Gene regulation in transition [PDF]
Nature, 2016 An in-depth analysis of a close relative of animals, Capsaspora owczarzaki, provides clues to the changes in gene regulation that occurred during the transition to multicellularity.

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...

A role for p53 in telomere protection
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017 Telomeres cap the ends of chromosomes and are crucial for genome stability. The p53 protein (TP53) is a vital tumor suppressor, activating the transcription of numerous genes in response to cell stress.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LHCPs are transported to the thylakoid membrane via the (cp)SRP pathway. This process involves a transit complex of (cp)SRP43, (cp)SRP54 and LHCP, which interacts with (cp)FtsY and Alb3 at the membrane. GTP hydrolysis by (cp)SRP54 and (cp)FtsY triggers complex dissociation.

A lncRNA-SWI/SNF complex crosstalk controls transcriptional activation at specific promoter regions
Nature Communications, 2020 SWI/SNF complexes regulate chromatin architecture and gene expression. Here the authors report the RNA interactome of SMARCB1-containing SWI/SNF complexes, showing the function of SMARCB1-interacting long noncoding RNA SWINGN in transcriptional ...

Non-equilibrium dynamics of gene expression and the Jarzynski equality [PDF]
, 2007 In order to express specific genes at the right time, the transcription of genes is regulated by the presence and absence of transcription factor molecules. With transcription factor concentrations undergoing constant changes, gene transcription takes place out of equilibrium.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

Geometric Characteristics of Dynamic Correlations for Combinatorial Regulation in Gene Expression Noise [PDF]
, 2009 Knowing which mode of combinatorial regulation (typically, AND or OR logic operation) that a gene employs is important for determining its function in regulatory networks. Here, we introduce a dynamic cross-correlation function between the output of a gene and its upstream regulator concentrations for signatures of combinatorial regulation in gene ...

Gene editing and gene regulation with CRISPR [PDF]
Experimental Physiology, 2018 Genome editing enables precise changes to be made in the genome of living cells. The technique was originally developed in the 1980’s but largely limited to use in mice. The discovery that a targeted double stranded break (DSB) at a unique site in the genome, close to the site to be changed, could substantially increase the efficiency of editing ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...
