Deep Neural Network Classifier for Virtual Screening Inhibitors of (S)-Adenosyl-L-Methionine (SAM)-Dependent Methyltransferase Family

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2019
The (S)-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases play essential roles in post-translational modifications (PTMs) and other miscellaneous biological processes, and are implicated in the pathogenesis of various genetic disorders and cancers.

The emerging role of lysine methyltransferase SETD8 in human diseases

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2016
SETD8/SET8/Pr-SET7/KMT5A is the only known lysine methyltransferase (KMT) that monomethylates lysine 20 of histone H4 (H4K20) in vivo. Lysine residues of non-histone proteins including proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and p53 are also ...

Tumor Intrinsic METTL5 Modulates ATF4 Translation to Prevent T Cell‐Induced Ferroptosis in Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrative analysis combining in vitro genome‐wide immune screens, in vivo ICB screens, and clinical data mining identifies METTL5 as a key tumor‐intrinsic immune factor. Mechanistic studies further reveal the importance of the METTL5‐ATF4‐SLC7A11/SLC3A2‐ferroptosis axis in modulating antitumor immune responses. These findings highlight METTL5 as a

Homocysteine Exacerbates Pulmonary Fibrosis via Orchestrating Syntaxin 17 Homocysteinylation of Alveolar Type II Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study identifies elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients' samples, with alveolar type 2 cells as the primary site of Hcy metabolism. Methionine synthase reductase downregulation in these cells exacerbates fibrosis, while folate administration reduces Hcy levels and alleviates fibrosis.

Morphine Tolerance Gated through EZH2‐Mediated Suppression of Trpc5 in Spinal GABAergic Interneurons in Male Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic morphine suppresses Trpc5 in spinal GABAergic interneurons via EZH2‐mediated histone modification, reducing Ca2+ influx and GABA release. TRPC5 activation enhances morphine analgesia, while EZH2 inhibition restores efficacy and reverses tolerance.

Exploration of Novel Biomarkers Through a Precision Medicine Approach Using Multi‐Omics and Brain Organoids in Patients With Atypical Depression and Psychotic Symptoms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study examines major depressive disorder with atypical features and psychotic symptoms through a multi‐omics precision medicine approach. By integrating clinical assessments, WBC scRNA‐seq, plasma proteomics, and brain organoid models, it uncovers immune dysregulation, synaptic protein alterations, and stress‐sensitive neuronal changes.

HPD is an m6A Methyltransferase that Protects Colorectal Cancer Cells from Ferroptotic Cell Death by m6A Methylating SLC7A11/GPX4

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the tyrosine metabolic enzyme HPD functions as a previously uncharacterized, METTL3‐independent m6A methyltransferase. It promotes colorectal tumor progression by coordinately regulating the SLC7A11/GPX4 axis to suppress ferroptosis.
