Post-transcriptional regulation of DEAD-box RNA helicases in hematopoietic malignancies

open access: yesGenes and Diseases
Hematopoiesis represents a meticulously regulated and dynamic biological process. Genetic aberrations affecting blood cells, induced by various factors, frequently give rise to hematological tumors. These instances are often accompanied by a multitude of

The DEAD Box Helicase YxiN Maintains a Closed Conformation during ATP Hydrolysis

open access: yes, 2016
DEAD box helicases unwind RNA duplexes at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. Recently, unwinding has been demonstrated in the absence of ATP hydrolysis.

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to

Germline DDX41 mutations in myeloid neoplasms: a comprehensive review [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Internal Medicine
DEAD-box helicase 41 (DDX41)-associated myeloid neoplasms represent a distinct hereditary cancer syndrome and have emerged as the most common form of genetic predisposition to adult-onset hematologic malignancies, accounting for 3–5% of adults with ...

The Thermus thermophilus DEAD box helicase Hera contains a modified RNA recognition motif domain loosely connected to the helicase core

open access: yes, 2009
DEAD box family helicases consist of a helicase core that is formed by two flexibly linked RecA-like domains. The helicase activity can be regulated by N- or C-terminal extensions flanking the core.

The RNA helicase Rm62 cooperates with SU(VAR)3-9 to re-silence active transcription in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Gene expression is highly dynamic and many genes show a wide range in expression over several orders of magnitude. This regulation is often mediated by sequence specific transcription factors.

LPCAT3 as a Potential Drug Target for Ultraviolet Radiation–Induced Cataract: Insights From Multiomics Analysis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a major risk factor for cataract development, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process, particularly the involvement of regulated cell death pathways such as ferroptosis, remain unclear. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses were performed on lens tissues from UVB‐induced cataract rat ...

RNA Catalysis as a Probe for Chaperone Activity of DEAD-Box Helicases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
DEAD-box proteins are vitally important to cellular processes and make up the largest class of helicases. Many DEAD-box proteins function as RNA chaperones by accelerating structural transitions of RNA, which can result in the resolution of misfolded conformers or conversion between functional structures.

Monomeric PcrA helicase processively unwinds plasmid lengths of DNA in the presence of the initiator protein RepD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The helicase PcrA unwinds DNA during asymmetric replication of plasmids, acting with an initiator protein, in our case RepD. Detailed kinetics of PcrA activity were measured using bulk solution and a single-molecule imaging technique to investigate the ...

Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.
