Structure of the Complete RNA Polymerase II Elongation Complex and its Interaction with the Elongation Factor TFIIS

, 2005
This thesis describes crystal structures of complete, 12-subunit yeast RNA polymerase II (Pol II) in complex with a synthetic transcription bubble and product RNA, with an NTP substrate analogue, and in complex with the transcription elongation factor ...

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

Free Fatty Acids Induce Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Mediated Apoptosis of Macrophages in Dairy Cows with Ketosis

Animals
Dairy cows with ketosis display immune dysfunction and a high incidence of infectious diseases, which may partly be attributed to excessive endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and apoptosis in macrophages.

Analysis of the C/EBP family of transcription factors in neuronal repair

, 2009
PhDNeurons within the peripheral nervous system (PNS) have a remarkable ability to repair themselves after injury; however, neurons within the central nervous system (CNS) do not spontaneously regenerate.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Identification of Novel Genes and Pathways Regulating SREBP Transcriptional Activity.

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Lipid metabolism in mammals is orchestrated by a family of transcription factors called sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) that control the expression of genes required for the uptake and synthesis of cholesterol, fatty acids,

Heterozygous loss‐of‐function alleles associate the conserved 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease EXOSC10 with hypersensitivity to the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair and its regulation by the DNA damage checkpoint

, 2009
Elaborate DNA repair mechanisms have evolved, allowing cells to repair damages in their genomes. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes a variety of helix-distorting lesions, including those caused by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation.

Cell‐cycle‐specific lesion evolution rather than inhibition of double‐strand‐break repair underpins cisplatin radiosensitization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We analyze cisplatin–DNA adducts (CDAs) and double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell‐cycle‐dependent manner. We find that CDAs form similarly across all cell cycle phases. DSBs arise only in S‐phase. CDAs might not directly impair DSB repair, but S‐phase DSB lesions evolve in the presence of CDAs and disrupt repair in G2, also causing radiosensitization ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
