GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Threonine 348 regulates the subcellular localization of PTEN

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Thr348 in the C2 domain is a key contributor to PTEN subcellular localization. The PTEN350 fragment and PTENA4 accumulated in the nucleus, whereas PTENK13R,A4 predominantly localized to the plasma membrane. In contrast, substitution of Thr348 with Asp (T348D) disrupted these characteristic localization patterns, resulting in predominant cytoplasmic ...

Wnt gene loss in flatworms

Development Genes and Evolution, 2011
Wnt genes encode secreted glycoproteins that act in cell-cell signalling to regulate a wide array of developmental processes, ranging from cellular differentiation to axial patterning. Discovery that canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling is responsible for regulating head/tail specification in planarian regeneration has recently highlighted their ...

Gene loss and gain in the evolution of the vertebrates

Development, 1994
ABSTRACT Homeobox cluster genes (Hox genes) are highly conserved and can be usefully employed to study phyletic relation ships and the process of evolution itself. A phylogenetic survey of Hox genes shows an increase in gene number in some more recently evolved forms, particularly in verte brates. The gene increase has occurred through a

Modifier genes of hereditary hearing loss

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2000
Phenotypic variation between individuals with the same disease alleles may be attributable to the genotype at another locus, which is referred to as a modifier gene. Recent functional studies of modifier genes of hearing-loss loci have begun to refine our understanding of hearing processes and will guide the rational design of medical therapies for ...

Genes and syndromic hearing loss

Journal of Communication Disorders, 2002
Syndromes that are associated with hearing loss include Waardenburg, Stickler (STL), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen, Usher (USH), Alport, mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes, and sensorineural hearing loss (MELAS) and mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, myoclonus epilepsy, ragged-red fibers, and sensorineural hearing loss ...

Reconstructing Gene Gains and Losses with BadiRate

2022
Estimating gene gain and losses is paramount to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying adaptive evolution. Despite the advent of high-throughput sequencing, such analyses have been so far hampered by the poor contiguity of genome assemblies.
