Identification of the DNA sequence interacting with Kaposis sarcoma-associated herpesvirus viral interferon regulatory factor 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma. The open reading frame (K9) of KSHV encodes viral interferon regulatory factor 1 (vIRF1), which functions as a repressor of interferon-mediated signal ...

RNA‐related functions of BRCA2 in transcription, replication, and genome stability

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in homologous recombination, BRCA2 regulates R‐loop homeostasis, DNA–RNA hybrid resolution, RNA polymerase II dynamics, and transcriptional activation. Disruption of any of these functions can contribute to genome instability, inflammatory signaling, and tumorigenesis. BRCA2 is a central tumor suppressor protein best known for its roles

Comparative analysis of the impact of interferon regulatory factors on basal and induced interferon and interferon stimulated gene expression in human and canine keratinocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionKeratinocytes are key barrier cells able to mount a robust interferon (IFN) antiviral response to defend against infection in the skin. Similar to humans, dogs spontaneously develop skin disorders associated with dysregulation of IFN immunity

Bim nuclear translocation and inactivation by viral interferon regulatory factor.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
Viral replication efficiency is in large part governed by the ability of viruses to counteract pro-apoptotic signals induced by infection of the host cell.

Interferon regulatory factor 5 and autoimmune lupus [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 2013
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a severe multi-system autoimmune disease, whereas interferon regulatory factor (IRF) 5 belongs to the family of transcription factors that modulate immune system activities. Recently, many lines of investigations suggested that IRF5 gene polymorphisms are closely associated with the disease onset of SLE.

Interferon regulatory factor-8 suppresses osteoclastogenesis

open access: yes, 2010
To date, understanding of the molecular mechanisms of bone metabolism has centered on three tumor necrosis factor family members--RANK, its ligand RANKL and its decoy receptor osteoprotegrin.

Interferon regulatory factor-5-dependent CD11c+ macrophages contribute to the formation of rupture-prone atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Aims: Inflammation is a key factor in atherosclerosis. The transcription factor interferon regulatory factor-5 (IRF5) drives macrophages towards a pro-inflammatory state.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus viral interferon regulatory factor-2 inhibits type 1 interferon signalling by targeting interferon-stimulated gene factor-3

open access: yes, 2011
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes four viral interferon regulatory factors (vIRF-1-4). We investigated the mechanism and consequences of vIRF-2-mediated inhibition of interferon-response element signalling following type 1 interferon
