the first intravesical oxybutynin treatment authorized in Germany].

Existing therapies for neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), i.e. oral anticholinergics and botulinum toxin injections, can be associated with serious adverse effects or are not always sufficiently effective.

From rare events to systematic data collection: the RESCUED registry for sudden cardiac death in the young in Germany.

Background: Approximately one-third of sudden cardiac deaths in the young (SCDY) occur due to a structural cardiac disease. Forty to fifty percent of SCDY cases remain unexplained after autopsy (including microscopic and forensic-toxicological analyses), suggesting arrhythmia syndromes as a possible cause of death. Due to the possible inheritability of these diseases, blood relatives of the deceased may equally be carriers of the causative genetic variations and therefore may have an increased cardiac risk profile.
