In recent years, inexpensive and fruitful gene editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 and NaAgo have revolutionized the biotechnology industry. Genetically edited organisms, gene therapy, treatment of diseases such as AIDS and editing human cells are some of the marvelous applications of such technologies. Using such technologies in large scale or granting exclusive rights on their products or ...
متن کاملATM loss leads to synthetic lethality in BRCA1 BRCT mutant mice associated with exacerbated defects in homology-directed repair.
BRCA1 is essential for homology-directed repair (HDR) of DNA double-strand breaks in part through antagonism of the nonhomologous end-joining factor 53BP1. The ATM kinase is involved in various aspects of DNA damage signaling and repair, but how ATM participates in HDR and genetically interacts with BRCA1 in this process is unclear. To investigate this question, we used the Brca1S1598F mouse mo...
متن کاملDesign and bioinformatics analysis of novel biomimetic peptides as nanocarriers for gene transfer
Objective(s): The introduction of nucleic acids into cells for therapeutic objectives is significantly hindered by the size and charge of these molecules and therefore requires efficient vectors that assist cellular uptake. For several years great efforts have been devoted to the study of development of recombinant vectors based on biological domains with potential applications in gene therapy....
متن کاملClass I histone deacetylase inhibitors inhibit the retention of BRCA1 and 53BP1 at the site of DNA damage
BRCA1 and 53BP1 antagonistically regulate homology-directed repair (HDR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) of DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). The histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A directly inhibits the retention of 53BP1 at DSB sites by acetylating histone H4 (H4ac), which interferes with 53BP1 binding to dimethylated histone H4 Lys20 (H4K20me2). Conversely, we recently fo...
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Fowl Adenovirus Associated with Inclusion Body Hepatitis in Iran
Background and Aims: Inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) is one of the most important reemerging diseases in many countries with intensive poultry industries. In Iran, the etiological agent of IBH (fowl adenovirus) has not been yet confirmed. The aim of this study was the molecular detection and identification of fowl adenovirus involving IBH in chicken flocks in Iran. Materials and Methods: Polymer...
