A Transmembrane Protein WAI‐B2 Confers Multiple Disease Resistance in Wheat by Activating Autoimmunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Wheat production is under threat from multiple diseases. This study clones the wheat autoimmunity gene WAI‐B2 from an EMS‐induced mutant that encodes a distinct transmembrane protein conferring resistance to wheat rusts and powdery mildew ‐ two major diseases affecting wheat crops.

Erucic Acid, Derived by Lactobacillus Crispatus, Induces Ferroptosis in Cervical Cancer Organoids Through the PPAR‐δ Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Utilizing PDO, cell lines and cervical cancer xenograft (CDX) models, the study demonstrate both in vitro and in vivo that the metabolite of L. crispatus, erucic acid, can modulate the proliferation, migration and invasion of cervical cancer by activating the PPAR‐δ pathway.

Gene-Targeted Next Generation Sequencing Identifies PNPLA1 Mutations in Patients with a Phenotypic Spectrum of Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis: The Impact of Consanguinity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heritable forms of ichthyoses, also referred to as generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification, are phenotypically a highly heterogeneous group of conditions caused by mutations in a number of genes playing a role in keratinocyte differentiation ...

ZDHHC2‐Dependent Palmitoylation Dictates Ferroptosis and Castration Sensitivity in Prostate Cancer via Controlling ACSL4 Degradation and Lipid Peroxidation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals a novel mechanism by which palmitoylation regulates ferroptosis and enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer. Under enzalutamide resistance, the FOXA1/CXXC5/TET2 complex induces aberrant upregulation of ZDHHC2, which subsequently suppresses ferroptosis by mediating S‐palmitoylation of USP19 and degradation of ACSL4 protein in CRPC ...

Group I introns are widespread in archaea

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2018
Group I catalytic introns have been found in bacterial, viral, organellar, and some eukaryotic genomes, but not in archaea. All known archaeal introns are bulge-helix-bulge (BHB) introns, with the exception of a few group II introns. It has been proposed

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...

Genome‐Wide Protein Interaction Analysis in Parasitic Gyrodactylus Flatworms–Fish Hosts System and Drug Target Identification

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genomic data offer a powerful tool for studying the molecular interactions between parasites and their hosts, but they remain scarce for parasitic monogenean flatworms. This study presents the first high‐quality phased genome assembly for monogeneans (Gyrodactylus kobayashii), and uses it to predict key interacting proteins between monogenean parasite ‐

Structure of a Group II Intron Complexed with its Reverse Transcriptase

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2016
Bacterial group II introns are large catalytic RNAs related to nuclear spliceosomal introns and eukaryotic retrotransposons. They self-splice to yield mature RNA, and integrate into DNA as retroelements.

Structural basis for the second step of group II intron splicing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The group II intron and the spliceosome share a common active site architecture and are thought to be evolutionarily related. Here we report the 3.7 Å crystal structure of a eukaryotic group II intron in the lariat-3′ exon form, immediately preceding the
