Enhanced expression and purification of nucleotide-specific ribonucleases MC1 and Cusativin

Sebastian Gruenberg et al.

Summary: Combination of ribonucleases (RNases) is commonly used to digest RNA into oligoribonucleotide fragments for liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis. Cusativin and MC1, nucleotide-specific endoribonucleases, are ideal tools for RNA modification mapping due to their high specificity for cytidine and uridine. New efficient and time-saving protocols have been developed to enhance the expression and purification of these RNases, resulting in highly active recombinant enzymes.

Epitranscriptomic Reprogramming Is Required to Prevent Stress and Damage from Acetaminophen

Sara Evke et al.

Summary: In this study, we investigate how acetaminophen induces epitranscriptomic reprogramming and the role of the writer enzyme Alkylation Repair Homolog 8 (Alkbh8) in gene regulation during this response. We find that APAP promotes large-scale reprogramming of various RNA marks, and deficiency in Alkbh8 leads to widespread dysregulation of the epitranscriptome. Our findings highlight the importance of RNA modifications and translational responses to pharmaceuticals.

Toward the solution of the protein structure prediction problem

Robin Pearce et al.

Summary: The protein structure prediction problem has been a key task in structural biology since 1973. Traditionally, template-based modeling (TBM) has been the most reliable approach for predicting protein structures, but recent research shows that end-to-end deep machine learning techniques can better solve this problem.

Protein Structure Prediction: Conventional and Deep Learning Perspectives

V. A. Jisna et al.

Summary: Protein structure prediction is a challenging task in computational biology and chemistry, as accurately predicting protein structures is crucial for understanding their function. Experimental methods like X-ray crystallography, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, and Electron Microscopy are time-consuming and require expertise. Machine learning approaches, particularly co-evolution based methods, have recently gained interest in the prediction community, but the accuracy depends on the availability of homologous protein sequences.
