We theoretically study the electron transport properties of DNA nucleotides placed in the gap between two single-wall carbon nanotubes capped or terminated with H or N. We show that in the case of C-cap and H-termination the current at low electric bias is dominated by nonresonant tunneling, similarly to the cases of gold electrodes. In nitrogen-terminated nanotube electrodes, the nature of current is primarily quasiresonant tunneling and is increased by several orders of magnitude. We discuss the consequence of our result on the possibility of recognition at the level of single molecule.

The impact of mitochondrial and lysosomal co-dysfunction on breast cancer patient outcomes is unclear. The objective of this study is to develop a predictive machine learning (ML) model utilizing mitochondrial and lysosomal co-regulators in order to provide a foundation for future studies focused on breast cancer (BC) patients' stratification and personalized interventions. Firstly, Differences and correlations of mitochondrial and lysosome related genes were screened and validated by differential analysis, copy number variation (CNV), single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) and correlation analysis.

Bacterial and viral RNA polymerases are promising targets for the development of new transcription inhibitors. One of the potential blockers of RNA synthesis is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,-ethenoadenine (oxo-εA), a synthetic compound that combines two adenine modifications: 8-oxoadenine and 1,-ethenoadenine. In this study, we synthesized oxo-εA triphosphate (oxo-εATP) and showed that it could be incorporated by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of SARS-CoV-2 into synthesized RNA opposite template residues A and G in the presence of Mn ions.
