The splicing factor proline-glutamine rich (SFPQ/PSF) is involved in influenza virus transcription. [PDF]

, 2011
The influenza A virus RNA polymerase is a heterotrimeric complex responsible for viral genome transcription and replication in the nucleus of infected cells. We recently carried out a proteomic analysis of purified polymerase expressed in human cells and

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Co‐Occurring Non‐Cardiac Congenital Anomalies Among Cases With Congenital Heart Defects

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cases with congenital heart defects (CHD) often have other associated anomalies. The aim of this investigation was to assess the prevalence and the types of co‐occurring anomalies in CHD in a well‐defined population. The anomalies co‐occurring with CHD were ascertained in all live births, stillbirths and terminations of pregnancy for fetal ...

Variable structure motifs for transcription factor binding sites [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Classically, models of DNA-transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) have been based on relatively few known instances and have treated them as sites of fixed length using position weight matrices (PWMs).

Sesamol Inhibited Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Hyperpigmentation and Damage in C57BL/6 Mouse Skin

Antioxidants, 2019
Melanin is synthesized through a series of oxidative reactions initiated with tyrosine and catalyzed by melanogenesis-related proteins such as tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1), dopachrome tautomerase (TRP-2), and microphthalmia-associated

Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Zebrafish, with high genetic homology to humans, serves as a powerful vertebrate model for disease modeling and drug discovery. Integration of CRISPR/Cas9 technology enables precise genome editing, facilitating the development of translational models for human diseases.
