Multisite dependency of an E3 ligase controls monoubiquitylation-dependent cell fate decisions. [PDF]
Metazoan development depends on tightly regulated gene expression programs that instruct progenitor cells to adopt specialized fates. Recent work found that posttranslational modifications, such as monoubiquitylation, can determine cell fate also ...

Selection signatures of fat tail in sheep [PDF]
The investigation of the genes with a role in lipid metabolism enjoy considerable scientific and commercial interest because of the strong correlations between fat deposition and the risk of cardiovascular disease. The fat tail characteristic of sheep is

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

regSNPs-splicing: a tool for prioritizing synonymous single-nucleotide substitution [PDF]
While synonymous single-nucleotide variants (sSNVs) have largely been unstudied, since they do not alter protein sequence, mounting evidence suggests that they may affect RNA conformation, splicing, and the stability of nascent-mRNAs to promote various ...

Heat Stress Triggers Nuclear Invagination and Spatial Compartmentalization of Protein Metabolism
Cells adapt heat stress to shape a nuclear invagination region function as “protein metabolism hotspots”, where both protein production and degradation are enhanced. ABSTRACT Heat stress is a common challenge for cells, causing multiple types of cellular damage while triggering complex stress responses, including the highly conserved mechanism known as

Alcohol exposure induces chick craniofacial bone defects by negatively affecting cranial neural crest development [PDF]
Excess alcohol consumption during pregnancy could lead to fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS). However, the molecular mechanism leading to craniofacial abnormality, a feature of FAS, is still poorly understood.

The Treacher Collins syndrome (TCOF1) gene product, treacle, is targeted to the nucleolus by signals in its C-terminus [PDF]
The TCOF1 gene product, treacle, responsible for the craniofacial disorder Treacher Collins syndrome, has been predicted to be a member of a class of nucleolar phosphoproteins based on its primary amino acid sequence. Treacle is a low complexity protein with ten repeating units of acidic and basic residues, each of which contains a large number of ...

ABSTRACT Background Treacher Collins Syndrome (TCS) is an uncommon congenital disease of the craniofacial complex. While there are ‘classic’ facial manifestations of TCS, they present with a wide range of variability. Face2Gene (F2G) is a deep‐learning algorithm that can provide differential diagnoses of syndromes via analysis of 2‐dimensional facial ...
