Alternative 3′ UTR polyadenylation is disrupted in the rNLS8 mouse model of ALS/FTLD by Randall J. Eck, Paul N. Valdmanis, Nicole F. Liachko, Brian C. Kraemer

“…Here, we identify significant disruptions to 3` UTR polyadenylation in the ALS/FTLD-TDP mouse model rNLS8 that correlate with changes in gene expression and protein levels through the re-analysis of published RNA sequencing and proteomic data. A subset of these changes are shared with TDP-43 knock-down mice suggesting depletion of endogenous mouse TDP-43 is a contributor to polyadenylation dysfunction in rNLS8 mice. …”

Stability Constants of Mixed Ligand Complexes of Nickel(II) with Adenine and Some Amino Acids by Naciye Türkel

“…Nickel is also present in nucleic acids, though its function in DNA or RNA is still not clearly understood. In this study, complex formation tendencies of Ni(II) with adenine and certain L-amino acids such as aspartic acid, glutamic acid, asparagine, leucine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan were investigated in an aqueous medium. …”

Production of Secretory Leucocyte Protease Inhibitor (SLPI) in Human Pancreatic β-Cells by Max Nyström, Magnus Bergenfeldt, Irena Ljungcrantz, Èsa Lindeheim, Kjell Ohlsson

“…Since SLPI is an inhibitor of pancreatic proteases we wished to investigate whether SLPI was also actually produced in the pancreas. M-RNA from human pancreatic tissue showed evidence of SLPI production using the reverse transcriptase polymer chain reaction technique (RTPCR). …”
