CDC42 binds PAK4 via an extended GTPase-effector interface

open access: yes, 2018
Significance The p21-activated kinase (PAK) group of serine/threonine kinases are downstream effectors of RHO GTPases and play important roles in regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, cell growth, survival, polarity, and development.

Molecular Bases and Genetic Design of Rice Disease Resistance for Optimized Yield and Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrates rice immune perception, signal transduction, and resistance output into a multi‐omics framework. By combining high‐throughput sequencing, phenomics, and AI‐assisted design with marker‐assisted selection, gene editing, and rapid domestication, we aim to accelerate the precise breeding of disease‐resistant rice varieties by ...

Design of a Novel Diamine Biosensor to Guide the Engineering of Escherichia coli for Cadaverine Overproduction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A high‐throughput screening platform was established by integrating an in vivo cadaverine biosensor with a fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS) system. Biosensor‐driven specific exporter tuning, pathway optimization and genome‐wide target mining were conducted to maximize cadaverine production in Escherichia coli.

Matrix Rigidity Mechanoprimes Microglia for Inflammation Through Cytoskeletal‐to‐Nuclear Signaling and 3D Spatio‐Epigenomic Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pathological tissue rigidity mechanoprimes microglia by enhancing actin cytoskeleton–nucleus coupling and chromatin opening at rigidity‐responsive cis‐regulatory elements (mechanoCREs). Subsequent NF‐κB/p65 signaling converges on this permissive regulatory state to amplify inflammatory gene expression and microglial activation.

A Tumor‐Boundary Niche Enriched for PD‐1+CD8+T Cells and BTLA+B Cells Drives Resistance to Immunotherapy in NSCLC

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A spatial niche composed of BTLA+B cells and CD8+T cells is enriched at the tumor boundary in non‐small cell lung cancer. Within this specialized niche, BTLA+B cells act as a dominant source of IL‐6, upregulating PD‐1 on CD8+T cells via STAT3 signaling.

Refining Domain‐Based Prognostication in DNM1 Encephalopathy: A Mild Phenotype Associated With a GTPase Domain Variant

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT DNM1 encephalopathy is a rare autosomal dominant genetic condition characterized by a range of neurological and developmental manifestations. The typical phenotype is severe, including profound intellectual disability, treatment‐resistant epilepsy, ataxia, and structural brain abnormalities. However, milder presentations have increasingly been

Amino acid deprivation inhibits TORC1 through a GTPase-activating protein complex for the rag family GTPase Gtr1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Rag family of guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) regulates eukaryotic cell growth in response to amino acids by activating the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1). In humans, this pathway is often deregulated in cancer.

Patient‐Derived Fibroblasts as a Clinically Relevant Model of Kearns–Sayre Syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Kearns–Sayre syndrome (KSS) is characterized by single large‐scale mitochondrial DNA deletions and by severe early‐onset clinical manifestations with neurological involvement. Reliable disease models, as well as validated biomarkers or effective treatments, are lacking.
