Mammalian Genome Recombineering: Yeast, Still a Helper Microorganism of Choice?

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2008
Functional studies of complex mammalian genomes have been revolutionized by the development of the recombineering methodology. Recombineering represents the sum of in vivo recombinant DNA techniques used for the production and manipulation of targeting ...

Regulators of ribonucleotide reductase inhibit Ty1 mobility in saccharomyces cerevisiae

Mobile DNA, 2010
Background Ty1 is a long terminal repeat retrotransposon of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with a replication cycle similar to retrovirus replication. Structurally, Ty1 contains long terminal repeat (LTR) regions flanking the gag and pol genes that encode for

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Phosphorylation events surrounding the DNA damage response in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]

, 2007
Protein phosphorylation mediated by checkpoint kinases is crucial for the cellular response to DNA damage. The sensor kinases Mec1 and Tel1 initiate the checkpoint signaling cascade by directly activating the checkpoint effector kinase Rad53.

Wee1 kinase differentially regulates maize CDKA2;1a and CDKB1;1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In eukaryotes, Wee1 kinase inhibits the kinase activity of CDK/Cyc complexes through phosphorylation of a conserved residue in the CDK moiety. Wee1 is also present in plants, but has been scarcely studied. We have studied maize Wee1 regulation of CDKA/CycD2;2a or CDKB/CycD2;2a complexes.

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.

Blocking protein quality control degradation leads to structural stabilization of DHFR indel variants

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Blocking protein quality control degradation by deleting the E3 ligases Ubr1 or San1 stabilizes many DHFR insertion and deletion variants that are otherwise partially unfolded. These hypomorphic variants regain folding at lower temperatures or upon methotrexate binding, revealing that PQC degradation can remove proteins that are still functionally ...

Human APOBEC3G suppresses homologous recombination and LIG4‐independent end joining in DNA double‐strand break repair

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Chromosomal DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs) are repaired by homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). Recent work has additionally established theta‐mediated end‐joining (TMEJ) as a mechanism for DSB joining. Cells lacking NHEJ and TMEJ can repair DSBs in a homology‐dependent manner.

Functional and transcriptomic analyses in Neurospora crassa reveal a crucial role for the N‐glycoprotein deglycosylation process in fungal homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

The trimeric Shu complex in C. elegans is an ATPase that remodels RAD51 filaments in the homologous recombination‐associated DNA damage response

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The C. elegans Shu complex (RFS‐1/RIP‐1/SWS‐1) is a DNA‐dependent ATPase that regulates RAD‐51 filaments during homologous recombination. The trimer preferentially binds 5′‐exposed DNA, remodels RAD‐51 filaments via ATP hydrolysis, and stabilizes filaments through ATP binding.
