The down‐regulation of dominant oncogenes, including C‐MYC, in tumor cells often leads to the induction of
senescence via mechanisms that are not completely identified. In the current study, we demonstrate that MYC‐depl ...

Genomic instability drives tumorigenesis, but how it is initiated in sporadic neoplasias is unknown. In early preneoplasias, alterations at chromosome fragile sites arise due to DNA replication stress. A frequent, perhap ...

Background: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are synthesized and secreted by immune and epithelial cells that are constantly exposed to environmental microbes. AMPs are essential for barrier defense and deficiencies lead to ...
The effects of pH on the torsional flexibility of DNA bound to a
nucleosome core particle were investigated by studying the time-resolved
fluorescence anisotropy decays of ethidium bromide intercalated into the DNA
of ...

The putative methyltransferase LaeA is a global regulator that affects the expression of multiple secondary metabolite gene clusters in several fungi, and it can modify heterochromatin structure in Aspergillus nidulans. ...
