The anticodon domain of lysine transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) is a model system for investigation of the structural and biochemical effects of nucleoside posttranscriptional modification. To enable detailed study of the biophysical and structural effects of hypermodified nucleosides, methods have been developed to synthesize RNA oligonucleotides containing the modified nucleosides found in lysine tRNA. We describe in detail the synthesis of protected phosphoramidites of the nucleosides methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine (mnm5s2U), methylcarboxymethyl-2-thiouridine (mcm5s2U), and 2-thiomethyl-N-6-carbamoylthreonyl-adenosine (ms2t6A). We also describe methods for using these nucleoside phosphoramidite reagents to synthesize RNA oligonucleotides with modified nucleosides incorporated at the specific sequence locations corresponding to their positions in the native lysine tRNAs.

RNA pesticides have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional chemical pesticides due to their high specificity and minimal environmental impact. However, the instability of RNA molecules in the environment and the challenges associated with their effective delivery to target pests limit their broader application. This study addresses these challenges by developing a dual delivery system using chitosan (CS) and Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) to enhance the delivery and efficacy of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and cycloxaprid against , a vector of citrus greening disease.

Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is a common malignancy with high heterogeneity and a lack of highly precise treatment options. We downloaded the multiomics data of STAD patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD cohort, which included mRNA, microRNA, long non-coding RNA, somatic mutation, and DNA methylation data, from the sxdyc website. We synthesized the multiomics data of patients with STAD using 10 clustering methods, construct a consensus machine learning-driven signature (CMLS)-related prognostic models by combining 10 machine learning methods, and evaluated the prognosis models using the C-index.

Azurin, a bacterial blue-copper protein, has garnered significant attention as a potential anticancer drug in recent years. Among twenty Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, we identified one isolate that demonstrated potent and remarkable azurin synthesis using the VITEK 2 system and 16S rRNA sequencing. The presence of the azurin gene was confirmed in the genomic DNA using specific oligonucleotide primers, and azurin expression was also detected in the synthesized cDNA, which revealed that the azurin expression is active.

Single-stranded guide RNAs (sgRNAs) are important therapeutic modalities that facilitate selective genome editing by the CRISPR/Cas9 system. While these therapeutic modalities are synthesized through solid phase oligonucleotide synthesis similar to small interfering RNA (siRNAs) and antisense oligonucleotide (ASOs) therapeutics, their sequence length and complex secondary and tertiary structure hinder analytical characterization. The resulting current sgRNA methodologies have limited chromatographic selectivity near the FLP and limited MS compatibility.

Preventing bacterial infection and accelerating wound closure are critical for wound healing. Herein, a novel multifunctional polyvinyl alcohol-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVA-PVP) microneedle (MN) patch embedded with enzyme-like activity (CoFe)(S) (CFS) nanoparticles and metal ions (Co and Fe) was systematically synthesized for the management of bacteria-infected wounds. CFS regulated redox homeostasis and achieved bacterial eradication while concomitantly alleviating oxidative damage.
