To Bind or not to Bind: Understanding how CooA Activates [PDF]
, 2018 CooA, a gas-sensing heme protein found in several organisms, binds to DNA in the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) to regulate important metabolic functions.

Mutagenic and Spectroscopic Investigation of pH Dependent CooA DNA Binding [PDF]
, 2017 The carbon monoxide (CO) sensing heme protein, CooA, is a transcription factor which exists in several bacteria that utilize CO as an energy source. CooA positively regulates the expression of coo genes in the presence of CO such that the corresponding ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Identifying the “stripe” transcription factors and cooperative binding related to DNA methylation
Communications BiologyDNA methylation plays a critical role in gene regulation by modulating the DNA binding of transcription factors (TFs). This study integrates TFs’ ChIP-seq profiles with WGBS profiles to investigate how DNA methylation affects protein interactions ...

Walking, hopping and jumping: a model of transcription factor dynamics on DNA [PDF]
, 2011 We present a model of how transcription factors scan DNA to find their specific binding sites. Following the classical work of Winter et al. (1981), our model assumes two modes of transcription factor dynamics.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Etoposide induces DNA damage, activating p53‐dependent apoptosis via caspase‐3/7, which cleaves PARP1. Dammarenediol II enhances this apoptotic pathway by suppressing O‐GlcNAc transferase activity, further decreasing O‐GlcNAcylation. The reduction in O‐GlcNAc levels boosts p53‐driven apoptosis and influences the Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling pathway ...
