High-intensity transcription and replication supercoil DNA to levels that can impede or halt these processes. As a potent amplifier accelerator, the proto-oncogene MYC must manage this interfering torsional stress. By comparing gene expression with recruitment of topoisomerases promoters, we surmised direct association topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) TOP2 was confirmed in vitro cells. Beyond recruiting topoisomerases, directly stimulates their activities. We identify MYC-nucleated "topoisome" complex...

Transcription in the nucleus occurs a concentrated, dense environment, and no reasonable biochemical facsimile of this milieu exists. Such environment would be important for further understanding transcriptional regulation. We describe here formation dense, transcriptionally active bodies vitro with only nuclear extracts promoter DNA. These biomolecular condensates (BMCs) are 0.5 to 1 μm diameter, have macromolecular density approximately 100 mg/ml, consequence phase transition between DNA...

The persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a major problem in managing (TB). Host-generated nitric oxide (NO) perceived as one the signals by Mtb to reprogram metabolism and respiration for persistence. However, mechanisms involved NO sensing reorganizing Mtb's physiology are not fully understood. Since damages iron-sulfur (Fe–S) clusters essential enzymes, mechanism(s) regulating Fe–S cluster biogenesis could help persist host tissues. Here, we show that transcription factor...

Energy plays a prominent role in human society. As result of technological and industrial development, the demand for energy is rapidly increasing. Existing power sources that are mainly fossil fuel based leaving an unacceptable legacy waste pollution apart from diminishing stock fuels. Hence, focus now shifted to large-scale propagation renewable energy. Renewable technologies clean have much lower environmental impact than conventional technologies. Solar one such Most comes either...
