Artificial escape from XCI by DNA methylation editing of the CDKL5 gene. [PDF]

, 2020
A significant number of X-linked genes escape from X chromosome inactivation and are associated with a distinct epigenetic signature. One epigenetic modification that strongly correlates with X-escape is reduced DNA methylation in promoter regions. Here,

Antisense-mediated exon skipping: a therapeutic strategy for titin-based dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2015
Frameshift mutations in the TTN gene encoding titin are a major cause for inherited forms of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a heart disease characterized by ventricular dilatation, systolic dysfunction, and progressive heart failure. To date, there are no

The cooperative regulation of miR‐221 by APE1 and AUF1 impacts p27Kip1 defining a miR signature relevant for cervical cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A regulatory axis involving APE1, AUF1, and miR‐221 is proposed. Pri‐miR‐221 is processed by DROSHA and DICER to generate mature miR‐221, which targets p27Kip1 mRNA. APE1 and AUF1 compete for pre‐miR‐221 binding. Reduced APE1/AUF1 levels impair miR‐221 biogenesis, decrease p27Kip1 mRNA degradation, and promote cell cycle progression, chemoresistance ...

Tuning Relative Polypeptide Expression to Optimize Assembly, Yield and Downstream Processing of Bispecific Antibodies

Antibodies, 2018
Bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) are often composed of several polypeptide chains that have to be expressed adequately to enable optimal assembly and yield of the bsAb.

Analysis of CFTR Folding and Degradation in Transiently Transfected Cells [PDF]

, 2011
Misfolding and premature degradation of F508del-CFTR is the major cause of cystic fibrosis. Components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system function on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum to select misfolded proteins for degradation. The folding status of F508del-CFTR is monitored by at least two ER quality control checkpoints.

Transient and stable transfection in the protozoan parasite Entamoeba invadens [PDF]

Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2012
Entamoeba histolytica is an important human pathogen and a major health problem worldwide. Many aspects of parasite biology can be studied with the exception of stage conversion, which cannot be reproduced adequately in E. histolytica. The reptile parasite Entamoeba invadens is a vital model system for studying stage conversion since it can be induced ...

Anchorage‐independent and faster growth in clonal population from UV‐irradiated NER‐deficient cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UV‐irradiated cells expressing a DDB2 mutant protein unable to interact with PCNA (DDB2PCNA‐) form clones able to grow without anchorage. Different experimental approaches reveal heterogeneity in cell cycle regulation and drug response within these clones, emphasizing the crucial role of the DDB2‐PCNA interaction in preventing cellular transformation ...
