Proximity labeling identifies a repertoire of site-specific R-loop modulators
Nature Communications, 2022 R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures that contribute to genome instability and accumulate in neurological diseases. Here the authors identify R-loop proximal factors, which are enriched for zinc finger and homeodomain proteins, including ...

Comparative analysis of gene regulation by the transcription factor PPARalpha between mouse and human [PDF]
, 2009 Studies in mice have shown that PPARalpha is an important regulator of hepatic lipid metabolism and the acute phase response. However, little information is available on the role of PPARalpha in human liver.

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

Gene Regulation and Speciation [PDF]
Trends in Genetics, 2017 Understanding the genetic architecture of speciation is a major goal in evolutionary biology. Hybrid dysfunction is thought to arise most commonly through negative interactions between alleles at two or more loci. Divergence between interacting regulatory elements that affect gene expression (i.e., regulatory divergence) may be a common route for these

Mechanical determinants of chromatin topology and gene expression
Nucleus, 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.

Nanoplasmonic gene regulation [PDF]
Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2010 This review focuses on the recent developments in nanoplasmonic gene regulations. Types of nanoplasmonic carriers and DNA/RNA cargo are described. Strategies to liberate cargo from their carriers using NIR and enable on-demand silencing of endogenous intracellular genes are reviewed.

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

Regulation of the Erythropoietin Gene [PDF]
Blood, 1999 Erythropoietin (Epo), the hormone that stimulates red blood cell production, is induced by hypoxia. We have utilized the human hepatoma cell line, Hep3B, to investigate the regulation of the Epo gene. We present evidence that the oxygen sensor in Hep3B cells is a heme protein.

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