Properties of DNA in concentrated aqueous solutions of LiCl suggest transition to C-DNA

The paper investigates the B-to-C DNA transition in aqueous LiCl solutions and finds increased helical twist across all tested concentrations, suggesting C-DNA stability above 8 M LiCl.

Regulation of DIM-2-dependent repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) by the recombination-independent homologous DNA pairing in Neurospora crassa

The paper investigates DIM-2-dependent RIP in Neurospora crassa, showing GC-rich repeats and direct repeats enhance RIP efficiency through homologous DNA pairing and quadruplex formation.

Recombination-independent recognition of DNA homology for meiotic silencing in Neurospora crassa

The paper demonstrates a recombination-independent mechanism for DNA homology recognition in meiosis using Neurospora crassa, showing that homologous DNA pairs through specific sequence patterns and structural interactions.
