Nuclear gene proximity and protein interactions shape transcript covariations in mammalian single cells.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-10-28)
Single-cell RNA sequencing studies on gene co-expression patterns could yield important regulatory and functional insights, but have so far been limited by the confounding effects of differentiation and cell cycle. We apply ...
Structure of a nucleosome-bound MuvB transcription factor complex reveals DNA remodelling.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-08-29)
Genes encoding the core cell cycle machinery are transcriptionally regulated by the MuvB family of protein complexes in a cell cycle-specific manner. Complexes of MuvB with the transcription factors B-MYB and FOXM1 activate ...
Mutations in Epigenetic Regulation Genes Are a Major Cause of Overgrowth with Intellectual Disability.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-05-04)
To explore the genetic architecture of human overgrowth syndromes and human growth control, we performed experimental and bioinformatic analyses of 710 individuals with overgrowth (height and/or head circumference ≥+2 SD) ...
Requirement for PBAF in transcriptional repression and repair at DNA breaks in actively transcribed regions of chromatin.
(CELL PRESS, 2014-09-04)
Actively transcribed regions of the genome are vulnerable to genomic instability. Recently, it was discovered that transcription is repressed in response to neighboring DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). It is not known ...
BAF180 promotes cohesion and prevents genome instability and aneuploidy.
(CELL PRESS, 2014-03-27)
BAF180, a subunit of the PBAF chromatin remodeling complex, is frequently mutated in cancer. Although PBAF regulates transcription, it remains unclear whether this is what drives tumorigenesis in cells lacking BAF180. Based ...
Structural Basis for Auto-Inhibition of the NDR1 Kinase Domain by an Atypically Long Activation Segment.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-08-07)
The human NDR family kinases control diverse aspects of cell growth, and are regulated through phosphorylation and association with scaffolds such as MOB1. Here, we report the crystal structure of the human NDR1 kinase ...
TOPBP1 recruits TOP2A to ultra-fine anaphase bridges to aid in their resolution.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-03-12)
During mitosis, sister chromatids must be faithfully segregated to ensure that daughter cells receive one copy of each chromosome. However, following replication they often remain entangled. Topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) has ...
Improving GENCODE reference gene annotation using a high-stringency proteogenomics workflow.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-06-02)
Complete annotation of the human genome is indispensable for medical research. The GENCODE consortium strives to provide this, augmenting computational and experimental evidence with manual annotation. The rapidly developing ...
Beta 1-integrin-c-Met cooperation reveals an inside-in survival signalling on autophagy-related endomembranes.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-06-23)
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and integrins cooperate to stimulate cell migration and tumour metastasis. Here we report that an integrin influences signalling of an RTK, c-Met, from inside the cell, to promote ...
A novel role for NUPR1 in the keratinocyte stress response to UV oxidized phospholipids.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-01-01)
Ultraviolet light is the dominant environmental oxidative skin stressor and a major skin aging factor. We studied which oxidized phospholipid (OxPL) mediators would be generated in primary human keratinocytes (KC) upon ...
