A Database for TSSs of Human MicroRNAs [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogeneous non-coding RNAs of about 22nt length. These short RNAs regulate the expression of mRNAs by hybridizing with their 3'-UTRs or by translational repression.

Pharmacological treatment with inhibitors of nuclear export enhances the antitumor activity of docetaxel in human prostate cancer [PDF]
Background and aims: Docetaxel (DTX) modestly increases patient survival of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) due to insurgence of pharmacological resistance. Deregulation of Chromosome Region Maintenance (CRM-1)/ exportin-1 (XPO-1)-

Nuclear DDX3 expression predicts poor outcome in colorectal and breast cancer [PDF]
Purpose: DEAD box protein 3 (DDX3) is an RNA helicase with oncogenic properties that shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus. The majority of DDX3 is found in the cytoplasm, but a subset of tumors has distinct nuclear DDX3 localization of yet unknown ...

An agent-based model for mRNA export through the nuclear pore complex. [PDF]
mRNA export from the nucleus is an essential step in the expression of every protein- coding gene in eukaryotes, but many aspects of this process remain poorly understood.

Importin-beta and CRM1 control a RANBP2 spatiotemporal switch essential for mitotic kinetochore function [PDF]
Protein conjugation with small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a post-translational modification that modulates protein interactions and localisation.

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.

Targeting nuclear transporters in cancer: Diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic potential [PDF]
The Karyopherin superfamily is a major class of soluble transport receptors consisting of both import and export proteins. The trafficking of proteins involved in transcription, cell signalling and cell cycle regulation among other functions across the ...

An introspective update on the influence of miRNAs in breast carcinoma and neuroblastoma chemoresistance [PDF]
Chemoresistance to conventional cytotoxic drugsmay occur in any type of cancer and this can either be inherent or develop through time. Studies have linked this acquired resistance to the abnormal expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) that normally silence ...

The Nefarious Nexus of Noncoding RNAs in Cancer [PDF]
The past decade has witnessed enormous progress, which has seen the noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) turn from the so called dark matter RNA to critical functional molecules, influencing most physiological processes in development and disease contexts.

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.
