Transcriptional repression by FACT is linked to regulation of chromatin accessibility at the promoter of ES cellsDepletion of FACT in murine embryonic stem cells show mild changes on the nucleosomal landscape but widespread changes in the transcriptome, faster proliferation, and neuronal differentiation rates.
Disruption of stromal hedgehog signaling initiates RNF5-mediated proteasomal degradation of PTEN and accelerates pancreatic tumor growthDisrupting paracrine Hedgehog signaling in pancreatic cancer stroma through genetic deletion of fibroblast Smoothened leads to proteasomal degradation of fibroblast PTEN and accelerates tumor growth.
Dimerization and auto-processing induce caspase-11 protease activation within the non-canonical inflammasomeThis study provides a detailed molecular mechanism for caspase-11 activation within the non-canonical inflammasome, giving new insight into host defence against cytosolic bacterial infection.
The huntingtin inclusion is a dynamic phase-separated compartmentWhen expressed in yeast, mutant Htt-GFP forms an inclusion that is mobile, gel-like, and releases material; evidence suggests that it grows through collision and coalescence with small aggregates.
A junction coverage compatibility score to quantify the reliability of transcript abundance estimates and annotation catalogsComparison of observed exon–exon junction counts to those predicted from estimated transcript abundances can identify genes with misannotated or misquantified transcripts.
Absence of MHC-II expression by lymph node stromal cells results in autoimmunityMHCII-restricted antigen presentation by lymph node stromal cells is essential for regulatory T-cell proliferation and functions, and for the regulation of autoimmunity.
The expansion in lymphoid organs of IL-4+ BATF+ T follicular helper cells is linked to IgG4 class switching in vivoT follicular helper cells that secrete IL-4 accumulate in lymphoid organs in IgG4-related disease and are linked to IgG4 class switching.
Rab1b and ARF5 are novel RNA-binding proteins involved in FMDV IRES–driven RNA localizationIntegration of proteomic data with functional and imaging analysis revealed that Rab1b and ARF5, two ER-Golgi members, are RNA-binding proteins that colocalize with picornavirus IRES-RNA reporters in human cells.
An integrative machine learning approach for prediction of toxicity-related drug safetyThis method allows the prediction of toxicity-related drug clinical trial failures, withdrawals from the market, and idiosyncratic toxicity risk by combining biological network analysis with machine learning.
Peroxisome biogenesis deficiency attenuates the BDNF-TrkB pathway-mediated development of the cerebellumPeroxisome biogenesis deficiency leads to increased expression of BDNF and of a truncated form of the BDNF receptor in the cerebellum, attenuates BDNF-TrkB signaling, and results in malformation of the cerebellum.
