The Molecular Mechanism of Alpha-Synuclein Dependent Regulation of Protein Phosphatase 2A Activity
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018 Background/Aims: Alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) is a neuronal protein that is highly implicated in Parkinson’s disease (PD), and protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is an important serine/threonine phosphatase that is associated with neurodegenerative diseases, such ...

CEACAM1 participation in breast cancer progression
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In invasive breast cancer (BC), CEACAM1 shifts from an apical to a uniform membranous/cytoplasmic pattern, or is lost, as tumors dedifferentiate, inversely tracking the Ki‐67 proliferative index. In MCF‐7 cells, only CEACAM1‐4L suppresses proliferation, repressing cell cycle and growth factor genes.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We show that emergence of castration‐resistant prostate (CRPC) is associated with significant upregulation of cyclins that positively regulate cyclin‐dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and concomitant downregulation of CDK4 cyclins. This renders CRPC cells dependent on the high activity of CDK2, and CDK2 inhibitors synergistically sensitize CRPC cells to both ...

protein phosphatase type 2A can dephosphorylate phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase
, 1990 Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, which catalyses the nocturnal fixation of CO2 in Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants, is regulated by reversible phosphorylation.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Loss of eIF5A rewires thapsigargin‐mediated endoplasmic reticulum stress responses in multiple myeloma cells by selective translation of mRNA transcripts, consequently dampening thapsigargin‐induced unfolded protein response (UPR) activation and shifting the balance from induction of apoptosis toward cell survival and proliferation.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.

Structural mechanism for inhibition of PP2A-B56α and oncogenicity by CIP2A
Nature Communications, 2023 Tumour suppressors are inhibited in cancers and their reactivation could provide novel therapy opportunities. Here, the authors study the structural mechanism by which human tumour suppressor Protein Phosphatase 2A is inhibited in breast cancer cells by ...

Role of Protein Phosphatase-2A (PP-2A) in the Control of Mitosis and Meiosis. [PDF]
, 2020 A specific form of Protein Phosphatase-2A (PP-2A), namely PP2A-B55δ was proposed to occupy a central role in the control of mitosis entry and exit, and meiosis in Xenopus oocytes [1,3]. It was held that PP2A-B55δ is responsible for dephosphorylating substrates of cdc2/Cdk1 and that inhibition of PP2A-B55δ by Arpp-19 phosphorylated at serine 67 by ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.
