Integration of a pancreatic eQTL map with a GWAS meta‐analysis identifies 82 putative functional variants and 15 genes. The association between rs11102484 and pancreatic cancer risk is observed in a total of 5699 cases and 8467 controls. The G allele of rs11102484 weakens ZNF263 binding and the silencer‐promoter interaction, thereby increasing ST7L ...

The Edc3-Upf1 interaction is not a negative regulator of NMD.
(A) NMD of the PTC-containing galactose-inducible reporter transcript, gal-PGK1c142, was assessed in a upf1Δ upf2Δ double deletion strain containing either empty vector, Upf1 wild-type, Upf1 mutant 3, Upf1 mutant 18, Upf1 mutant 23, Upf1 mutant 24, or ...

SUMMARY The increasing global prevalence of droughts due to climate change poses a major threat to food security, necessitating the development of drought‐tolerant crops. To respond appropriately to environmental perturbations, plants undergo widespread transcriptional reprogramming at both the gene expression and splicing levels. Differential splicing

A: Upf1 protein structure (2gjk) where all known motifs of the family appear in distinguished colors together with their extensions (in red), one new motif (green, named NEWB) and two more coevolving residues (yellow, named COEVA and COEVB), not know to ...

The mechanisms dictating whether a cell proliferates or differentiates have undergone intense scrutiny, but they remain poorly understood. Here, we report that UPF1, a central component in the nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) pathway, plays a key role ...

Metamorphosis and lncRNAs: A Close Relationship
ABSTRACT The classical definition of metamorphosis is a post‐embryonic transformation, such as from a tadpole to a froglet. However, recent studies suggest this process occurs to some degree in all vertebrates, as the underlying endocrine and molecular pathways are highly conserved. With the advent of high‐throughput sequencing, transcriptomic data for

Toxic mechanisms of amyloid oligomers and therapeutic strategies
Abstract Amyloid oligomers are increasingly recognized as the major toxic contributors across protein‐misfolding disorders. In this review, we cover mechanistic evidence showing how these transient and structurally heterogeneous oligomers disrupt cellular homeostasis by: (i) permeabilizing lipid membranes and forming ion‐conducting pores; (ii ...

Degradation of Gadd45 mRNA by nonsense-mediated decay is essential for viability
The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway functions to degrade both abnormal and wild-type mRNAs. NMD is essential for viability in most organisms, but the molecular basis for this requirement is unknown.

Heat shock induces Arc/Arg3.1 Cys34‐Cys159 disulfide crosslinking, promoting oligomerization and Hsp70‐CHIP‐dependent ubiquitination followed by proteasomal degradation during recovery. Disrupting disulfide formation (C159A) impairs CHIP‐mediated ubiquitination and stabilizes Arc/Arg3.1, whereas HSF1 loss limits inducible Hsp70 and leads to Arc ...
