USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

The Birth and Demise of the ISApl1-mcr-1-ISApl1 Composite Transposon: the Vehicle for Transferable Colistin Resistance

mBio, 2018
The origin and mobilization of the ~2,609-bp DNA segment containing the mobile colistin resistance gene mcr-1 continue to be sources of uncertainty, but recent evidence suggests that the gene originated in Moraxella species.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Evaluation of Drug Resistance Pattern and Molecular Detection of ISAba1 and ISAba2 in Acinetobacter baumannii Strains Isolated from Hospitalized Patients [PDF]

Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences
Background and purpose: Acinetobacter species have emerged as major causes of nosocomial infections. Acinetobacter baumannii, the most common clinical subspecies, can cause a wide range of nosocomial infections, including pneumonia, bloodstream ...

Benefits and costs of a hypercapsule and the mechanism of its loss in a clinical isolate of Acinetobacter baumannii

mBio
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen in which capsule production is closely linked to immune evasion and environmental persistence. Recent studies have described two seemingly contradictory phenomena—increasing prevalence of capsule ...

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Conserved Patterns of Symmetric Inversion in the Genome Evolution of Bordetella Respiratory Pathogens

mSystems, 2019
Whooping cough (pertussis), primarily caused by Bordetella pertussis, has resurged in the United States, and circulating strains exhibit considerable chromosome structural fluidity in the form of rearrangement and deletion.

ZW4864‐mediated inhibition of the β‐catenin/BCL9/BCL9L complex reveals therapeutic potential in bladder cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
BCL9 and BCL9L drive bladder cancer progression by enhancing β‐catenin signaling, promoting proliferation, migration, invasion, and organoid growth. Genetic depletion of BCL9(L) suppresses malignant phenotypes, while pharmacological disruption of the β‐catenin/BCL9(L) complex with ZW4864 inhibits canonical Wnt signaling and tumor‐associated cellular ...

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Matching Sequences under Deletion/Insertion Constraints [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972
Given two finite sequences, we wish to find the longest common subsequences satisfying certain deletion/insertion constraints. Consider two successive terms in the desired subsequence. The distance between their positions must be the same in the two original sequences for all but a limited number of such pairs of successive terms.
