Detecting homologous recombination deficiency for breast cancer through integrative analysis of genomic data

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study develops a semi‐supervised classifier integrating multi‐genomic data (1404 training/5893 validation samples) to improve homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) detection in breast cancer. Our method demonstrates prognostic value and predicts chemotherapy/PARP inhibitor sensitivity in HRD+ tumours.

Promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II: a nexus of gene regulation

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2019
In this review, Core et al. discuss the recent advances in our understanding of the early steps in Pol II transcription, highlighting the events and factors involved in the establishment and release of paused Pol II.

Structure of a transcribing RNA polymerase II–U1 snRNP complex

open access: yesScience, 2020
A tight couple makes messenger RNAs Gene expression in eukaryotes first requires transcription of DNA to an RNA copy and then splicing to form the final, processed messenger RNA (mRNA). Zhang et al.

The anticancer effect of the HDAC inhibitor belinostat is enhanced by inhibitors of Bcl‐xL or Mcl‐1 in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The pan‐HDAC inhibitor belinostat increases the expression of the pro‐apoptotic proteins Bim, Puma, and Noxa and induces apoptosis in ovarian cancer cell lines and patient‐derived tumor organoids when used at high concentrations. Moreover, inhibiting the anti‐apoptotic proteins Bcl‐xL or Mcl‐1 sensitizes these preclinical models to the cytotoxic effect

Live-cell analysis of endogenous GFP-RPB1 uncovers rapid turnover of initiating and promoter-paused RNA Polymerase II

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018

Transient pausing by RNA polymerase II [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) elongation control is utilized during transcription of most metazoan genes (1). Polymerases that successfully initiate must first break contacts with initiation factors and then interact with elongation factors including the DRB sensitivity-inducing factor (DSIF) and the negative elongation factor (NELF).

A high-throughput screen identifies that CDK7 activates glucose consumption in lung cancer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Elevated glucose consumption is fundamental to cancer, but selectively targeting this pathway is challenging. We develop a high-throughput assay for measuring glucose consumption and use it to screen non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines against ...

RNA polymerase II stalling promotes nucleosome occlusion and pTEFb recruitment to drive immortalization by Epstein-Barr virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) immortalizes resting B-cells and is a key etiologic agent in the development of numerous cancers. The essential EBV-encoded protein EBNA 2 activates the viral C promoter (Cp) producing a message of ~120 kb that is differentially ...

Dose‐dependent induction of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in 3D melanoma models by non‐thermal plasma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Non‐thermal plasma treatment of melanoma cells induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a dose‐dependent fashion. This report highlights the critical need to further investigate potential adverse effects of non‐thermal plasma for cancer therapy and to optimize treatment parameters for clinical translation. Despite the promising results of non‐
