Interactome analysis brings splicing into focus [PDF]

, 2015
The spliceosome is a huge molecular machine that assembles dynamically onto its pre-mRNA substrates. A new study based on interactome analysis provides clues about how splicing-regulatory proteins modulate assembly of the spliceosome to either activate ...

Structures of the human pre-catalytic spliceosome and its precursor spliceosome [PDF]

Cell Research, 2018
The pre-catalytic spliceosome (B complex) is preceded by its precursor spliceosome (pre-B complex) and followed by the activated spliceosome (Bact complex). The pre-B-to-B and B-to-Bact transitions are driven by the ATPase/helicases Prp28 and Brr2, respectively. In this study, we report the cryo-electron microscopy structures of the human pre-B complex

Tumor‐educated platelets in cancer diagnostics and prognostics: A critical appraisal and roadmap for clinical translation

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Tumor‐educated platelets (TEPs) are emerging as a compelling frontier in liquid biopsy, functioning as dynamic, systemic sensors that sequester and process tumor‐derived biomolecules. This interaction imprints an integrated molecular signature of malignancy—spanning the transcriptome, proteome, lipidome, and crucially, the captured genome ...

Transcription, signaling receptor activity, oxidative phosphorylation, and fatty acid metabolism mediate the presence of closely related species in distinct intertidal and cold-seep habitats [PDF]

, 2015
Bathyal cold seeps are isolated extreme deep-sea environments characterized by low species diversity while biomass can be high. The Hakon Mosby mud volcano (Barents Sea, 1,280 m) is a rather stable chemosynthetic driven habitat characterized by prominent

Adherens junction protein expression is associated with poor response to neoadjuvant FLOT chemotherapy and pro‐inflammatory tumor microenvironment in esophageal adenocarcinoma

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor survival and variable response to perioperative chemotherapy. Although histopathological features correlate with outcomes, the relationship specifically between adherens junction (AJ) protein expression and treatment response in EAC remains uncertain.

The metabolic reprogramming and vulnerability of SF3B1 mutations

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020
Mutations in the splicing factor 3b subunit 1 (SF3B1) gene create a neomorphic protein that disrupts RNA splicing, but the downstream consequences of this missplicing are unclear.

Splicing Players Are Differently Expressed in Sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Molecular Clusters and Brain Regions

Cells, 2020
Splicing is a tightly orchestrated process by which the brain produces protein diversity over time and space. While this process specializes and diversifies neurons, its deregulation may be responsible for their selective degeneration.

Saturation mutagenesis reveals manifold determinants of exon definition. [PDF]

, 2017
To illuminate the extent and roles of exonic sequences in the splicing of human RNA transcripts, we conducted saturation mutagenesis of a 51-nt internal exon in a three-exon minigene.

Data‐Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry in Tumor Classification and Cancer Biomarker Research

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer treatment is far from optimal also because current classification systems do not reflect the complex molecular status of the tumor and its phenotype in sufficient detail. To construct molecular tumor classifiers, omics tools provide complex molecular data reflecting many aspects from genotype to phenotype.

The spliceosome as a new therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive prostate cancer

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020
Alternative splicing (AS) analysis across the entire spectrum of human prostate cancer evolution reveals the unexpected findings that intron retention is a hallmark of stemness and tumor aggressiveness, and androgen receptor controls a splicing program ...
