Histone Demethylase UTX Suppresses Tumor Cell Proliferation by Regulating Stress Granules
These findings indicate that cytoplasmic UTX forms puncta and co‐localizes in stress granules (SGs) upon various stresses. UTX TPR‐domain‐dependently and demethylase‐activity‐independently destabilize SGs by binding G3BP1, the SG hub protein, to disrupt SG network, thus affects tumorigenesis.

Identification of HNRNPK as regulator of hepatitis C virus particle production.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease affecting around 130 million people worldwide. While great progress has been made to define the principle steps of the viral life cycle, detailed knowledge how HCV interacts with its host ...

Packaging signals in single-stranded RNA viruses: nature’s alternative to a purely electrostatic assembly mechanism [PDF]
The formation of a protective protein container is an essential step in the life-cycle of most viruses. In the case of single-stranded (ss)RNA viruses, this step occurs in parallel with genome packaging in a co-assembly process.

Cisplatin causes reactive oxygen species accumulation, leading to apoptosis and inflammation in cochlear hair cells. Small extracellular vesicles primarily derived from the damaged hair cells likely contribute to cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity, carrying a variety of microRNAs and proteins.

R2TP/PAQosome as a promising chemotherapeutic target in cancer
R2TP/PAQosome (particle for arrangement of quaternary structure) is a novel multisubunit chaperone specialized in the assembly/maturation of protein complexes that are involved in essential cellular processes such as PIKKs (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase ...

Dysregulated RNA splicing is an underappreciated molecular feature of cancer. By integrating murine and cellular models with patient specimens of lung adenocarcinoma, this study demonstrates that RAC1B, rather than RAC1A isoform, promotes tumorigenesis and presents a potent therapeutic target for lung cancer. Mechanistically, RAC1B preferentially binds

Crystal Structure of Prp5p Reveals Interdomain Interactions that Impact Spliceosome Assembly
The DEAD-box adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) Prp5p facilitates U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) binding to the intron branch site region during spliceosome assembly. We present crystal structures of S.

Transient tether between the SRP RNA and SRP receptor ensures efficient cargo delivery during cotranslational protein targeting [PDF]
Kinetic control of macromolecular interactions plays key roles in biological regulation. An example of such control occurs in cotranslational protein targeting by the signal recognition particle (SRP), during which the SRP RNA and the cargo both ...
