cGAS/STING-Independent Induction of Type I Interferon by Inhibitors of the Histone Methylase KDM5B. [PDF]
Studies support the role of hexamethylene bis‐acetamide [HMBA] induced protein 1 (HEXIM1) as a tumor suppressor. We previously reported that the histone demethylase, KDM5B, inhibits the expression of HEXIM1, and KDM5B inhibitors (KDM5Bi) upregulate ...

Involvement of RNase J in CRISPR RNA maturation in the cyanobacterium <i>Synechocystis</i> sp. PCC 6803. [PDF]
Many bacteria and archaea use CRISPR-Cas systems, which provide RNA-based, adaptive, and inheritable immune defenses against invading viruses and other foreign genetic elements. The proper processing of CRISPR guide RNAs (crRNAs) is a crucial step in the

Downregulation of LRP/LR with siRNA inhibits several cancer hallmarks in lung cancer cells
LRP/LR is overexpressed in many cancer cell types and is associated with various cancer‐promoting processes. In this study, we downregulated LRP/LR in lung cancer cells and showed that this strategy has a four‐fold function in impeding key cancer hallmarks in the lung cancer cells, which therefore has the potential for improving the prognosis of those ...

Heterozygous PNPT1 Variants Cause Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 25
Objective Dominant spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are characterized by genetic heterogeneity. Some mapped and named loci remain without a causal gene identified. Here we applied next generation sequencing (NGS) to uncover the genetic etiology of the SCA25 locus.

Abstract SUPV3L1 encodes a helicase that is mainly localized in the mitochondria. It has been shown in vitro to possess both double‐stranded RNA and DNA unwinding activity that is ATP‐dependent. Here we report the first two patients for this gene who presented with a homozygous preliminary stop codon resulting in a C‐terminal truncation of the SUPV3L1 ...

Comparative genomics provides structural and functional insights into Bacteroides RNA biology
Most of our knowledge of bacterial regulatory RNAs and their associated proteins stems from model organisms such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica. In contrast, the RNA biology of Bacteroides spp.—an important component of the human gut microbiota—is significantly understudied.
