DNA repair protein Rad18 restricts LINE-1 mobility

Priscilla Turelli

Long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1, L1) is a mobile genetic element comprising about 17% of the human genome. L1 utilizes an endonuclease to insert L1 cDNA into the target genomic DNA, which induces double-strand DNA breaks in the human genome and activat ...

A bi-terminal protein ligation strategy to probe chromatin structure during DNA damage

Beat Fierz, Sinan Kilic, Iuliia Boichenko, Carolin Christine Lechner

The cellular response to DNA damage results in a signaling cascade that primes chromatin for repair. Combinatorial post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in this process by altering the physical properties of chromatin and recruiting downs ...

Generation of Native, Untagged Huntingtin Exon1 Monomer and Fibrils Using a SUMO Fusion Strategy

Hilal Lashuel, Anass Chiki, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Andreas Reif

Huntington’s Disease (HD) is an inherited fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by a CAG expansion (36) in the first exon of the HD gene, resulting in the expression of the Huntingtin protein (Htt) or N-terminal fragments thereof with an expanded polygl ...

Cytosolic delivery and characterization of monobodies interfering with SH2 domain-phosphotyrosine interactions

Nadine Eliane Schmit

Targeted cancer therapy is a very promising concept; however, small molecule inhibitors only exist for a limited number of oncoproteins and resistance development limits their clinical use. Different engineered non-antibody scaffolds are being explored to ...

Parkin mediates the ubiquitination of VPS35 and modulates retromer-dependent endosomal sorting

Liliane Glauser, Elpida Tsika

Mutations in a number of genes cause familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD), including mutations in the vacuolar protein sorting 35 ortholog (VPS35) and parkin genes. In this study, we identify a novel functional interaction between parkin and VPS35. W ...

Biochemical and biophysical characterization of ruthenation of BRCA1 RING protein by RAPTA complexes and its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Laure Menin, Luc Patiny

RAPTA compounds, ([Ru(eta(6)-arene)(PTA)Cl-2], PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), have been reported to overcome drug resistance in cisplatin resistant cells. However, the exact mechanism of these complexes is still largely unexplored. In this study, ...

LRSAM1-mediated ubiquitylation is disrupted in axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 2P

Vincenzo Sorrentino

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease type 2 is a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited neuropathies characterized by motor and sensory deficits as a result of peripheral axonal degeneration. We recently reported a frameshift (FS) mutation in the Really ...

Disrupting Y-Box-Binding Protein 1 Function Using OSU-03012 Prevents Endometriosis Progression in In Vitro and In Vivo Models

The objective of the present study was to test the ability of OSU-03012 (2-amino-N-[4-[5-phenanthren-2-yl-3-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazol-1-yl]phenyl]acetamide), a novel and potent celecoxib-derivative, to impair endometriosis progression in in vitro and in viv ...

Heterochromatin protein 1 recruitment and chromatin conformational dynamics at the single-molecule level

Sinan Kilic

Chromatin is the template on which DNA-associated transactions take place in eukaryotic organisms. Nucleosomes consisting of the four histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 each organize ~150bp of DNA and constitute a first layer of chromatin. The three-dimensional ...

Phosphorylation of α-synuclein is crucial in compensating for proteasomal dysfunction

Hilal Lashuel

α-Synuclein can be degraded by both the ubiquitin-proteasomal system and the chaperone-lysosomal system. However, the switching mechanism between the two pathways is not clearly understood. In our study, we investigated the mutual association between the b ...
