The Smc5/6 complex is a highly conserved molecular machine involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. While its functions largely depend on restraining the fork remodeling activity of Mph1 in yeast, the presence of an analogous Smc5/6-FANCM regulation in humans remains unknown. We generated human cell lines harboring mutations in the NSE1 subunit of the Smc5/6 complex. Point mutations or truncations in the RING domain of NSE1 result in drastically reduced Smc5/6 protein levels, with differential contribution of the two zinc-coordinating centers in the RING. In addition, nse1-RING mutant cells display cell growth defects, reduced replication fork rates, and increased genomic instability. Notably, our findings uncover a synthetic sick interaction between Smc5/6 and FANCM and show that Smc5/6 controls fork progression and chromosome disjunction in a FANCM-independent manner. Overall, our study demonstrates that the NSE1 RING domain plays vital roles in Smc5/6 complex stability and fork progression through pathways that are not evolutionary conserved.

Background: Past studies examining sleep-cognition relationships mostly employed univariate approaches, which are subject to problems such as multicollinearity and multiple comparisons. Further, results from small sample univariate analyses are difficult to compare, precluding the identification of the aspects of sleep health associated with a particular cognitive domain(s). The current study used a multivariate approach to identify key sleep metrics and cognitive domains that contribute to the maximum sleep-cognition covariance in healthy older adults.

Background: Although pentatricopeptide repeat domain 1 (PTCD1) has been found to modulate mitochondrial metabolic and oxidative phosphorylation, its contribution in the growth of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains unknown.
Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset was utilized to examine the transcriptional alterations, patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, as well as pathway activation of PTCD1. The Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) was performed to investigate potential genes that associated with PTCD1.

A novel plant virus was identified in fig trees exhibiting ring spot symptoms through high-throughput sequencing (HTS). The complete genome sequence was successfully determined using PCR and RT-PCR techniques. The virus features a circular DNA genome of 7233 nucleotides (nt) in length, encompassing four open reading frames (ORFs).

In this paper, we demonstrate the performance of several density-based methods in predicting the inversion of S1 and T1 states of a few N-heterocyclic triangulene based fused ring molecules (popularly known as INVEST molecules) with an eye to identify a well performing but cost-effective preliminary screening method. Both conventional linear-response time-dependent density functional theory (LR-TDDFT) and ΔSCF methods (namely maximum overlap method, square-gradient minimization method, and restricted open-shell Kohn-Sham) are considered for excited state computations using exchange-correlation (XC) functionals from different rungs of Jacob's ladder. A well-justified systematism is observed in the performance of the functionals when compared against fully internally contracted multireference configuration interaction singles and doubles and/or equation of motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles (EOM-CCSD), with the most important feature being the capture of spin-polarization in the presence of correlation.
