A molecule inducing androgen receptor degradation and selectively targeting prostate cancer cellsA new molecule induces AR sumoylation and degradation resulting in selective growth inhibition in AR-dependent prostate cancer cells, but its activity is blunted by interference with proteasomes.
KAP1 is an antiparallel dimer with a functional asymmetryThis study reveals the architecture of human KAP1 by integrating molecular modeling with small-angle X-ray scattering and single-molecule experiments. KAP1 dimers feature a structural asymmetry at the C-terminal domains that has functional implications for recruitment of HP1.
Targeted variant detection using unaligned RNA-Seq readsThis study introduces km, an approach leveraging k-mer decomposition to identify targeted mutations. It can detect single-base mutations, insertions and deletions, as well as fusions. An analysis of over 10,000 RNA-seq samples shows fast mutation detection via km.
MITOL deletion in the brain impairs mitochondrial structure and ER tethering leading to oxidative stressMITOL deletion in mouse brain impairs the morphology and ER tethering of mitochondria, resulting in enhanced oxidative stress. This study suggests a relationship between morphological abnormalities of mitochondria and developmental disorder.
Ncl1-mediated metabolic rewiring critical during metabolic stressAccumulation of cysteine induces translational defects and metabolic rewiring that are abrogated by leucine in a transfer RNA (tRNA) methyltransferase NCL1-dependent manner in yeast.
GRP78 regulates CD44v membrane homeostasis and cell spreading in tamoxifen-resistant breast cancerEndoplasmic reticulum chaperone protein GRP78 interacts with CD44v and regulates F-actin integrity, cell adhesion, and cell spreading in breast cancer cells. Targeting cell surface GRP78 by antibodies can reduce CD44v expression.
About Life Science Alliance
Life Science Alliance is a new international, open-access, editorially independent, and peer-reviewed journal launched by an alliance of three preeminent scientific organizations: EMBO, Rockefeller University, and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Life Science Alliance is committed to the rapid, fair, and transparent publication of research papers, resources, and new methods from the full spectrum of life science and biomedical research.
