Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Continuous evolution of Eurasian avian-like H1N1 swine influenza viruses with pdm/09-derived internal genes enhances pathogenicity in mice

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Swine influenza A virus (swIAV) is an important zoonotic pathogen with the potential to cause human influenza pandemics. Swine are considered “mixing vessels” for generating novel reassortant influenza A viruses. In 2009, a swine-origin reassortant virus

Variable number of TMC1-dependent mechanotransducer channels underlie tonotopic conductance gradients in the cochlea

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Mechanoelectrical transduction channel (MET) current found in stereocilia of hair cells matures over the first postnatal week. Here the authors look at the contribution of transmembrane channel-like protein 1 and 2 (TMC1 and TMC2) to MET current during ...
