    Abstract The CRISPR/Cas9 system is a popular genome-editing tool with immense therapeutic potential. It is a simple two-component system (Cas9 protein and RNA) that recognizes the DNA sequence on the basis of RNA:DNA complementarity, and the Cas9 protein catalyzes the double-stranded break in the DNA. In the past decade, near-atomic resolution structures at various stages of the CRISPR/Cas9 DNA editing pathway have been reported along with numerous experimental and computational studies. Such studies have boosted knowledge of the genome-editing mechanism. Despite such advancements, the application of CRISPR/Cas9 in therapeutics is still limited, primarily due to off-target effects. Several studies aim at engineering high-fidelity Cas9 to minimize the off-target effects. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have been an excellent complement to the experimental studies for investigating the mechanism of CRISPR/Cas9 editing in terms of structure, thermodynamics, and kinetics. MD-based studies have uncovered several important molecular aspects of Cas9, such as nucleotide binding, catalytic mechanism, and off-target effects. In this Review, the contribution of MD simulation to understand the CRISPR/Cas9 mechanism has been discussed, preceded by an overview of the history, mechanism, and structural aspects of the CRISPR/Cas9 system. These studies are important for the rational design of highly specific Cas9 and will also be extremely promising for achieving more accurate genome editing in the future.

    Abstract One carbon (1C) metabolism is critical for cellular viability and physiological homeostasis. Starting from its crucial involvement in purine biosynthesis to posttranslational modification of proteins, 1C metabolism contributes significantly to the development and cellular differentiation through methionine and folate cycles that are pivotal for cellular function. Genetic polymorphisms of several genes of these pathways are implicated in disease pathogenesis and drug metabolism. Metabolic products of 1C metabolism have significant roles in epigenetic modifications through DNA and histone protein methylation. Homocysteine is a product that has clinical significance in the diagnosis and prognosis of several critical illnesses, including chronic immune diseases and cancers. Regulation of the function and differentiation of immune cells, including T-cells, B-cells, macrophages, and so forth, are directly influenced by 1C metabolism and thus have direct implications in several immune disease biology. Recent research on therapeutic approaches is targeting nuclear, cytoplasmic, and mitochondrial 1C metabolism to manage and treat metabolic (i.e., type 2 diabetes), neurodegenerative (i.e., Alzheimer's disease), or immune (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis) diseases. 1C metabolism is being explored for therapeutic intervention as a common determinant for a spectrum of immune and metabolic diseases. Identifying the association or correlation between essential metabolic products of this pathway and disease onset or prognosis would further facilitate the clinical monitoring of diseases.

    Abstract The review study aims to identify several chains of socio-political events in the forest and wildlife management sectors in India and Germany, which interfered and affected its natural biodiversity during the 19th century. It also deals with the understanding of formulation of laws as an effort to reduce the impact of exploitation of native forests and biodiversity in the respective countries. The comparative study of forest management of India and Germany dates back to more than hundred years when Sir Dietrich Brandis, a German forester, who is now recognized as the Father of Tropical Forestry was appointed as the forest administrator of India by the British Government. The study explores the critical issues in the forest and biodiversity management sectors that were identified more than a century ago and are still prevalent in many parts of the countries which resulted in severe loss of natural biodiversity. The importance of conservation and restoration along with the formulation of forest and biodiversity laws under several circumstances are also highlighted in the study.

    Abstract Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of the most common causes of perinatally acquired infection worldwide. It affects almost every organ system with varied type of clinical manifestation. In this case series, effect of perinatally acquired cytomegalovirus infection was studied on relatively unexplored area i.e, on growth hormone axis. Effect of standard antiviral treatment was also studied in these children. Five children were diagnosed to have perinatally acquired cytomegalovirus infection and it was found that all of these children were suffering from growth hormone deficiency (as evidenced by low insulin-like growth factor 1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 level as well). Some of the children were also found to have other endocrine manifestations like hypothyroidism and hypoglycaemia. They were treated with intravenous Ganciclovir followed by oral Valganciclovir and most of them responded well.

    Abstract A small heat shock protein, HSP27, encoded by HSPB1 gene strongly favors survival, proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells and its expression is dependent on post-translational modifications like phosphorylation. This study performed an extensive in silico screening of 20 deleterious non-synonymous SNPs in the coding region of HSPB1 gene, among which four were identified to be cancer associated. The SNP variant I181S introduced a new phosphorylation site in position 181, which might elevate the protein's activation potential. Emergence of other post-translational modifications was also observed in SNP variants: L144P and E130K.Significant conformational changes were observed in I181S, L144P and E130K SNP variants with respect to wild-type HSP27. These SNPs appear in one among 10

    Abstract The ionization state of amino acids on the outer surface of a virus regulates its physicochemical properties toward the sorbent surface. Serologically different strains of the dengue virus (DENV) show different extents of infectivity depending upon their interactions with a receptor on the host cell. To understand the structural dependence of E-protein protonation over its sequence dependence, we have followed E-protein titration kinetics both experimentally and theoretically for two differentially infected dengue serotypes, namely, DENV-2 and DENV-4. We have performed E-protein protonation titration-induced single-particle chemical force spectroscopy using an atomic force microscope (AFM) to measure the surface chemistry of DENV in physiological aqueous solutions not only to understand the charge distribution dynamics on the virus surface but also to estimate the isoelectric point (pI) accurately for infectious dengue viruses. Cryo-EM structure-based theoretical pI calculations of the DENV-2 surface protein were shown to be consistent with the evaluated pI value from force spectroscopy measurements. We also highlighted here the role of the microenvironment around the titrable residues (in the 3D-folded structure of the protein) in altering the p

    Abstract While noninvasive arterial blood oxygenation is easily estimated using peripheral pulse oximeters, noninvasive venous blood oxygenation monitoring is still a critical unmet need. Critical conditions that lead to inefficient extraction of oxygen from the blood, such as sepsis or shock, can only be detected by analyzing the oxygen content of the venous blood. In this work, we introduce a soft wearable e-tattoo sensor that simultaneously measures the arterial and venous pulses from the wrist. First, we prove that the origin of the signal is venous pulsatility. We hypothesize that a significant obstacle for simultaneous SaO2 and SvO2 extraction is the close proximity of the artery and vein, thus leading to crosstalk. We characterize this crosstalk with simulation, in vitro, and in vivo experiments. Finally, we offer a potential solution for minimizing the crosstalk through spatial filtering.Clinical Relevance- This lays foundational work for a novel method of noninvasively and simultaneously measuring arterial and venous blood oxygenation to improve clinical diagnoses of sepsis, shock, and metabolic abnormalities.
