The Long and Short of siRNAs [PDF]
A recent work identifies a distinct class of siRNAs derived from transgenes and endogenous retroelements in plants (Hamilton et al., 2002). This class has slower electrophoretic mobility than previously characterized siRNAs and may play an important role in transgene-induced systemic silencing and in methylation of endogenous retroelement DNA.

Loss of NAPRT promotes lung tumor initiation and growth through a noncanonical mechanism, independent of its role in NAD+ biosynthesis. Mechanistically, NAPRT depletion activates the mTORC2‐driven AKT/β‐catenin signaling axis to enhance clonogenic and invasive phenotypes. Furthermore, lung‐specific Naprt deletion significantly increases tumor burden in

In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

RNA modifications in mammals: from basic research to biotechnological application [PDF]
RNA, a crucial molecule in protein synthesis and gene expression regulation, plays an essential role in organisms. RNA modifications, acting as epigenetic marks, subtly adjust the structure, stability, and function of RNA, thereby regulating gene ...

The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.

Epigenetic regulation as a promising tool for treatment of atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is one of the leading causes of death from cardiovascular disease (CVD) that primarily involves mid size and large arteries. Atherosclerosis is associated with disruption of lipid metabolism and chronic inflammatory processes.

Mutant p53R273H disrupts PDPK1 homodimerization and contributes to PDPK1 activation
How mutant p53R273H drives AKT signaling is unclear. We show that p53R273H, but not wild‐type, directly binds PDPK1 via a mutation‐dependent conformational change. This interaction disrupts inhibitory PDPK1 homodimerization and enhances AKT phosphorylation.

Molecular genetic analysis of siRNA biogenesis and function in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
In diverse eukaryotes, small RNA products of Dicer-like (DCL) proteins regulate mRNA stability or translation, and direct chromatin modifications to genomic regions, phenomena collectively known as RNA silencing.
