Individual synthetic Cys2His2 zinc finger domains with novel DNA-binding specificities can be identified from large randomized libraries using selection methodologies such as phage display. We have previously demonstrated that a bacterial cell-based two-hybrid system is at least as effective as phage display for selecting zinc fingers with desired specificities from such libraries. In this chapter we provide updated, detailed protocols for performing zinc finger selections using the bacterial two-hybrid system.

U6 snRNA (small nuclear ribonucleic acid) is a ribozyme that catalyzes pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) splicing and undergoes epitranscriptomic modifications. After transcription, the 3'-end of U6 snRNA is oligo-uridylylated by the multi-domain terminal uridylyltransferase (TUTase), TUT1. The 3'- oligo-uridylylated tail of U6 snRNA is crucial for U4/U6 di-snRNP (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein) formation and pre-mRNA splicing.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by articular cartilage degeneration. Chondrocyte inflammation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix degradation accelerated OA progression. MicroRNA (miRNA) has the potential to be a therapeutic method for osteoarthritis.

Error-prone translesion polymerases have been shown to switch with high-fidelity replicative polymerases to help navigate repetitive DNA. We and others have demonstrated the importance of one such translesion polymerase, polymerase Eta (pol eta), in facilitating replication at genomic regions called common fragile sites (CFS), which are difficult-to-replicate genomic regions that are hypersensitive to replication stress.

Elucidating PRC1 composition and function across cell types and developmental stages is key to understanding the epigenetic regulation of cell fate determination. In this study, we discovered POGZ, a prominent Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) risk factor, as a novel component of PRC1.
