Inhibition of Microprocessor Function during the Activation of the Type I Interferon Response.

Type I interferons (IFNs) are central components of the antiviral response. Most cell types respond to viral infections by secreting IFNs, but the mechanisms that regulate correct expression of these ...

Partial Disturbance of Microprocessor Function in Human Stem Cells Carrying a Heterozygous Mutation in the DGCR8 Gene.

Maturation of microRNAs (miRNAs) begins by the "Microprocessor" complex, containing the Drosha endonuclease and its partner protein, "DiGeorge Syndrome Critical Region 8" (DGCR8). Although the main ...

A novel microprocessor-intrinsic Physical Unclonable Function

Abstract: We present a novel Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) exploiting the variability existing in a microprocessor pipeline to uniquely identify the microprocessor chip. The PUF accepts a ...
