From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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 ...

BRCT domains of the DNA damage checkpoint proteins TOPBP1/Rad4 display distinct specificities for phosphopeptide ligands

open access: yeseLife, 2018
TOPBP1 and its fission yeast homologue Rad4, are critical players in a range of DNA replication, repair and damage signalling processes. They are composed of multiple BRCT domains, some of which bind phosphorylated motifs in other proteins. They thus act

DNA Repair Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 1982
The invention relates to methods of selection of agents and compositions for the treatment of proliferative diseases such as cancer. More specifically, the present invention relates to the methods of selecting compounds which modulate the activity of DNA repair enzymes HAB1 and HAB2 and their uses in the treatment of disorders, which would benefit from

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

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

PolySUMOylation of PCNA and Rad52 restricts centromeric recombination in fission yeast

open access: yesNature Communications
SUMOylation, a conserved post-translational modification in eukaryotes, regulates protein function, localization, and stability. However, the role of SUMO chains in genome maintenance is still emerging.

Isolation of Stem Cells of the Degenerated Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Using a Low Cost and Very Effective Technique

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2014
Introduction The limitations of regenerative therapy of the tissue using stem cells are, among others, the length of time until a satisfactory amount of viable cells is obtained for the therapy and the high financial cost.

NCOA4 maintains murine erythropoiesis via cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms

open access: yesHaematologica, 2019
Ncoa4 mediates autophagic degradation of ferritin, the cytosolic iron storage complex, to maintain intracellular iron homeostasis. Recent evidence also supports a role for Ncoa4 in systemic iron homeostasis and erythropoiesis.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

TDP43 interacts with MLH1 and MSH6 proteins in a DNA damage-inducible manner

open access: yesMolecular Brain
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that affects the motor neuron. One aspect of the neuropathology involved in ALS includes increased genomic damage and impaired DNA repair capability. The TAR-DNA binding protein 43 (

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.
