Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

The short-lived MATα2 transcriptional regulator is ubiquitinated in vivo [PDF]
The substrates of ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathways include both damaged or otherwise abnormal proteins and undamaged proteins that are naturally short-lived. Few specific examples of the latter class have been identified, however.

Protein Structure Prediction Using Basin-Hopping
Associative memory Hamiltonian structure prediction potentials are not overly rugged, thereby suggesting their landscapes are like those of actual proteins.

A novel zinc finger transcriptional repressor, ZNF224, interacts with the negative regulatory element (AldA-NRE) and inhibits gene expression [PDF]
The interaction between the negative cis-element (AldA-NRE) and p97 repressor nuclear protein is a key step in modulating transcription of the human and mouse aldolase A (AldA) gene during the cell cycle and differentiation.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Binding of the Bacillus subtilis LexA protein to the SOS operator [PDF]
The Bacillus subtilis LexA protein represses the SOS response to DNA damage by binding as a dimer to the consensus operator sequence 5′-CGAACN(4)GTTCG-3′.

A Splicing Repressor Domain in Polypyrimidine Tract-binding Protein [PDF]
Polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTB) is an hnRNP with four RRM type domains. It plays roles as a repressive alternative splicing regulator of multilple target genes, as well as being involved in pre-mRNA 3' end processing, mRNA localization, stability, and internal ribosome entry site-mediated translation.

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Regulated expression of a repressor protein: FadR activates iclR [PDF]
The control of the glyoxylate bypass operon (aceBAK) of Escherichia coli is mediated by two regulatory proteins, IclMR and FadR. IclMR is a repressor protein which has previously been shown to bind to a site which overlaps the aceBAK promoter. FAR is a repressor/activator protein which participates in control of the genes of fatty acid metabolism.
