DNA replication was studied in nuclei isolated from soybean cells grown in suspension culture. The isolation procedure involved the preparation of protoplasts, their lysis with a nonionic detergent and purification of nuclei. These nuclei synthesized low molecular weight DNA and joined these fragments into DNA of intermediate molecular weight. The characteristics of replication in isolated nuclei correlated well with those of the cells from which they were isolated, as shown by fluorodeoxyuridine synchronization and ultraviolet irradiation experiments.

Bulk methods to fractionate organelles lack the resolution to capture single-cell heterogeneity. While microfluidic approaches attempt to fractionate organelles at the cellular level, they fail to map each organelle back to its cell of origin-crucial for multiomics applications. To address this, we developed VacTrap, a high-throughput microfluidic device for isolating and spatially indexing single nuclei from mammalian cells.

Scanty information is available about the deleterious effects of Pymetrozine on fish especially bighead carp. Hence, the current study investigated chronic toxicological effects of pymetrozine in bighead carp.

Objective: Somatic variants causing epilepsy are challenging to detect, as they are only present in a subset of brain cells (e.g., mosaic), resulting in low variant allele frequencies.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a spectroscopic technique based on the absorption of radiofrequency radiation by atomic nuclei in the presence of an external magnetic field. NMR has followed a "bottom-up" approach to solve the structures of isolated domains of viral proteins, including capsid protein subunits, or to provide information about other macromolecular partners with which such proteins interact. NMR has been instrumental in describing conformational changes in viral proteins and nucleic acids, showing the presence of dynamic equilibria which are thought to be important at different stages of the virus life cycle.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-assisted genome editing has been applied to several major edible agaricomycetes, enabling efficient gene targeting. This method is promising for rapid and efficient breeding to isolate high-value cultivars and overcome cultivation challenges. However, the integration of foreign DNA fragments during this process raises concerns regarding genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and their regulatory restrictions.
