Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We identified adaptor protein ShcD as upregulated in triple‐negative breast cancer and found its expression to be correlated with reduced patient survival and increased invasion in cell models. Using a proteomic screen, we identified novel ShcD binding partners involved in EGFR signaling pathways.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

Bioinformatics analysis identifies several intrinsically disordered human E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 The ubiquitin-proteasome system targets misfolded proteins for degradation. Since the accumulation of such proteins is potentially harmful for the cell, their prompt removal is important.

Hepatic cytochromes P450: structural degrons and barcodes, posttranslational modifications and cellular adapters in the ERAD-endgame. [PDF]
, 2016 The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored hepatic cytochromes P450 (P450s) are enzymes that metabolize endo- and xenobiotics i.e. drugs, carcinogens, toxins, natural and chemical products.

Ubiquitination of transcription factors in cancer: unveiling therapeutic potential
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In cancer, dysregulated ubiquitination of transcription factors contributes to the uncontrolled growth and survival characteristics of tumors. Tumor suppressors are degraded by aberrant ubiquitination, or oncogenic transcription factors gain stability through ubiquitination, thereby promoting tumorigenesis.

The ubiquitin system and jasmonate signaling [PDF]
, 2016 The ubiquitin (Ub) system is involved in most, if not all, biological processes in eukaryotes. The major specificity determinants of this system are the E3 ligases, which bind and ubiquitinate specific sets of proteins and are thereby responsible for ...

Targeted protein degradation in oncology: novel therapeutic opportunity for solid tumours?
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Current anticancer therapies are limited by the occurrence of resistance and undruggability of most proteins. Targeted protein degraders are novel, promising agents that trigger the selective degradation of previously undruggable proteins through the recruitment of the ubiquitin–proteasome machinery. Their mechanism of action raises exciting challenges,

Extraordinarily Stable Hairpin-Based Biosensors for Rapid Detection of DNA Ligases
Biosensors, 2023 DNA ligases are essential enzymes involved in DNA replication and repair processes in all organisms. These enzymes seal DNA breaks by catalyzing the formation of phosphodiester bonds between juxtaposed 5′ phosphate and 3′ hydroxyl termini in double ...
