Signaling through plexin, the major cell surface receptor for semaphorin, plays critical roles in regulating processes such as neuronal axon guidance, angiogenesis and immune response. Plexin is normally kept inactive in the absence of sema...

Deamination of the exocyclic amines in adenine, guanine and cytosine forms base lesions that may lead to mutations if not removed by DNA repair proteins. Prokaryotic endonuclease V (EndoV/Nfi) has long been known to incise DNA 3' to a varie...
