TAF1 bromodomain inhibition as a candidate epigenetic driver of congenital heart disease
Heart formation requires transcriptional regulators that underlie congenital anomalies and the fetal gene program activated during heart failure. Attributing the effects of congenital heart disease (CHD) missense variants to disruption of specific protein domains allows for a mechanistic understanding of CHDs and improved diagnostics.

Abstract Background Anticholinergic medications and botulinum neurotoxin injections are established treatments for dystonia, yet they carry potential side effects and practical challenges. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is offered in case of poor response to these approaches.

Combinatorial readout of histone post-translational modifications by tandem reader modules mediates crosstalk among different histone modifications. To identify the domain-specific interactome of the tandem reader, we engineered the dual bromodomain of ...

Clinicopathological Phenotype and Genetics of X-Linked Dystonia–Parkinsonism (XDP; DYT3; Lubag)
X-linked dystonia–parkinsonism (XDP; OMIM314250), also referred to as DYT3 dystonia or “Lubag” disease, was first described as an endemic disease in the Philippine island of Panay.

LAG‐3+ regulatory T cells suppress the effector but not the proliferative response of naïve cognate antigen‐specific CD4+ T cells in vivo. The suppressed T cells display upregulation of immune checkpoints and downregulation of pro‐inflammatory pathways with enhanced TCR signaling and reduced oxidative metabolism.

This study presents the first pan‐transposable element (TE) atlas in rapeseed, profiling over 8 million TEs across 2311 accessions. Integrative analyses reveal that TEs broadly shape gene expression through diverse regulatory mechanisms, with key insertions in BnaA03.FLC and BnaA09.CYP78A9 linked to flowering time and silique development.

Therapeutic potential of TAF1 bromodomains for cancer treatment
ABSTRACT The discovery of the antiproliferative effects of BRD4 bromodomain inhibitors prompted us to investigate additional bromodomains that might be involved in supporting cellular proliferation. TAF1 is a general transcription factor with two bromodomains that is likely to play important roles in cell viability by supporting ...

Activation of a DNA Damage Checkpoint Response in a TAF1-Defective Cell Line [PDF]
Although the link between transcription and DNA repair is well established, defects in the core transcriptional complex itself have not been shown to elicit a DNA damage response. Here we show that a cell line with a temperature-sensitive defect in TBP-associated factor 1 (TAF1), a component of the TFIID general transcription complex, exhibits ...

General transcription factor TFIID is a key component of RNA polymerase II transcription initiation. Human TFIID is a megadalton-sized complex comprising TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 13 TBP-associated factors (TAFs).

Rare but Relevant? Assessing Variants in Dystonia‐Linked Genes in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Dystonia and Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibit clinical and genetic overlap, but the relevance of dystonia gene variants in PD remains unclear. Objective The aim was to assess the frequency of dystonia‐linked pathogenic variants in PD.
