AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on the DNA content changes in spores of Streptoverticillium mycoheptinicum during incubation and germination.
  • After five hours in a nutrient medium at 28°C, the DNA content in the spores increased.
  • Different stages of germination showed distinct patterns: DNA replication began during activation, and by the initiation stage, the DNA content doubled for most spores, though the synthesis rate varied among individual spores.

Article Abstract

Changes in the DNA content were studied in the spores of Streptoverticillium mycoheptinicum. The content of DNA increased in the spores when they were incubated in a liquid nutrient medium at 28 degrees C for 5 hours. Changes in the DNA content during germination of spores corresponded to individual stages: at the stage of activation, the replication of DNA only commenced; at the stage of initiation, the content of DNA doubled in the majority of spores in the population. The rate of DNA synthesis varied among different spores of the actinomycete.

ABCA4 Deep Intronic Variants Contributed to Nearly Half of Unsolved Stargardt Cases With a Milder Phenotype.

Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci

State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Guangzhou, China.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution and natural progression of ABCA4 deep intronic variants (DIVs) among a Chinese Stargardt disease (STGD) cohort.

Methods: For unsolved STGD probands, DIVs in ABCA4 were detected by next-generation sequencing, and splicing effects were evaluated by in silico tools and validated through minigene experiments. Comprehensive ocular examinations, especially fundus changes, were carried out and analyzed.

Background: Previously, we demonstrated that changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) are promising biomarkers for early response prediction (ERP) to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC). In this study, we investigated the value of whole blood immunotranscriptomics for ERP-ICI and integrated both biomarkers into a multimodal model to boost accuracy.

Methods: Blood samples of 93 patients were collected at baseline and after 2-6 weeks of ICI for ctDNA (N=88) and immunotranscriptome (N=79) analyses.

Cryo-EM structure of AAV2 Rep68 bound to integration site AAVS1: insights into the mechanism of DNA melting.

Nucleic Acids Res

January 2025

Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Virginia Commonwealth University, School of Medicine, Richmond, VA 23298, United States.

The Rep68 protein from Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) is a multifunctional SF3 helicase that performs most of the DNA transactions necessary for the viral life cycle. During AAV DNA replication, Rep68 assembles at the origin of replication, catalyzing the DNA melting and nicking reactions during the hairpin rolling replication process to complete the second-strand synthesis of the AAV genome. We report the cryo-electron microscopy structures of Rep68 bound to the adeno-associated virus integration site 1 in different nucleotide-bound states.

Zooarchaeology of Managed, Captive, Tame, and Domestic Birds: Shifts in Human-Avian Relationships.

J Archaeol Res

January 2025

Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies/Globe Insititute, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.

In this paper, I review archaeological evidence for shifting human-avian interactions. Many species of birds, altering their behavior in response to anthropogenic niche construction, experienced an increased encounter rate with humans. Intensification of this relationship led to management and domestication of some taxa.
