Gigaxonin Potentiates Antiviral Innate Immune Responses by Targeting cGAS and TREX1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TREX1 antagonizes DNA sensor cGAS by degrading cytosolic DNA. This work identifies gigaxonin as a molecular switch that coordinates DNA sensing and clearance pathways to amplify antiviral responses. Under the steady state, gigaxonin maintains cellular homeostasis by mediating TREX1 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. During DNA virus infection,

Crystal structure of NRAS Q61K with a ligand-induced pocket near switch II

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology
The RAS isoforms (KRAS, HRAS and NRAS) have distinct cancer type-specific profiles. NRAS mutations are the second most prevalent RAS mutations in skin and hematological malignancies.

Novel Evolutionarily Conserved Oncogene COA4 is Driven by KRAS Mutant and Promotes Cancer Metastasis Through Dual Mitochondrial Metabolism‐Dependent and ‐Independent Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In KRAS‐mutant tumors, KRAS transcriptionally upregulates COA4 via the PI3K/AKT/E2F1 axis, promoting metastasis. Mechanistically, COA4 enhances tumor cell migration through dual pathways: within mitochondria, it boosts oxidative phosphorylation; in the cytoplasm, it binds and activates CDC42 to stimulate pseudopodia formation.

Allele‐Specific Regulation of PAXIP1‐AS1 by SMC3/CEBPB at rs112651172 in Psychiatric Disorders Drives Synaptic and Behavioral Dysfunctions in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a functional noncoding variant, rs112651172 (C/G), that drives allele‐specific expression of PAXIP1‐AS1 in monozygotic twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The risk G allele enhances CEBPB binding, leading to lncRNA upregulation, CNTNAP3 derepression, and synaptic and behavioral deficits in mice.

Estrogen Alleviates Sevoflurane‐Induced Neurotoxicity by Inhibiting ERα‐Tau Binding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sevoflurane‐induced neurotoxicity exhibits sex differences, and estrogen can mitigate these effects; however, its protective action appears to be time‐window dependent, which may be related to the competitive binding of estrogen and Tau to ERα. Abstract Sevoflurane‐induced neurotoxicity is age‐dependent, but the role of sex differences is unclear ...

Open and cut: allosteric motion and membrane fission by dynamin superfamily proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cells have evolved diverse protein-based machinery to reshape, cut, or fuse their membrane-delimited compartments. Dynamin superfamily proteins are principal components of this machinery and use their ability to hydrolyze GTP and to polymerize into ...
