RNA N6-Methyladenosine Modifications and Its Roles in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
The importance of epitranscriptomics in regulating gene expression has received widespread attention. Recently, RNA methylation modifications, particularly N6-methyladenosine (m6A), have received marked attention.

Diagnostic, Therapeutic, and Prognostic Value of the m6A Writer Complex in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has poor prognosis and is usually diagnosed only at an advanced stage. Identification of novel biomarkers is critical to early diagnosis and better prognosis for HCC patients.

Histone methyltransferase KMT2D contributes to the protection of myocardial ischemic injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase 2D (KMT2D) plays an important role in cell development in early life. However, the function of KMT2D in adult cells such as cardiomyocytes or neurons has not been reported.

Elucidation of the di-c-glycosylation steps during biosynthesis of the antitumor antibiotic, kidamycin

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Kidamycins belong to the pluramycin family of antitumor antibiotics that contain di-C-glycosylated angucycline. Owing to its interesting biological activity, several synthetic derivatives of kidamycins are currently being developed.

Metaproteomics reveals methyltransferases implicated in dichloromethane and glycine betaine fermentation by ‘Candidatus Formimonas warabiya’ strain DCMF

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Dichloromethane (DCM; CH2Cl2) is a widespread pollutant with anthropogenic and natural sources. Anaerobic DCM-dechlorinating bacteria use the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway, yet dechlorination reaction mechanisms remain unclear and the enzyme(s) responsible for ...

The University of California San Francisco Preoperative Diffuse Glioma MRI (UCSF-PDGM) Dataset [PDF]

open access: yesRadiology: Artificial Intelligence 4.6 (2022): e220058, 2021
Here we present the University of California San Francisco Preoperative Diffuse Glioma MRI (UCSF-PDGM) dataset. The UCSF-PDGM dataset includes 500 subjects with histopathologically-proven diffuse gliomas who were imaged with a standardized 3 Tesla preoperative brain tumor MRI protocol featuring predominantly 3D imaging, as well as advanced diffusion ...

Gene Expression Profiles of Methyltransferases and Demethylases Associated with Metastasis, Tumor Invasion, CpG73 Methylation, and HPV Status in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Epigenetic studies on the role of DNA-modifying enzymes in HNSCC tumorigenesis have focused on a single enzyme or a group of enzymes. To acquire a more comprehensive insight into the expression profile of methyltransferases and demethylases, in the ...

AlphaFold predicts the most complex protein knot and composite protein knots [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science. 2022; 31( 8):e4380, 2022
The computer artificial intelligence system AlphaFold has recently predicted previously unknown three-dimensional structures of thousands of proteins. Focusing on the subset with high-confidence scores, we algorithmically analyze these predictions for cases where the protein backbone exhibits rare topological complexity, i.e. knotting.

Clinical and Biological Significances of a Methyltransferase-Related Signature in Diffuse Glioma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Methylation of DNA, RNA or protein is a reversible modification. The proteins and genes that regulate this modification can be a candidate target for tumor therapy. However, the characteristics of methyltransferase related genes in glioma remain obscure.

A Pan-Inhibitor for Protein Arginine Methyltransferase Family Enzymes

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) play important roles in transcription, splicing, DNA damage repair, RNA biology, and cellular metabolism. Thus, PRMTs have been attractive targets for various diseases. In this study, we reported the design and
