ToxinsBacillus anthracis has three main virulence factors: an extracellular capsule and two binary toxins (lethal toxin—consists of a lethal factor and a protective antigen, and edema toxin—consists of an edema factor and a protective antigen).

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Matched spatial transcriptomics and single‐nuclei RNA‐seq were generated for anaplastic and BRAFV600E papillary thyroid cancers revealing generic and tumor‐specific states occurring in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment. In this context, cancer dedifferentiation mirrored organoid maturation through ordered thyroid marker gain/loss ...

Conformational Dynamics of the Anthrax Lethal Factor Catalytic Center
, 2016 Anthrax lethal factor (LF) is a zinc-metalloprotease that together with the protective antigen constitutes anthrax lethal toxin, which is the most prominent virulence factor of the anthrax disease.

The cytotoxic activity of Bacillus anthracis lethal factor is inhibited by leukotriene A(4) hydrolase and metallopeptidase inhibitors [PDF]
, 1996 The lethal factor of Bacillus anthracis is central to the pathogenesis of anthrax. Its mechanism of action is still unknown. Recently, on the basis of sequence similarities, we suggested that lethal factor might act similarly to leukotriene A4 hydrolase (

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

CD4+ T cells targeting dominant and cryptic epitopes from Bacillus anthracis Lethal Factor
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Anthrax is an endemic infection in many countries, particularly in the developing world. The causative agent, Bacillus anthracis, mediates disease through the secretion of binary exotoxins.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of the ribotoxic stress response in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cancer cells' high translational demand creates opportunities to therapeutically target ribosome function. Ribosome stalling and collisions activate ZAKα and the ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which can trigger rapid, p53‐independent apoptosis in cancer.
