MRE11 facilitates the removal of human topoisomerase II complexes from genomic DNA [PDF]
Topoisomerase II creates a double-strand break intermediate with topoisomerase covalently coupled to the DNA via a 5'-phosphotyrosyl bond. These intermediate complexes can become cytotoxic protein-DNA adducts and DSB repair at these lesions requires ...

The Adaptive Significance of Natural Genetic Variation in the DNA Damage Response of Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
Despite decades of work, our understanding of the distribution of fitness effects of segregating genetic variants in natural populations remains largely incomplete. One form of selection that can maintain genetic variation is spatially varying selection,

Compensatory metabolic networks in pancreatic cancers upon perturbation of glutamine metabolism
Glutaminase inhibition (GLSi) has promising activity against certain cancers. Here, the authors show that GLSi has no effect on multiple mouse models of pancreatic cancer and characterize the metabolic pathways activated in response to GLSi whose ...

NCOA4 maintains murine erythropoiesis via cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms
Ncoa4 mediates autophagic degradation of ferritin, the cytosolic iron storage complex, to maintain intracellular iron homeostasis. Recent evidence also supports a role for Ncoa4 in systemic iron homeostasis and erythropoiesis.

Oncogenic KRAS supports pancreatic cancer through regulation of nucleotide synthesis
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells display varying degrees of reliance on oncogenic KRAS. Here the authors show that KRAS-resistant PDAC cells maintain nucleotides synthesis through a KRAS-independent upregulation of the non-oxidative pentose ...

The Role of NCOA4-Mediated Ferritinophagy in Health and Disease
Nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) is a selective cargo receptor that mediates the autophagic degradation of ferritin (“ferritinophagy„), the cytosolic iron storage complex.
