Therapeutic potential of CDK11 in cancer

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2023
Human cyclin‐dependent kinases (CDKs) direct the progression of the cell cycle and transcription. They are deregulated in tumours, and despite their involvement in the regulation of basic cellular processes, many CDKs are promising targets for cancer ...

Localized inhibition of protein phosphatase 1 by NUAK1 promotes spliceosome activity and reveals a MYC-sensitive feedback control of transcription. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Deregulated expression of MYC induces a dependence on the NUAK1 kinase, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this dependence have not been fully clarified.

Targeted high throughput mutagenesis of the human spliceosome reveals its in vivo operating principles

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
The spliceosome is a staggeringly complex machine comprising, in humans, 5 snRNAs and >150 proteins. We scaled haploid CRISPR-Cas9 base editing to target the entire human spliceosome and interrogated the mutants using the U2 snRNP/SF3b inhibitor ...

Structural basis of branch site recognition by the human spliceosome

open access: yesScience, 2021
Description Intron recognition in the spotlight Excision of noncoding introns from pre–messenger RNAs is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a large RNA-protein complex that recognizes specific sequences at the exon-intron boundaries (splice sites).

Somatic Mutations in Core Spliceosome Components Promote Tumorigenesis and Generate an Exploitable Vulnerability in Human Cancer

open access: yesCancers, 2022
Simple Summary High throughput exome sequencing approaches have disclosed recurrent cancer-associated mutations in spliceosomal components, which drive aberrant pre-mRNA processing events and support the tumor phenotype.

The spliceosome inhibitors isoginkgetin and pladienolide B induce ATF3-dependent cell death.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The spliceosome assembles on pre-mRNA in a stepwise manner through five successive pre-spliceosome complexes. The spliceosome functions to remove introns from pre-mRNAs to generate mature mRNAs that encode functional proteins.

Transcriptome Analysis of the Cerebellum of Mice Fed a Manganese-Deficient Diet

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Manganese (Mn), primarily acquired through diet, is required for brain function and development. Epidemiological studies have found an association between both low and high levels of Mn and impaired neurodevelopment in children.

USP15 regulates dynamic protein-protein interactions of the spliceosome through deubiquitination of PRP31. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Post-translational modifications contribute to the spliceosome dynamics by facilitating the physical rearrangements of the spliceosome. Here, we report USP15, a deubiquitinating enzyme, as a regulator of protein-protein interactions for the spliceosome ...

Intron retention is a hallmark and spliceosome represents a therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The role of dysregulation of mRNA alternative splicing (AS) in the development and progression of solid tumors remains to be defined. Here we describe the first comprehensive AS landscape in the spectrum of human prostate cancer (PCa) evolution.

Human spliceosomal snRNA sequence variants generate variant spliceosomes

open access: yesRNA, 2021
Human pre-mRNA splicing is primarily catalyzed by the major spliceosome, comprising five small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes, U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNPs, each of which contains the corresponding U-rich snRNA. These snRNAs are encoded by large gene families exhibiting significant sequence variation, but it remains unknown if most human snRNA ...
