Hitting a Moving Target: Targeting Transient Protein States [PDF]

Structure, 2013
In this issue of Structure, Bista and colleagues report that inhibitors of the MDM2/p53 interaction can be designed to interact with a transiently folded α-helical segment of the MDM2 lid region. This suggests that targeting transient protein states in PPI inhibitor design could be a promising strategy to improve affinity and/or selectivity profiles.

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

Target Misfolded Protein Clearance Pathway for Cancer Therapy

Proceedings, 2020
The role of RNA-dependent protein kinase R (PKR) and its association with misfolded protein expression in cancer cells are unclear. Herein we report that PKR regulates misfolded protein clearance by preventing it release through exosomes and promoting ...

Fibronectin leucine-rich transmembrane protein 2 drives monocyte differentiation into macrophages via the UNC5B-Akt/mTOR axis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Upon migrating into the tissues, hematopoietic stem cell (HSC)-derived monocytes differentiate into macrophages, playing a crucial role in determining innate immune responses towards external pathogens and internal stimuli.

Recognition of viral glycoproteins by influenza A-specific cross- reactive cytolytic T lymphocytes [PDF]

, 1980
Two populations of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated after influenza A virus infection can be distinguished into one with specificity for the sensitizing hemagglutinin type and a second with cross-reactivity for antigens induced by other type-A ...

Two Faces of NOTCH1 in Childhood Lymphoblastic T‐Cell Neoplasia: Prognostic Divergence of Mutational and Structural Aberrations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In pediatric patients, T‐cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T‐LBL) survival exceeds 80%. Relapse remains associated with limited curative options. Frontline treatment is largely extrapolated from T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) treatment, reflecting the ongoing debate, whether both entities represent distinct diseases or variants within ...

Immune-induced TCR-like antibodies regulate specific T cell response in mice

Nature Communications
Antigen-specific regulation of T cell response is crucial for limiting hyperimmune response. However, the molecular mechanisms governing specific immune regulation remain unclear. In this study, we discover that antibodies specific to the antigen peptide-

Selection of Color-Changing and Intensity-Increasing Fluorogenic Probe as Protein-Specific Indicator Obtained via the 10BASEd-T [PDF]

, 2016
To obtain a molecular probe for specific protein detection, we have synthesized fluorogenic probe library of vastdiversity on bacteriophage T7 via the gp10 based-thioetherificaion (10BASEd-T).

Myc proteins as therapeutic targets [PDF]

Oncogene, 2010
Myc proteins (c-myc, Mycn and Mycl) target proliferative and apoptotic pathways vital for progression in cancer. Amplification of the MYCN gene has emerged as one of the clearest indicators of aggressive and chemotherapy-refractory disease in children with neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood.

Serological Benefit of SARS‐CoV‐2 Vaccination Relative to Infection in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of severe outcomes from SARS‐CoV‐2 (SCV2). In the post‐pandemic context, where most children have been infected with SCV2, there are limited data on whether vaccination remains beneficial in children with ALL.
