Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We show that emergence of castration‐resistant prostate (CRPC) is associated with significant upregulation of cyclins that positively regulate cyclin‐dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and concomitant downregulation of CDK4 cyclins. This renders CRPC cells dependent on the high activity of CDK2, and CDK2 inhibitors synergistically sensitize CRPC cells to both ...

RNA interference, growth and differentiation appear normal in African trypanosomes lacking Tudor staphylococcal nuclease. [PDF]
, 2010 Ribonucleases play important roles in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The Dicer endonuclease converts double-stranded (ds)RNA into small interfering (si)RNA and the Slicer endonuclease, as a component of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC ...

siRNA. A guide for RNA silencing.
Chemistry & biology, 2003 RNAi is routinely used to eliminate gene activity for experimental purposes. However, the precise molecular mechanism of RNAi is unknown. Recent papers partially illuminate this mechanism in human cells, advancing the potential application of RNAi toward the treatment of human disease.

Silencing viruses by RNA interference
Microbes and Infection, 2005 Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) makes possible new approaches for studying the various steps of the viral cycle. Plus-strand RNA viruses appear to be attractive targets for small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), as their genome functions as both mRNA and replication template. PTGS creates an alternative to classic reverse genetics for viruses with

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Efficient cloning system for construction of gene silencing vectors in Aspergillus niger [PDF]
, 2008 An approach based on Gateway recombination technology to efficiently construct silencing vectors was developed for use in the biotechnologically important fungus Aspergillus niger. The transcription activator of xylanolytic and cellulolytic genes XlnR of

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

Manipulation of plant host susceptibility: an emerging role for viral movement proteins?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012 Viruses encode Viral Suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) to counteract RNA silencing, a major antiviral defense response in plants. Recent studies indicate a role of virus-derived siRNAs in manipulating the expression of specific host genes and that ...
