Protocol: A Multiplexed Reporter Assay to Study Effects of Chromatin Context on DNA Double-Strand Break Repair

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) can be repaired through various pathways. Understanding how these pathways are regulated is of great interest for cancer research and optimization of gene editing.

Nucleus and gene regulation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2006
At the close of a 1973 meeting on Chromosome Structure and Function, an observer commented that chromosomes resembled “a bad day at a macaroni factory” [1]. But things change. Only a few months later nucleosomes were discovered and within just a few more years it began to be appreciated that the nucleus is organized as functionally distinct domains ...

Gene Regulation and Cellular Metabolism: An Essential Partnership

open access: yesTrends in Genetics, 2020
It is recognized that cell metabolism is tightly connected to other cellular processes such as regulation of gene expression. Metabolic pathways not only provide the precursor molecules necessary for gene expression, but they also provide ATP, the ...

PLK1 Signaling in Breast Cancer Cells Cooperates with Estrogen Receptor-Dependent Gene Transcription

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a key regulator of cell division and is overexpressed in many types of human cancers. Compared to its well-characterized role in mitosis, little is known about PLK1 functions in interphase.

Mechanical determinants of chromatin topology and gene expression

open access: yesNucleus, 2022
The compaction of linear DNA into micrometer-sized nuclear boundaries involves the establishment of specific three-dimensional (3D) DNA structures complexed with histone proteins that form chromatin.

Gene Regulation in and out of Equilibrium.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biophysics, 2020
Determining whether and how a gene is transcribed are two of the central processes of life. The conceptual basis for understanding such gene regulation arose from pioneering biophysical studies in eubacteria.

Metabolic regulation of gene expression by histone lactylation

open access: yesNature, 2019
The Warburg effect, which originally described increased production of lactate in cancer, is associated with diverse cellular processes such as angiogenesis, hypoxia, polarization of macrophages and activation of T cells.

SWI/SNF catalytic subunits’ switch drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ARID1A-mutated cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The mechanism of resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in cancers with inactivating SWI/SNF mutations is unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate that the switch of the SWI/SNF catalytic subunits from SMARCA4 to SMARCA2 drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ...

TNF-alpha inhibition ameliorates HDV-induced liver damage in a mouse model of acute severe infection

open access: yesJHEP Reports, 2020
Background & Aims: HDV infection induces the most severe form of human viral hepatitis. However, the specific reasons for the severity of the disease remain unknown.

The human lncRNA LINC-PINT inhibits tumor cell invasion through a highly conserved sequence element

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2017
Background It is now obvious that the majority of cellular transcripts do not code for proteins, and a significant subset of them are long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs).
