Robust and stable transcriptional repression in Giardia using CRISPRi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Giardia lamblia is a binucleate protistan parasite causing significant diarrheal disease worldwide. An inability to target Cas9 to both nuclei, combined with the lack of nonhomologous end joining and markers for positive selection, has stalled the ...

High-resolution structures of kinesin on microtubules provide a basis for nucleotide-gated force-generation

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Microtubule-based transport by the kinesin motors, powered by ATP hydrolysis, is essential for a wide range of vital processes in eukaryotes. We obtained insight into this process by developing atomic models for no-nucleotide and ATP states of the ...

FAM20A Deficiency Drives Transcriptomic Dysregulation and Functional Impairment in Gingival Fibroblasts

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
FAM20A variants cause AI1G, marked by enamel defects, gingival overgrowth and ectopic calcifications. RNA sequencing of patient‐derived gingival fibroblasts showed dysregulated genes in adhesion, proliferation and signalling pathways. Functional assays revealed increased cell proliferation, impaired ECM interactions and osteogenesis, suggesting FAM20A ...

Hook3 is a scaffold for the opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors cytoplasmic dynein-1 and KIF1C. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The unidirectional and opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors, dynein and kinesin, drive long-distance intracellular cargo transport. Cellular observations suggest that opposite-polarity motors may be coupled.

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.

Kinesin-1 regulates dendrite microtubule polarity in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yeseLife, 2013
In neurons, microtubules (MTs) span the length of both axons and dendrites, and the molecular motors use these intracellular ‘highways' to transport diverse cargo to the appropriate subcellular locations.

Genetic Mapping of Orofacial Traits Reveals a Single Genomic Region Associated With Differences in Multiple Parameters of Jaw Size Between Astyanax mexicanus Surface and Cavefish

open access: yesEvolution &Development, EarlyView.
By performing a genetic association study in cave × surface fish F2 hybrids, we discovered that premaxilla width, dentary length, and maxillary length are all significantly associated with a region on Chromosome 13 containing 109 genes. ABSTRACT The regulation of bone size is a poorly understood and complex developmental process.

Clinical and genetic landscape of epilepsies with absence seizures and single‐gene etiology

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To characterize the clinical, electroencephalographic, and genetic features of epilepsies featuring absence seizures within monogenic etiology, highlighting the diagnostic, treatment and prognostic implications. Methods We conducted a retrospective, multicenter study including patients with monogenic epilepsies and ...
