  text: "<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>\r\n               <jats:p>RNA editing processes
    are strikingly different in animals and plants. Up to thousands of specific cytidines
    are converted into uridines in plant chloroplasts and mitochondria whereas up
    to millions of adenosines are converted into inosines in animal nucleo-cytosolic
    RNAs. It is unknown whether these two different RNA editing machineries are mutually
    incompatible. RNA-binding pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins are the key
    factors of plant organelle cytidine-to-uridine RNA editing. The complete absence
    of PPR mediated editing of cytosolic RNAs might be due to a yet unknown barrier
    that prevents its activity in the cytosol. Here, we transferred two plant mitochondrial
    PPR-type editing factors into human cell lines to explore whether they could operate
    in the nucleo-cytosolic environment. PPR56 and PPR65 not only faithfully edited
    their native, co-transcribed targets but also different sets of off-targets in
    the human background transcriptome. More than 900 of such off-targets with editing
    efficiencies up to 91%, largely explained by known PPR-RNA binding properties,
    were identified for PPR56. Engineering two crucial amino acid positions in its
    PPR array led to predictable shifts in target recognition. We conclude that plant
    PPR editing factors can operate in the entirely different genetic environment
    of the human nucleo-cytosol and can be intentionally re-engineered towards new
    targets.</jats:p>"

  text: "<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>\r\n               <jats:p>Doxorubicin (DOX)
    is a common drug in cancer chemotherapy, and its high DNA-binding affinity can
    be harnessed in preparing DOX-loaded DNA nanostructures for targeted delivery
    and therapeutics. Although DOX has been widely studied, the existing literature
    of DOX-loaded DNA-carriers remains limited and incoherent. Here, based on an in-depth
    spectroscopic analysis, we characterize and optimize the DOX loading into different
    2D and 3D scaffolded DNA origami nanostructures (DONs). In our experimental conditions,
    all DONs show similar DOX binding capacities (one DOX molecule per two to three
    base pairs), and the binding equilibrium is reached within seconds, remarkably
    faster than previously acknowledged. To characterize drug release profiles, DON
    degradation and DOX release from the complexes upon DNase I digestion was studied.
    For the employed DONs, the relative doses (DOX molecules released per unit time)
    may vary by two orders of magnitude depending on the DON superstructure. In addition,
    we identify DOX aggregation mechanisms and spectral changes linked to pH, magnesium,
    and DOX concentration. These features have been largely ignored in experimenting
    with DNA nanostructures, but are probably the major sources of the incoherence
    of the experimental results so far. Therefore, we believe this work can act as
    a guide to tailoring the release profiles and developing better drug delivery
    systems based on DNA-carriers.</jats:p>"
