Journal ArticleDOI

A method for imaging E. coli. RNA polymerase holoenzyme with the scanning tunneling microscope in an aqueous environment

TL;DR: An electodeposition method has been developed for depositing E. coli RNA polymerase onto a monoatomically flat gold surface and time‐dependence studies were conducted to help determine the binding mechanism of the protein.

Human demographic history impacts genetic risk prediction across diverse populations

TL;DR: This work disentangle recent population history in the widely-used 1000 Genomes Project reference panel with an emphasis on populations underrepresented in medical studies, and highlights the need for generalized risk prediction methods and the inclusion of more diverse individuals in medical genomics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coupling translocation with nucleic acid unwinding by NS3 helicase.

TL;DR: The model predicts that the NS3 helicase actively unwinds duplex by reducing more than 50% the free energy that stabilizes base pairing/stacking, which lowers the average unwinding efficiency to less than 1 bp per ATP cycle.
