The centrosomal deubiquitylase USP21 regulates Gli1 transcriptional activity and stability [PDF]

, 2016
USP21 is a centrosome-associated deubiquitylase (DUB) that has been implicated in the formation of primary cilia - crucial organelles for the regulation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway in vertebrates. Here, we identify KCTD6 - a cullin-3 E3-ligase

The transcriptional activator Gli2 modulates T-cell receptor signalling through attenuation of AP-1 and NFκB activity [PDF]

, 2015
Different tissues contain diverse and dynamic cellular niches, providing distinct signals to tissue-resident or migratory infiltrating immune cells.

TNF receptor–related factor 3 inactivation promotes the development of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma through NF‐κB‐inducing kinase–mediated hepatocyte transdifferentiation

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a deadly but poorly understood disease, and its treatment options are very limited. The aim of this study was to identify the molecular drivers of ICC and search for therapeutic targets.

A novel protein LZTFL1 regulates ciliary trafficking of the BBSome and Smoothened. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2011
Many signaling proteins including G protein-coupled receptors localize to primary cilia, regulating cellular processes including differentiation, proliferation, organogenesis, and tumorigenesis.

Atrioventricular canal defect and genetic syndromes: the unifying role of sonic hedgehog [PDF]

, 2019
The atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD) is a congenital heart defect (CHD) frequently associated with extracardiac anomalies (75%). Previous observations from a personal series of patients with AVCD and "polydactyly syndromes" showed that the distinct ...

Some properties of the nematic radial hedgehog in Landau-de Gennes' theory [PDF]

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and applications 397, 2 (2013) pp 586-594, 2012
In the Landau-de Gennes theoretical framework of a $Q -tensor description of nematic liquid crystals, we consider a radial hedgehog defect with strong anchoring conditions in a ball $B \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ . We show that the scalar order parameter is monotonic, and we prove uniqueness of the minimizing hedgehog below the spinodal temperature $T^\ast$ .

Gravitational hedgehog, stringy hedgehog and stringy sphere [PDF]

JHEP 0311 (2003) 058, 2003
We investigate the solutions of Einstein equations such that a hedgehog solution is matched to different exterior or interior solutions via a spherical shell. In the case where both the exterior and the interior regions are hedgehog solutions or one of them is flat, the resulting spherical shell becomes a stringy shell.

Hedgehog-lattice spin texture in classical Heisenberg antiferromagnets on the breathing pyrochlore lattice [PDF]

Phys. Rev. B 103, 014406 (2021), 2020
The hedgehog lattice, a three-dimensional periodic array of magnetic monopoles and antimonopoles, is known to be realized in the presence of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. Here, we demonstrate by means of Monte Carlo simulations that the hedgehog lattice is induced by not the DM interaction but frustration in classical Heisenberg ...

Mitogen-activated kinase kinase kinase 1 inhibits hedgehog signaling and medulloblastoma growth through GLI1 phosphorylation [PDF]

, 2019
The aberrant activation of hedgehog (HH) signaling is a leading cause of the development of medulloblastoma, a pediatric tumor of the cerebellum. The FDA‑approved HH inhibitor, Vismodegib, which targets the transmembrane transducer SMO, has shown limited

Locating large flexible ligands on proteins [PDF]

, 2017
Many biologically important ligands of proteins are large, flexible, and often charged molecules that bind to extended regions on the protein surface. It is infeasible or expensive to locate such ligands on proteins with standard methods such as docking or molecular dynamics (MD) simulation.
