S14: Insights from Knockout Mice [PDF]
Endocrinology, 2006 Spot 14 (S14) is a protein whose mRNA is rapidly up-regulated by lipogenic stimuli including thyroid hormone and a high-carbohydrate diet. Previous investigation into the role of S14 suggested that it is involved in de novo lipogenesis. Knockout of the gene in mice has given further support to this hypothesis.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Thymosin Beta-4 Induces Mouse Hair Growth. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Thymosin beta-4 (Tβ4) is known to induce hair growth and hair follicle (HF) development; however, its mechanism of action is unknown. We generated mice that overexpressed Tβ4 in the epidermis, as well as Tβ4 global knockout mice, to study the role of Tβ4

Reciprocal knock-in mice to investigate the functional redundancy of lamin B1 and lamin B2. [PDF]
, 2014 Lamins B1 and B2 (B-type lamins) have very similar sequences and are expressed ubiquitously. In addition, both Lmnb1- and Lmnb2-deficient mice die soon after birth with neuronal layering abnormalities in the cerebral cortex, a consequence of defective ...

Osteocytes and mechanical loading: The Wnt connection [PDF]
, 2019 Bone adapts to the mechanical forces that it experiences. Orthodontic tooth movement harnesses the cell‐ and tissue‐level properties of mechanotransduction to achieve alignment and reorganization of the dentition.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

The kinases MSK1 and MSK2 act as negative regulators of Toll-like receptor signaling [PDF]
, 2008 The kinases MSK1 and MSK2 are activated 'downstream' of the p38 and Erk1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Here we found that MSK1 and MSK2 were needed to limit the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to stimulation of primary ...

Sleep in Kcna2 knockout mice [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2007 Abstract Background Shaker codes for a Drosophila voltage-dependent potassium channel. Flies carrying Shaker null or hypomorphic mutations sleep 3–4 h/day instead of 8–14 h/day as their wild-type siblings do. Shaker-like channels are conserved across species but it is unknown whether they affect sleep
