Mechanistic insights into Lhr helicase function in DNA repair (2020)
Journal Article
Buckley, R., Kramm, K., Cooper, C. D. O., Grohmann, D., & Bolt, E. L. (2020). Mechanistic insights into Lhr helicase function in DNA repair. Biochemical Journal, 477(16), 2935–2947. https://doi.org/10.1042/bcj20200379

The DNA helicase Lhr is present throughout archaea, including in the Asgard and Nanoarchaea, and has homologues in bacteria and eukaryotes. It is thought to function in DNA repair but in a context that is not known. Our data show that archaeal Lhr pr... Read More about Mechanistic insights into Lhr helicase function in DNA repair.

A gold standard, CRISPR/Cas9-based complementation strategy reliant on 24 nucleotide bookmark sequences (2020)
Journal Article
Seys, F. M., Rowe, P., Bolt, E. L., Humphreys, C. M., & Minton, N. P. (2020). A gold standard, CRISPR/Cas9-based complementation strategy reliant on 24 nucleotide bookmark sequences. Genes, 11(4), Article 458. https://doi.org/10.3390/genes11040458

© 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Phenotypic complementation of gene knockouts is an essential step in establishing function. Here, we describe a simple strategy for ‘gold standard’ complementation in which the mutant allele i...

Cas3 Protein—A Review of a Multi-Tasking Machine (2020)
Journal Article
He, L., St. John James, M., Radovcic, M., Ivancic-Bace, I., & Bolt, E. L. (2020). Cas3 Protein—A Review of a Multi-Tasking Machine. Genes, 11(2), Article 208. https://doi.org/10.3390/genes11020208

Cas3 has essential functions in CRISPR immunity but its other activities and roles, in vitro and in cells, are less widely known. We offer a concise review of the latest understanding and questions arising from studies of Cas3 mechanism during CRISPR... Read More about Cas3 Protein—A Review of a Multi-Tasking Machine.
