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).

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.

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.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Extracellular vesicle (EV) lipidomic profiling of plasma and ascites from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian cancer and of ovarian cancer cell lines reveals enrichment of triglycerides (TGs), diacylglycerols (DGs), phosphatidylcholine (PCs), sphingomyelins (SMs), reflecting tumor metabolic reprogramming.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Loss of eIF5A rewires thapsigargin‐mediated endoplasmic reticulum stress responses in multiple myeloma cells by selective translation of mRNA transcripts, consequently dampening thapsigargin‐induced unfolded protein response (UPR) activation and shifting the balance from induction of apoptosis toward cell survival and proliferation.

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.In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Characterization of Bacillus anthracis lethal factor [PDF]
, 2006 Anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx), consisting of protective antigen and lethal factor (LF), is a principal virulence factor of Bacillus anthracis. LF represents the enzymatic component of LeTx and its cytosolic targets are members of the mitogen activated ...
