Cisplatinum and Taxol Induce Different Patterns of p53 Phosphorylation
Posttranslational modifications of p53 induced by two widely used anticancer agents, cisplatinum (DDP) and taxol were investigated in two human cancer cell lines.

Pds5A and Pds5B Display Non-redundant Functions in Mitosis and Their Loss Triggers Chk1 Activation
BackgroundPds5 is an abundant HEAT-repeat-containing protein that binds to cohesin and mediates sister chromatid cohesion. In vertebrates, Pds5A and Pds5B are known to protect DNA replication fork, as their loss leads to DNA damage.

Cell cycle: Checkpoint proteins and kinetochores [PDF]
Vertebrate homologs of yeast spindle assembly checkpoint proteins are localized to kinetochores and may act as a sensor for proper chromosome attachment to the mitotic spindle.

Oncogenic mutations produce similar phenotypes in Drosophila tissues of diverse origins
An emerging interest in oncology is to tailor treatment to particular cancer genotypes, i.e. oncogenic mutations present in the tumor, and not the tissue of cancer incidence.

Mutations In RAD27 Define A Potential Link Between G₁ Cyclins And DNA Replication [PDF]
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has three G1 cyclin (CLN) genes with overlapping functions. To analyze the functions of the various CLN genes, we examined mutations that result in lethality in conjunction with loss of cln1 and cln2.

RAD6-RAD18-RAD5-pathway-dependent tolerance to chronic low-dose ultraviolet light [PDF]
In nature, organisms are exposed to chronic low- dose ultraviolet light ( CLUV) as opposed to the acute high doses common to laboratory experiments. Analysis of the cellular response to acute high-dose exposure has delineated the importance of direct DNA

Cell cycle checkpoint revolution: targeted therapies in the fight against malignant tumors
Malignant tumors are among the most important causes of death worldwide. The pathogenesis of a malignant tumor is complex and has not been fully elucidated. Studies have shown that such pathogenesis is related to abnormal cell cycle progression.

The histone methyltransferase EZH2 silences genes by generating H3K27me3 marks. Here the authors use a 3D GC organoid and show EZH2 mediates germinal centre (GC) formation through epigenetic silencing of CDKN1A and release of cell cycle checkpoints.

Bifurcation analysis of a model of the budding yeast cell cycle
We study the bifurcations of a set of nine nonlinear ordinary differential equations that describe the regulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase that triggers DNA synthesis and mitosis in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Non-Classical P38 Map Kinase Functions: Cell Cycle Checkpoints and Survival
The p38 MAPK kinase pathway is activated in response to a wide range of cellular stress stimuli and cytokines. Our understanding of the important functions of p38 MAPK in the process of differentiation and cell death has grown considerably in the recent ...
