The lncRNA landscape of breast cancer reveals a role for DSCAM-AS1 in breast cancer progression. [PDF]
Molecular classification of cancers into subtypes has resulted in an advance in our understanding of tumour biology and treatment response across multiple tumour types. However, to date, cancer profiling has largely focused on protein-coding genes, which

CRISPR-Cas9 screens in human cells and primary neurons identify modifiers of C9ORF72 dipeptide-repeat-protein toxicity. [PDF]
Hexanucleotide-repeat expansions in the C9ORF72 gene are the most common cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia (c9ALS/FTD).

Sonic Hedgehog Is a Member of the Hh/DD-Peptidase Family That Spans the Eukaryotic and Bacterial Domains of Life. [PDF]
Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) coordinates Zn2+ in a manner that resembles that of peptidases. The ability of Shh to undergo autoproteolytic processing is impaired in mutants that affect the Zn2+ coordination, while mutating residues essential for catalytic ...

Targeting the hard to reach: Challenges and novel strategies in the treatment of intracellular bacterial infections: Targeting intracellular bacteria [PDF]
Infectious diseases continue to threaten human and animal health and welfare globally, impacting millions of lives and causing substantial economic loss. The use of antibacterials has been only partially successful in reducing disease impact.

Altering Enzymatic Activity: Recruitment of Carboxypeptidase Activity into an RTEM β-Lactamase/Penicillin-Binding Protein 5 Chimera [PDF]
The D-Ala-D-Ala carboxypeptidases/transpeptidases (penicillin-binding proteins, PBPs) share considerable structural homology with class A β-lactamases (EC 3.5.2.6), although these β-lactamases have no observable D-Ala-D-Ala carboxypeptidase activity ...
