High‐throughput screening identifies a previously undescribed checkpoint controlling mitotic progression in response to DNA damage

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA damage can cause mitotic delay to allow DNA repair to occur. However, the mechanism underlying this is unclear. Here, we show that in response to cells entering mitosis with DNA damage, SOD1 restrains PP2a activity via oxidation of cysteine residues at the active site. This leads to a reduction in PP2a activity at the mitotic kinetochore, resulting

CRISPR‐Cas9 screen reveals that inhibition of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 sensitizes malignant T cells to dimethyl‐fumarate‐induced cell death

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A genome‐wide CRISPR‐Cas9 screen identified H3K27 methylation as a key regulator of T‐cell lymphoma sensitivity to dimethyl fumarate (DMF). Specifically, inhibition of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) enhanced DMF‐induced cell death in malignant T cells. These results provide functional evidence for the role of EZH2 in modulating drug sensitivity and

Evolutionary divergence and functional insights into the heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferase of Paramecium tetraurelia

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit

TDP‐43 proteinopathies and neurodegeneration: insights from Caenorhabditis elegans models

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The manuscript explores structural and functional features of TDP‐43 and its worm homologue, TDP‐1, highlighting conserved and divergent structural and functional features. Using genetically engineered C. elegans models, key pathological features of TDP‐43 proteinopathies—including aggregation, neurodegeneration, and motor deficits—are recapitulated ...

PU.1 and TGF‐β signaling activate the cell‐surface expression of CD103 in mast cells and dendritic cells: opposite roles of GATA2 in the expression of mucosal mast cell genes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Mucosal mast cells (MMCs) are distinguished from connective tissue MCs by the specific cell‐surface expression of integrin CD103 (αE/β7) and proteases Mcpt1 and Mcpt2. Expression of the Itgae gene (encoding αE) in MMCs is positively regulated by PU.1 and TGF‐β signaling.
