O‐glycosylation in viruses: A sweet tango
O‐glycosylation is an ancient yet underappreciated protein posttranslational modification, on which many bacteria and viruses heavily rely to perform critical biological functions involved in numerous infectious diseases or even cancer.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

The RecQ4 protein shows homology to both the S.cerevisiae DNA replication protein Sld2 and the DNA repair related RecQ helicases. Experimental data also suggest replication and repair functions for RecQ4, but the precise details of its involvement remain

Nuclear translocation of Cyclin B1 marks the restriction point for terminal cell cycle exit in G2 phase [PDF]
Upon DNA damage, cell cycle progression is temporally blocked to avoid propagation of mutations. While transformed cells largely maintain the competence to recover from a cell cycle arrest, untransformed cells past the G1/S transition lose mitotic ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Human checkpoint proteins hRad9, hHus1, and hRad1 form a DNA damage-responsive complex [PDF]
Human cells have evolved protective mechanisms such as DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoints in order to promote stability of the genome. Studies on hereditary instability syndromes associated with a higher incidence of malignancies like Xeroderma ...

Chromatin Modifications Involved in the DNA Damage Response to Double Strand Breaks
In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is tightly compacted into a protein-DNA complex known as chromatin. This dense structure presents a barrier to DNA-dependent processes including transcription, replication and DNA repair.

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.
