Structure of the planar cell polarity cadherins Fat4 and Dachsous1

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Fat and Dachsous are large cadherins that regulate planar polarity as a receptor:ligand pair. Here, authors determine the structure of the Fat:Dachsous complex to uncover the molecular determinants of binding and posttranslational modification.

Posttranslational Modifications of RAS Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2018
The three human RAS genes encode four proteins that play central roles in oncogenesis by acting as binary molecular switches that regulate signaling pathways for growth and differentiation. Each is subject to a set of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) that modify their activity or are required for membrane targeting.

Posttranslational regulatory mechanism of PD-L1 in cancers and associated opportunities for novel small-molecule therapeutics

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica
Despite the tremendous progress in cancer research over the past few decades, effective therapeutic strategies are still urgently needed. Accumulating evidence suggests that immune checkpoints are the cause of tumor immune escape.

Mammalian N1-adenosine PARylation is a reversible DNA modification

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is a well-known posttranslational modification of proteins. Here the authors show that beyond proteins also mammalian single-stranded DNA is PARylated in vitro and in vivo.

Malignant progression of liver cancer progenitors requires lysine acetyltransferase 7–acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G protein GαS

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
KAT7‐acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G‐protein GαS enhances IL‐6 effect and drives HCC progenitor cell progression. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocarcinogenesis goes through HCC progenitor cells (HcPCs) to fully established HCC, and the mechanisms driving the development of HcPCs are still largely unknown.

SnapShot: p53 Posttranslational Modifications

open access: yesCell, 2008
Since p53 was cloned and subsequently characterized as a tumor suppressor more the 20 years ago, more than 40,000 publications have been published relating to this protein. A great majority of this scientific literature focuses on the intricate details of p53 regulation by posttranslational modifications.

Posttranslational Modification and Quality Control [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2013
Protein quality control functions to minimize the level and toxicity of misfolded proteins in the cell. Protein quality control is performed by intricate collaboration among chaperones and target protein degradation. The latter is performed primarily by the ubiquitin-proteasome system and perhaps autophagy.

HIPK2 and extrachromosomal histone H2B are separately recruited by Aurora-B for cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018

Tissue-Specific Posttranslational Modification Allows Functional Targeting of Thyrotropin

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; thyrotropin) is a glycoprotein secreted from the pituitary gland. Pars distalis-derived TSH (PD-TSH) stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones (THs), whereas pars tuberalis-derived TSH (PT-TSH) acts on the
