Btk SH2-kinase interface is critical for allosteric kinase activation and its targeting inhibits B-cell neoplasms

Florence Pojer, Matteo Dal Peraro, Oliver Hantschel, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Allan Joaquim Lamontanara, Tim Kükenshöner, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Daniel Pereira Duarte, Grégory La Sala

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is critical for B-cell maturation and activation. Btk loss-of-function mutations cause human X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). In contrast, Btk signaling sustains growth of several B-cell neoplasms which may be treated with ...

Mechanistic insights into AMP-activated protein kinase-dependent gene expression

Caterina Collodet

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a fundamental enzyme that controls energy homeostasis, through orchestrating the cellular response to a reduction in energy availability. Under conditions of cellular energy stress AMPK senses the decrease in ATP leve ...

HIV-1 Vpu is a potent transcriptional suppressor of NF-κB-elicited antiviral immune responses

Jacques Fellay, Christian Hammer, Daniel Sauter

Many viral pathogens target innate sensing cascades and/or cellular transcription factors to suppress antiviral immune responses. Here, we show that the accessory viral protein U (Vpu) of HIV-1 exerts broad immunosuppressive effects by inhibiting activatio ...

Quantitative relationships between SMAD dynamics and target gene activation kinetics in single live cells

Felix Naef, Onur Tidin, David Michael Suter, Torgil Elias Friman

The transduction of extracellular signals through signaling pathways that culminate in a transcriptional response is central to many biological processes. However, quantitative relationships between activities of signaling pathway components and transcript ...

Beyond silence : a functional and evolutionary study of KRAB zinc finger proteins

Pierre-Yves Joseph Laurent Helleboid

Transposable elements (TEs) are genetic units capable of spreading within the genomes of their host. TEs contribute a readily recognizable 45% of the human DNA, reflecting in part their co-option for some as source of protein-coding sequences, for others a ...

Proteasomal and lysosomal clearance of faulty secretory proteins: ER-associated degradation (ERAD) and ER-to-lysosome-associated degradation (ERLAD) pathways

Maurizio Molinari

About 40% of the eukaryotic cell's proteins are inserted co- or post-translationally in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where they attain the native structure under the assistance of resident molecular chaperones and folding enzymes. Subsequently, these pr ...

Single-molecule dynamics and genome-wide transcriptomics reveal that NF-kB (p65)-DNA binding times can be decoupled from transcriptional activation

Suliana Manley, Aleksandr Benke, Beat Fierz, Andrea Callegari, David Michael Suter, Christian Sieben

Transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes by recognizing and binding to specific DNA promoter sequences. In higher eukaryotes, it remains unclear how the duration of TF binding to DNA relates to downstream tran ...

Hominoid-Specific Transposable Elements and KZFPs Facilitate Human Embryonic Genome Activation and Control Transcription in Naive Human ESCs

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Julien Léonard Duc, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Julien Duc, Alexandre Coudray, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Julien Paul André Pontis

Expansion of transposable elements (TEs) coincides with evolutionary shifts in gene expression. TEs frequently harbor binding sites for transcriptional regulators, thus enabling coordinated genome-wide activation of species- and context-specific gene expre ...

Mitotic chromosome binding predicts transcription factor properties in interphase

Mahé Cécile Raccaud

Mammalian transcription factors (TFs) differ broadly in their nuclear mobility and sequence-specific/non-specific DNA binding affinity. How these properties affect the ability of TFs to occupy their specific binding sites in the genome and modify the epige ...
