A guide to transcriptional cyclin‐dependent kinases in cancer

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transcriptional cyclin‐dependent‐kinases (tCDKs) facilitate gene expression by promoting RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) progression through discrete phases of the transcription cycle. Aberrant tCDK activity is detectable in different human cancers, thereby contributing to de‐regulated gene expression programs that drive oncogenic phenotypes.

Plant polyadenylation factors: conservation and variety in the polyadenylation complex in plants

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Polyadenylation, an essential step in eukaryotic gene expression, requires both cis-elements and a plethora of trans-acting polyadenylation factors. The polyadenylation factors are largely conserved across mammals and fungi.

Gene therapy for hereditary deafness: Progress, challenges and translational implications from OTOF to GJB2

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
Current Management & Limitations: Traditional auditory devices lack genetic curative potential and yield variable, non‐physiological hearing outcomes. OTOF gene therapy has shown promising clinical outcomes with dual‐AAV therapy. GJB2 gene therapy remains an emerging approach with significant translational challenges. Advances in vector design and cell‐

Regulation and functions of alternative polyadenylation in fungi

Mycology
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) has been implicated in regulating transcriptome diversity and gene expression by significantly altering mRNA abundance, stability, localisation, and translation. Understanding the comprehensive landscape of APA can provide valuable insights into the complexity of gene regulation.

Lactate metabolism and protein lactylation in programmed cell death: From novel mechanism to therapeutic strategies in human diseases

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This review highlights protein lactylation as a metabolic‐epigenetic regulator linking lactate reprogramming to programmed cell death. By modulating histone and non‐histone targets, lactylation reshapes cell fate decisions and represents a promising biomarker and therapeutic target in human diseases.

Impaired Motor Function in a Zebrafish Stathmin‐2 Knockout Model

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Stathmin‐2 (STMN2) is a microtubule‐associated protein that plays a role in the stability of microtubules in axons of the nervous system of animals. In this study, we generated a novel zebrafish STMN2 knockout (KO) model. STMN2 is represented by two genes in the zebrafish genome: stmn2a and stmn2b.

The role of alternative polyadenylation in breast cancer

Frontiers in Genetics
Breast cancer (BC), as a highly prevalent malignant tumor worldwide, is still unclear in its pathogenesis and has poor therapeutic outcomes. Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism widely found in eukaryotes. Precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) undergoes the APA process to generate multiple mRNA isoforms with different ...

Interrogating the Escherichia coli Epitranscriptome Via CRISPR Interference and Nanopore Native RNA Sequencing

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Epitranscriptomics is understudied in bacteria but has the ability to modulate antimicrobial resistance, virulence and pathogenicity. Pitt et al. implement two cutting‐edge techniques: CRISPR interference and Nanopore direct RNA sequencing along with functional assays to study RNA modifications in Escherichia coli.

High-Resolution RNA Maps Suggest Common Principles of Splicing and Polyadenylation Regulation by TDP-43

Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Many RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) regulate both alternative exons and poly(A) site selection. To understand their regulatory principles, we developed expressRNA, a web platform encompassing computational tools for integration of iCLIP and RNA ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2579-2614, September 2026.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
