Human FASTK preferentially binds single‐stranded and G‐rich RNA

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Although FASTK is known to play a role in mRNA biology, the mechanism through which it recognizes RNA has yet to be unraveled. Here, we used purified human FASTK to characterize its RNA‐binding properties in vitro. We found that FASTK prefers ssRNA oligonucleotides containing guanines with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes and binds robustly to any ...

Posttranslational modifications of phosphodiesterase type 4 enzymes represent novel points for therapeutic targeting

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Enzymes from the phosphodiesterase type 4 family (PDE4) coordinate physiological events driven by the cyclic AMP s(cAMP) signaling pathway by tightly controlling cAMP dynamics in many cell types. Key to this strict regulation is the myriad of posttranslational modifications that alter PDE4 activity, cellular location, and binding partner selection ...

Unconventional structure and function of PHD domains from additional sex combs‐like proteins

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A plant homeodomain (PHD) at the C terminus of additional sex combs‐like (ASXL) proteins is recurrently truncated in disease. In the current study, the ASXL PHD was shown not to bind histone modifications. Instead, a complex between the ASXL PHD and methyl CpG‐binding domain proteins 5 and 6 (MBD5/6) was investigated.

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 ...
