Identification of a novel Wee1 isoform
We have identified a novel isoform of Wee1 kinase (Wee1i), which uses Met215 of Wee1 as its initiation codon. RT-PCR, Western blot, and in situ hybridization verified wee1i expression in mammalian cells, rat brain, and rat thymus.

Drosophila Wee1 Kinase Regulates Cdk1 and Mitotic Entry during Embryogenesis [PDF]
Cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) are the central regulators of the cell division cycle. Inhibitors of Cdks ensure proper coordination of cell cycle events and help regulate cell proliferation in the context of tissues and organs.

WEE1 inhibitors trigger GCN2-mediated activation of the integrated stress response
The WEE1 kinase negatively regulates CDK1/2 to control DNA replication and mitotic entry. Genetic factors that determine sensitivity to WEE1 inhibitors (WEE1i) are largely unknown.

The clinical effect of KRAS G12C inhibitors (G12Ci) as monotherapy is poor, prompting the development of combination treatment strategies. Here, we demonstrate that the WEE1 kinase inhibitor (WEE1i), Adavosertib, can sensitize the effect of G12Ci through

High WEE1 expression is independently linked to poor survival in multiple myeloma
Current prognostic scores in multiple myeloma (MM) currently rely on disease burden and a limited set of genomic alterations. Some studies have suggested gene expression panels may predict clinical outcomes, but none are presently utilized in clinical ...
