Understanding the role of chromatin remodeling in the regulation of circadian transcription in Drosophila. [PDF]
Circadian clocks enable organisms to anticipate daily changes in the environment and coordinate temporal rhythms in physiology and behavior with the 24-h day-night cycle. The robust cycling of circadian gene expression is critical for proper timekeeping,

Interleukin-6 Is a Needed Proinflammatory Cytokine in the Prolonged Neural Activity and Transcriptional Activation of Corticotropin-Releasing Factor during Endotoxemia1 [PDF]
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays multiple roles in the central nervous system during infections and injuries. Although this molecule is capable of stimulating the release of ACTH and glucocorticoids, it has been demonstrated that a single injection of IL-6 fails to activate the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) neurons that ...

The anabolic steroid stanozolol is a potent inhibitor of human MutT homolog 1
MutT homolog 1 (MTH1) is a member of the NUDIX superfamily of enzymes and is an anticancer drug target. We show that stanozolol (Stz), an anabolic steroid, is an unexpected nanomolar inhibitor of MTH1. The X‐ray crystal structure of the human MTH1–Stz complex reveals a unique binding scaffold that could be utilized for future inhibitor development ...

The Nuclear Factor-κB Engages CBP/p300 and Histone Acetyltransferase Activity for Transcriptional Activation of the Interleukin-6 Gene Promoter [PDF]
Expression of the pleiotropic cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 can be stimulated by the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and the microbial alkaloid staurosporine (STS). In this report, the transcriptional mechanisms were thoroughly investigated.

ATF3 upregulation in glia during Wallerian degeneration: differential expression in peripheral nerves and CNS white matter [PDF]
Background: Many changes in gene expression occur in distal stumps of injured nerves but the transcriptional control of these events is poorly understood.

This work presents the characterization of MvoDUF2193, a Methanococcus voltae (Mvo) protein from the domain of unknown function (DUF) 2193 family. We demonstrate that MvoDUF2193 binds a single [4Fe–4S] cluster per subunit and that cluster occupancy regulates the transition from an apo tetramer to a [4Fe–4S] monomeric form. This structural transition is
