A boundary-defining protein facilitates megabase-scale regulatory chromosomal loop formation in Drosophila neurons

Regulatory elements, such as enhancers and silencers, control transcription by establishing physical proximity to target gene promoters. Neurons in flies and mammals exhibit long-range three-dimensional genome contacts, proposed to connect genes with dista ...

Genome-wide allele-specific expression in multi-tissue samples from healthy male baboons reveals the transcriptional complexity of mammals

Giorgia Benegiamo

Allele-specific expression (ASE) is pivotal in understanding the genetic underpinnings of phenotypic variation within species, differences in disease susceptibility, and responses to environmental factors. We processed 11 different tissue types collected f ...

Bulk measurement of membrane permeability for random cyclic peptides in living cells to guide drug development

Nathan Moïse De Sadeleer, Christian Heinis, Alexander Lund Nielsen, Anne Sofie Luise Zarda, Rebecca Manuela Neeser

Cyclic peptides are attractive for drug discovery due to their excellent binding properties and the potential to cross cell membranes. However, by far not all cyclic peptides are cell permeable, and measuring or predicting their membrane permeability is no ...

Formaldehyde regulates one-carbon metabolism and epigenetics

Yimon Aye

Recently, Pham et al. used an array of model systems to uncover a role for the enzyme methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) -1A, which is mainly expressed in liver, in both sensing formaldehyde and regulating transcriptional responses that protect against i ...

Antibodies expand the scope of angiotensin receptor pharmacology

Shuhao Zhang, Patrick Daniel Barth

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are key regulators of human physiology and are the targets of many small-molecule research compounds and therapeutic drugs. While most of these ligands bind to their target GPCR with high affinity, selectivity is often l ...

Ancestral genome reconstruction enhances transposable element annotation by identifying degenerate integrants

Wayo Matsushima, Didier Trono, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert

Growing evidence indicates that transposable elements (TEs) play important roles in evolution by providing genomes with coding and non-coding sequences. Identification of TE-derived functional elements, however, has relied on TE annotations in individual s ...

Primary data for "A role for the carbon source of the cell and protein kinase A in regulating the S. pombe septation initiation network"

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Bastien Mangeat, Özge Uysal Özdemir

The Septation Initiation Network (SIN) is a conserved signal transduction network, which is important for cytokinesis in S. pombe. The SIN component Etd1p is required for association of some SIN proteins with the spindle pole body (SPB) during anaphase and ...

A role for the carbon source of the cell and protein kinase A in regulating the S. pombe septation initiation network

Viesturs Simanis, Andrea Krapp, Bastien Mangeat, Özge Uysal Özdemir

The septation initiation network (SIN) is a conserved signal transduction network, which is important for cytokinesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The SIN component Etd1p is required for association of some SIN proteins with the spindle pole body (SPB) du ...

The autism susceptibility kinase, TAOK2, phosphorylates eEF2 and modulates translation

Nagammal Neelagandan

Genes implicated in translation control have been associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). However, some important genetic causes of autism, including the 16p11.2 microdeletion, bear no obvious connection to translation. Here, we use proteomics, g ...

Overexpression of human alpha-Synuclein leads to dysregulated microbiome/metabolites with ageing in a rat model of Parkinson disease

Joan Romani Aumedes, Hilal Lashuel, Yogesh Singh Chauhan, Florian Lang

Background Braak's hypothesis states that sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD) follows a specific progression of pathology from the peripheral to the central nervous system, and this progression can be monitored by detecting the accumulation of alpha-Synuclei ...

Rules and mechanisms governing G protein coupling selectivity of GPCRs

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Pablo Gainza Cirauqui

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) convert extracellular stimuli into intracellular signaling by coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins of four classes: Gi/o, Gq, Gs, and G12/13. However, our understanding of the G protein selectivity of GPCRs is incomplet ...

Deciphering the molecular events leading to the global restoration of the chromatin landscape during mitotic exit

Silja Michelle Placzek

Two fundamental properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are their ability to self-renew and differentiate into all somatic cell types. Maintenance of their identity faces major challenges when transitioning through mitosis, as most DNA-binding proteins a ...

SARS-CoV-2 hijacks a cell damage response, which induces transcription of a more efficient Spike S-acyltransferase

Didier Trono, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Béatrice Kunz, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento Ribeiro De Mesquita, Lucie Josepha Marie Bracq, Audrey Geneviève Chuat, Nattawadee Panyain

SARS-CoV-2 infection requires Spike protein-mediated fusion between the viral and cellular membranes. The fusogenic activity of Spike depends on its post-translational lipid modification by host S-acyltransferases, predominantly ZDHHC20. Previous observati ...

Chromatin modules and their implication in genomic organization and gene regulation

Judith Franziska Kribelbauer, Bart Deplancke, Guido Van Mierlo

Regulation of gene expression is a complex but highly guided process. While genomic technologies and computational approaches have allowed high-throughput mapping of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) and their interactions in 3D, their precise role in regulat ...

The THO complex counteracts TERRA R-loop-mediated telomere fragility in telomerase(+) cells and telomeric recombination in ALT(+) cells

Joachim Lingner, Rita Valador Fernandes

Telomeres are the nucleoprotein structures at the ends of linear chromosomes. Telomeres are transcribed into long non-coding Telomeric Repeat-Containing RNA (TERRA), whose functions rely on its ability to associate with telomeric chromatin. The conserved T ...
