The Shu complex is an ATPase that regulates Rad51 filaments during homologous recombination in the DNA damage response.

Rad51 filaments are Rad51-coated single-stranded DNA and essential in homologous recombination (HR). The yeast Shu complex (Shu) is a conserved regulator of homologous recombination, working through its modulation on Rad51 filaments to direct HR-associated DNA damage response. However, the biochemical properties of Shu remain unclear, which hinders molecular insights into Shu's role in HR and the DNA damage response.

Comparative Evaluation of Pimecrolimus Cream 1% and Triamcinolone Aceonide Paste in Treatment of Atrophic-Erosive Oral Lichen Planus.

Objectives: This study was done to assess the effects of pimecrolimus cream 1% and triamcinolone aceonide paste in the treatment of atrophic-erosive oral lichen planus.

Materials And Methods: A total of 100 patients diagnosed both clinically and histopathologically as lichen planus were considered in the present study. Subjects were classified into two groups.

Oral Submucous Fibrosis: Correlation of Clinical Grading to Various Habit Factors.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to correlate the clinical grading of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) with various habit factors and to observe the habit factors associated with the severity of OSMF.

Materials And Methods: This study was carried out in the Department of Oral Medicine and Radiology, Kalinga Institute of Dental Sciences, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. Two hundred patients clinically diagnosed with OSMF were included in the study.

Candidate genes of flavonoid biosynthesis in Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker identified by RNA-Seq.

In the present study, de novo transcriptome analysis of Selaginella bryopteris in frond and root was performed to understand the regulation of flavonoid (FL) biosynthesis. High-quality data of 5.84 and 5.

The development of non-coding RNA ontology.

Identification of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) has been significantly improved over the past decade. On the other hand, semantic annotation of ncRNA data is facing critical challenges due to the lack of a comprehensive ontology to serve as common data elements and data exchange standards in the field. We developed the Non-Coding RNA Ontology (NCRO) to handle this situation.
