Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Epigenetic Control of Replication Origins [PDF]
Cell Cycle, 2005 Efficient duplication of the eukaryotic genome requires the spatial and temporal coordination of numerous replication origins on each chromosome. Epigenetic factors, like chromatin environment, can have profound effects on origin site selection, utilization frequency, and cell cycle firing time.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

The elusive determinants of replication origins [PDF]
The EMBO Reports, 2007 Despite their central role in maintaining genetic integrity during cell division, there is still considerable uncertainty about how DNA sequences are selected to be replication origins in eukaryotes (DePamphilis, 1999; Gilbert, 2001; Machida et al , 2005). The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae uses a limited set of efficient origins, each of which

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Cell Reports, 2013 The DNA tumor virus Simian virus 40 (SV40) is a model system for studying eukaryotic replication. SV40 large tumor antigen (LTag) is the initiator/helicase that is essential for genome replication.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

RETRACTED: The structure of SV40 large T hexameric helicase in complex with AT-rich origin DNA
eLife, 2016 DNA replication is a fundamental biological process. The initial step in eukaryotic DNA replication is the assembly of the pre-initiation complex, including the formation of two head-to-head hexameric helicases around the replication origin.

SnapShot: Origins of DNA Replication
Cell, 2015 The fundamental unit of DNA replication, the replicon, is governed by a cis-acting replicator sequence and a trans-activating initiator factor. Despite the increased size and complexity of eukaryotic genomes, eukaryotic DNA replication continues to be guided by the fundamental principles and concepts established in the replicon model.

Mcm1 Binds Replication Origins [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003 Mcm1 is an essential protein required for the efficient replication of minichromosomes and the transcriptional regulation of early cell cycle genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study, we report that Mcm1 is an abundant protein that associates globally with chromatin in a punctate pattern.
