Combined Targeting of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and Exportin 1 in Metastatic Breast Cancers. [PDF]
The majority of breast cancer specific deaths in women with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) tumors occur due to metastases that are resistant to therapy. There is a critical need for novel therapeutic approaches to achieve tumor regression and/or maintain therapy responsiveness in metastatic ER+ tumors. The objective of this study was to elucidate the

The evolution of core proteins involved in microRNA biogenesis
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a recently discovered class of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) which play important roles in eukaryotic gene regulation. miRNA biogenesis and activation is a complex process involving multiple protein catalysts and involves the

C646 degrades Exportin-1 to modulate p300 chromatin occupancy and function. [PDF]
Molecular glues can induce proximity between a target protein and ubiquitin ligases to induce target degradation, but strategies for their discovery remain limited. We screened 3,200 bioactive small molecules and identified that C646 requires neddylation-dependent protein degradation to induce cytotoxicity.

Preclinical antitumor efficacy of selective exportin 1 inhibitors in glioblastoma. [PDF]
Glioblastoma (GBM) is poorly responsive to current chemotherapy. The nuclear transporter exportin 1 (XPO1, CRM1) is often highly expressed in GBM, which may portend a poor prognosis. Here, we determine the efficacy of novel selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE) specific to XPO1 in preclinical models of GBM.Seven patient-derived GBM lines were ...

TFIIA transcriptional activity is controlled by a ‘cleave-and-run’ Exportin-1/Taspase 1-switch [PDF]
Transcription factor TFIIA is controlled by complex regulatory networks including proteolysis by the protease Taspase 1, though the full impact of cleavage remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that in contrast to the general assumption, de novo produced TFIIA is rapidly confined to the cytoplasm via an evolutionary conserved nuclear export signal (NES,

New insights into YAP/TAZ nucleo‐cytoplasmic shuttling: new cancer therapeutic opportunities?
Yes‐associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co‐activator with PDZ‐binding motif (TAZ), the main effectors of the Hippo pathway, are emerging as important players in cancer biology and therapy response.

Structural determinants of nuclear export signal orientation in binding to exportin CRM1
The Chromosome Region of Maintenance 1 (CRM1) protein mediates nuclear export of hundreds of proteins through recognition of their nuclear export signals (NESs), which are highly variable in sequence and structure.

Exportin 1 Mediates Nuclear Export of the Kinetoplastid Spliced Leader RNA [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe kinetoplastid protozoan spliced leader (SL) RNA is the common substrate pre-mRNA utilized in alltrans-splicing reactions. Here we show by fluorescence in situ hybridization that the SL RNA is present in the cytoplasm ofLeishmania tarentolaeandTrypanosoma brucei.
