In Silico Prediction of O⁶-Methylguanine-DNA Methyltransferase Inhibitory Potency of Base Analogs with QSAR and Machine Learning Methods.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
O⁶-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), a unique DNA repair enzyme, can confer resistance to DNA anticancer alkylating agents that modify the O⁶-position of guanine. Thus, inhibition of MGMT activity in tumors has a great interest for cancer r...

Photoelectrochemical biosensor for HEN1 RNA methyltransferase detection using peroxidase mimics PtCu NFs and poly(U) polymerase-mediated RNA extension.

Biosensors & bioelectronics
2'-O-methyl group on the 3' terminal nucleotide in plant microRNAs, as one kind of RNA methylations, is caused by HEN1 RNA methyltransferase (HENMT1), which is thought to be crucial for ribosome biogenesis and function. Herein, a simple and label-fre...

CACHE Challenge #2: Targeting the RNA Site of the SARS-CoV-2 Helicase Nsp13.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
A critical assessment of computational hit-finding experiments (CACHE) challenge was conducted to predict ligands for the SARS-CoV-2 Nsp13 helicase RNA binding site, a highly conserved COVID-19 target. Twenty-three participating teams comprised of co...

Deep and accurate detection of m6A RNA modifications using miCLIP2 and m6Aboost machine learning.

Nucleic acids research
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal RNA modification in eukaryotic mRNAs and influences many aspects of RNA processing. miCLIP (m6A individual-nucleotide resolution UV crosslinking and immunoprecipitation) is an antibody-based appr...

[Alpinetin promotes the binding of PPAR and methyltransferase].

Xi bao yu fen zi mian yi xue za zhi = Chinese journal of cellular and molecular immunology
Objective To screen the nucleus located-methyltransferase in murine macrophages (RAW246.7 cells) after peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) is activated by alpinetin so as to prove the epigenetic modification effect of alpinetin. Method...
