Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Systematic discovery of structural elements governing stability of mammalian messenger RNAs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Decoding post-transcriptional regulatory programs in RNA is a critical step towards the larger goal of developing predictive dynamical models of cellular behaviour.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

From the proteomic point of view: Integration of adaptive changes to iron deficiency in plants

open access: yesCurrent Plant Biology, 2016
Knowledge about the proteomic adaptations to iron deficiency in plants may contribute to find possible new research targets in order to generate crop plants that are more tolerant to iron deficiency, to increase the iron content or to enhance the ...

HnRNP-like proteins as post-transcriptional regulators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Plant cells contain a diverse repertoire of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that coordinate a network of post-transcriptional regulation. RBPs govern diverse developmental processes by modulating the gene expression of specific transcripts.

Post-transcriptional regulation of early embryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesF1000Prime Reports, 2015
Gene expression is controlled by diverse mechanisms before, during, and after transcription. Chromatin modification factors as well as transcriptional repressors, silencers, and enhancers all feed into how eukaryotes transcribe RNA in the nucleus.

Post-transcriptional regulation of the pluripotent state [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2017
Pluripotency describes the developmental capacity to give rise to all cell types in the adult body. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms that regulate pluripotency is important for both basic and translational research. While earlier studies mostly focused on signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and epigenetic ...

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

The role of long non-coding RNAs in genome formatting and expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2015
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts without protein-coding potential but having a pivotal role in numerous biological functions. Long non-coding RNAs act as regulators at different levels of gene expression including chromatin organization ...
