Design of Small Interfering RNAs for Antiviral Applications [PDF]
, 2011 RNA interference (RNAi) is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism for sequence-specific target RNA degradation in animals and plants, which plays an essential role in gene regulation. In addition, it is believed to function as a defense against viruses and transposons. In recent years, RNAi has become a widely used approach for studying gene function by

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Functional screening identified PcSyn14890, a cyanobacteria‐specific protein that enhances growth and stress resistance in E. coli and Synechocystis PCC6803. Although we expected it to function as a molecular chaperone, it was unable to protect against thermal aggregation of GAPDH.

Aging Is a Key Driver for Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a classical age‐related hematologic malignancy, and a key driver of AML is aging, which profoundly regulates intrinsic factors such as genomic instability, epigenetic reprogramming, and metabolic dysregulation, and alters bone marrow microenvironment.

Activation of the interferon induction cascade by influenza A viruses requires viral RNA synthesis and nuclear export [PDF]
, 2014 This work is supported by grants from the Wellcome Trust (grants 087751/A/08/Z) and MRC (G1001726/1).We have examined the requirements for virus transcription and replication and thus the roles of input and progeny genomes in the generation of interferon

Mutant NPM1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Initiation and Maintenance
Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.NPM1 mutations drive acute myeloid leukemia by acting as neomorphic transcriptional regulators that cooperate with Menin–MLL and XPO1 to sustain HOX/MEIS1 expression and block differentiation. Targeting these mutant‐specific transcriptional dependencies provides a rational therapeutic strategy for NPM1‐mutated AML.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level
Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...
