Whereas hydroxyl radical is commonly named as the Fenton product responsible for DNA and RNA damage in cells, here we demonstrate that the cellular reaction generates carbonate radical anion due to physiological levels of bicarbonate. Analysis of the metabolome, transcriptome and, in human cells, the nuclear genome shows a consistent buffering of HO-induced oxidative stress leading to one common pathway, namely guanine oxidation. Particularly revealing are nanopore-based studies of direct RNA sequencing of cytosolic and mitochondrial ribosomal RNA along with glycosylase-dependent qPCR studies of oxidative DNA damage in telomeres. The focusing of oxidative modification on one pathway is consistent with the highly evolved base excision repair suite of enzymes and their involvement in gene regulation in response to oxidative stress.

We describe a protocol to amplify DNA barcodes of known and unknown taxa of Phytophthora and related plant pathogenic oomycetes from a range of environments. The methods focus on sampling pathogen propagules from water using in situ sampling and filtration equipment and buffers that enable efficient storage and DNA extraction for later downstream processing.

Mitochondrial DNA encodes essential components of the respiratory chain complexes, serving as the foundation of mitochondrial respiratory function. Mutations in mtDNA primarily impair energy metabolism, exerting far-reaching effects on cellular physiology, particularly in the context of aging. The intrinsic vulnerability of mtDNA is increasingly recognized as a key driver in the initiation of aging and the progression of its related diseases.

Inflammation and oxidative stress play crucial roles in the development and progression of skeletal muscle diseases. This review aims to examine the existing evidence regarding the involvement and inhibition of APE1/Ref-1 (apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1/redox factor 1) in diseases, then extrapolate this evidence to the context of skeletal muscle and discuss the potential beneficial effects of APE1/Ref-1 inhibition in ameliorating myopathy with a particular focus on dystrophic pathology. Currently, therapeutic interventions targeting pathways, such as nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2), have shown limited efficacy in both clinical and preclinical settings.

The multifunctional catalytic hemoglobin from the terebellid polychaete , also named dehaloperoxidase (DHP), utilizes the typical oxygen transport function in addition to four observed activities involved in substrate oxidation. The multifunctional ability of DHP is presently a rare observation, and there exists a limitation for how novel dehaloperoxidases can be identified from macrobenthic infauna. In order to discover more infaunal DHP-bearing candidates, we have devised a facilitated method for an accurate taxonomic identification that places visual and molecular taxonomic approaches in parallel.
