The Cry1Fa insecticidal protein from (Bt) was expressed on the surface of (Bs) spores to create transgenic Bs spores referred to as Spore-Cry1Fa. Cry1Fa, along with its leader sequence, was connected to the carboxyl end of a Bs spore outercoat protein, CotC, through a flexible linker. The Arg-27 residue of the Cry1Fa protein was mutated to Leu to prevent detachment from the spores due to protease digestion.

Intratumour hypoxia is a feature of all heterogenous solid tumours. Increased levels or subregions of tumour hypoxia are associated with an adverse clinical prognosis, particularly when this co-occurs with genomic instability. Experimental evidence points to the acquisition of DNA and chromosomal alterations in proliferating hypoxic cells secondary to inhibition of DNA repair pathways such as homologous recombination, base excision repair and mismatch repair.

Interferon alpha (IFNa) is approved for the therapy of patients (pts) with polycythemia vera (PV), a subtype of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Some pts achieve molecular responses (MR), but clonal factors sensitizing for MR remain elusive. We integrated colony formation and differentiation assays with single-cell RNA seq and genotyping in PV-derived cells vs.

Background: Unraveling the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC) can aid in developing prevention and treatment strategies. Aurora kinase A (AURKA) is a key participant in mitotic control and interacts with its co-activator, the targeting protein for Xklp2 (TPX2) microtubule nucleation factor. AURKA is associated with poor clinical outcomes and high risks of CRC recurrence.

Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) derived from genetically modified mice are a valuable resource for studying gene function and regulation. The MEF system can also be combined with rescue studies to characterize the function of mutant genes/proteins, such as disease-causing variants. However, primary MEFs undergo senescence soon after isolation and passaging, making long-term genetic manipulations difficult.
