Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) Single-Molecule Assay to Analyze the Motility of Kinesin

open access: yesBio-Protocol
The motile parameters of kinesin superfamily proteins are fundamental to intracellular transport. Single-molecule motility assays using total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy are a gold standard technique for measuring the motile ...

Disruption of Four Kinesin Genes in Dictyostelium

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2008
Background Kinesin and dynein are the two families of microtubule-based motors that drive much of the intracellular movements in eukaryotic cells. Using a gene knockout strategy, we address here the individual function(s) of four of the 13 kinesin ...

Quantum‐Enhanced Weighted Gene Co‐Expression Network Analysis Reveals Regulatory Networks Underlying Sexual Size Dimorphism in Macrobrachium nipponense

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A quantum‐enhanced weighted gene co‐expression network analysis framework integrating quantum amplitude amplification is developed to overcome sample size constraints in zoological genomics. This noise‐tolerant analytical strategy enables robust network reconstruction for non‐model species with limited biological replicates.

Chromosome 20q Amplification Regulates in Vitro Response to Kinesin-5 Inhibitor

open access: yesCancer Informatics, 2008
We identified gene expression signatures predicting responsiveness to a Kinesin-5 (KIF11) inhibitor (Kinesin-5i) in cultured colon tumor cell lines.

Inhibition of leucine‐rich kinase 2 (LRRK2) promotes peripheral axon regeneration via phosphorylation‐network remodelling

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose In contrast to neurons in the central nervous system, neurons in the peripheral nervous system can regenerate axons after injury via activation of a pro‐regenerative transcriptional programme. Pathogenic mutations in leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common genetic cause of Parkinson's disease, and several small ...

Connecting neurodevelopment to neurodegeneration: a spotlight on the role of kinesin superfamily protein 2A (KIF2A)

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Microtubules play a central role in cytoskeletal changes during neuronal development and maintenance. Microtubule dynamics is essential to polarity and shape transitions underlying neural cell division, differentiation, motility, and maturation.

Targeting Cell Cycle Vulnerabilities in Cancers: Emerging Strategies for Therapeutic Development

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated cell cycle control often involves alternative compensatory pathways in cancers to maintain its robustness but provide unique targetable vulnerabilities. We overview recent insights on cancer‐specific vulnerabilities across the cell cycle and discuss how these can be used to develop new therapeutic strategies.

Pleiotropic Roles of FBXO11 in Tumorigenesis: Implications for Targeted Therapy

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
This complex comprises of scaffold CUL1, SKP1, RBX1 and FBXO11 receptor. The substrate is phosphorylated by specific kinase enzyme and recognized by the substrate recognition domain. FBXO11 targets numerous substrates for ubiquitination and degradation, FBXO11 substrates mainly include Snail, ZEB1, p53, BCL6, CDT2, CIITA, Cdc25a, hnRNPA2B1, SAMD1 and ...

RNF13 regulates the endolysosomal pathway through interaction with the small GTPase Arl8B

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF13 functions as a regulatory scaffold, organizing Arl8B‐dependent complexes and tuning downstream signaling that controls endolysosomal organization and trafficking. In this model, wild‐type RNF13 associates with Arl8B on endolysosomes, whereas Arl8B (E22D/F55A) or RNF13 (L244A) variants weaken complex assembly, potentially ...
