With improvements in the survival rate of patients with cancer, fertility maintenance has
become a major concern in terms of cancer treatment for women of reproductive age. Thus …

Numerous cellular processes rely on the binding of proteins with high affinity to specific sets
of RNAs. Yet most RNA-binding domains display low specificity and affinity in comparison to …

The efficient delivery and stable transgene expression are critical for applications in gene
therapy. While carefully selected and engineered viral vectors allowed for remarkable …

Guanine‐rich oligonucleotides existing in both DNA and RNA are able to fold into four‐
stranded DNA secondary structures via Hoogsteen type hydrogen‐bonding, where four …

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), a malignancy of the digestive system, is
highly prevalent and the primary cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide due to the lack of …

Dead End (DND1) is an RNA-binding protein essential for germline development through its
role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. The molecular mechanisms behind selection …

The key mRNA‐binding proteins HuR and AUF1 are reported stress sensors in mammals.
Intrigued by recent reports of sensitivity of these proteins to the electrophilic lipid …

The chemokine CXCL4 has been implicated in several immune diseases. Exposure of
monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDCs) to CXCL4 potentiates the production of …

We describe a method to analyze the affinity and specificity of interactions between proteins
and RNA using horizontal PAGE under non-denaturing conditions. The method permits …

Repression of msl-2 mRNA translation is essential for viability of Drosophila melanogaster
females to prevent hypertranscription of both X chromosomes. This translational control …
