A nucleotide‐independent, pan‐RAS‐targeted DARPin elicits anti‐tumor activity in a multimodal manner

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We report a Designed Ankyrin Repeat Protein that binds and inhibits RAS proteins, which serve as central cell signaling hubs and are essential for the progression of many cancers. Its unique feature is that it does not discriminate between different RAS isoforms or mutations and is capable of binding to RAS in both its active (GTP‐bound) and inactive ...

Elevated Plasma Histone H4 Levels Are an Important Risk Factor in the Development of Septic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2020
Background:Myocardial impairment is a major complication and an important prognostic predictor of sepsis. Therefore, early and accurate diagnosis as well as timely management of septic cardiomyopathy is critical to achieve favorable outcomes.Aims:To ...

Epigenetic marking of sperm by post-translational modification of histones and protamines

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2014
BackgroundThe concept that individual traits can be acquired and transmitted by the germline through epigenetic mechanisms has gained recognition in the past years.

BMP antagonist CHRDL2 enhances the cancer stem‐cell phenotype and increases chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Overexpression of CHRDL2 in colon cancer cells makes them more stem‐like and resistant to chemo‐ and radiotherapy. CHRDL2‐high cells have upregulation of the WNT pathway, genes involved in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). This leads to quicker repair of damaged DNA and more cell migration.

Histones: At the Crossroads of Peptide and Protein Chemistry

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2014
In eukaryotic cells, inheritable information is stored in a nucleoprotein complex referred to as chromatin.1 This genome architecture serves two key purposes.

Simultaneous inhibition of TRIM24 and TRIM28 sensitises prostate cancer cells to antiandrogen therapy, decreasing VEGF signalling and angiogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TRIM24 and TRIM28 are androgen receptor (AR) coregulators which exhibit increased expression with cancer progression. Both TRIM24 and TRIM28 combine to influence the response of castrate‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells to AR inhibitors by mediating AR signalling, regulation of MYC and upregulating VEGF to promote angiogenesis. Castrate‐resistant

COMPARATIVE STRUCTURAL STABILITY OF HISTONES BY INTERACTION OF SODIUM NDODECYL SULPHATE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 1991
The interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) with histones in phosphate buffer pH 6.4 has been studied spectroscopically and by equilibrium dialysis.

Lysine Succinylation and Lysine Malonylation in Histones*

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Proteomics, 2012
Histone protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) are significant for gene expression and DNA repair. Here we report the identification and validation of a new type of PTM in histones, lysine succinylation.

Tumor clusters with divergent inflammation and human retroelement expression determine the clinical outcome of patients with serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Analysis of treatment‐naïve high‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) and control tissues for ERVs, LINE‐1 (L1), inflammation, and immune checkpoints identified five clusters with diverse patient recurrence‐free survivals. An inflammation score was calculated and correlated with retroelement expression, where one novel cluster (Triple‐I) with high ...
