Evolution of DNA replication origin specification and gene silencing mechanisms

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Contrary to most eukaryotes that lack sequence-specific origins of replication, S. cerevisiae origins are defined by specific DNA sequence motifs. Here the authors reveal that multiple subunits of ORC, including Orc2 and Orc4, contribute to the sequence ...

Therapeutic strategies for MMAE‐resistant bladder cancer through DPP4 inhibition

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE)‐resistant bladder cancer (BC) cell lines by exposure to progressively increasing concentrations of MMAE in vitro. RNA sequencing showed DPP4 expression was increased in MMAE‐resistant BC cells. Both si‐DPP4 and the DPP4 inhibitor sitagliptin suppressed the viability of MMAE‐resistant BC cells.

Recurrent cancer‐associated ERBB4 mutations are transforming and confer resistance to targeted therapies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that the majority of the 18 analyzed recurrent cancer‐associated ERBB4 mutations are transforming. The most potent mutations are activating, co‐operate with other ERBB receptors, and are sensitive to pan‐ERBB inhibitors. Activating ERBB4 mutations also promote therapy resistance in EGFR‐mutant lung cancer.

The INO80 Complex Removes H2A.Z to Promote Presynaptic Filament Formation during Homologous Recombination

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
The INO80 complex (INO80-C) is an evolutionarily conserved nucleosome remodeler that acts in transcription, replication, and genome stability. It is required for resistance against genotoxic agents and is involved in the repair of DNA double-strand ...

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Role of the ubiquitin-selective CDC-48/UFD-1/NPL-4 chaperone in DNA replication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Faithful transmission of genomic information requires tight spatiotemporal regulation of DNA replication factors. Posttranslational modifications, such as ubiquitylation, constitute a fast and effective mechanism to control such complex protein function.

Crucial parameters for precise copy number variation detection in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded solid cancer samples

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that copy number variations (CNVs) can be reliably detected in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) solid cancer samples using ultra‐low‐pass whole‐genome sequencing, provided that key (pre)‐analytical parameters are optimized.

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of single circulating tumor cells in the follow‐up of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular 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.

PARP1, DIDO3, and DHX9 Proteins Mutually Interact in Mouse Fibroblasts, with Effects on DNA Replication Dynamics, Senescence, and Oncogenic Transformation

open access: yesCells
The regulated formation and resolution of R-loops is a natural process in physiological gene expression. Defects in R-loop metabolism can lead to DNA replication stress, which is associated with a variety of diseases and, ultimately, with cancer.

USP37 deubiquitinates Cdt1 and contributes to regulate DNA replication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2016
DNA replication control is a key process in maintaining genomic integrity. Monitoring DNA replication initiation is particularly important as it needs to be coordinated with other cellular events and should occur only once per cell cycle. Crucial players
