Leukemia-Associated Mutations in Nucleophosmin Alter Recognition by CRM1: Molecular Basis of Aberrant Transport
(Public Library of Science, 2015-06-19)
Nucleophosmin (NPM) is a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein, normally enriched in nucleoli, that performs several activities related to cell growth. NPM mutations are characteristic of a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia ...
PAnalyzer: A software tool for protein inference in shotgun proteomics
(BioMed Central, 2012-11-05)
Background
Protein inference from peptide identifications in shotgun proteomics must deal with ambiguities that arise due to the presence of peptides shared between different proteins, which is common in higher eukaryotes. ...
The Expanded mtDNA Phylogeny of the Franco-Cantabrian Region Upholds the Pre-Neolithic Genetic Substrate of Basques
(Public Library of Science, 2013-07-03)
The European genetic landscape has been shaped by several human migrations occurred since Paleolithic times. The accumulation of archaeological records and the concordance of different lines of genetic evidence during the ...
An E2F7-Dependent Transcriptional Program Modulates DNA Damage Repair And Genomic Stability
(Oxford University Press, 2018-05-18)
The cellular response to DNA damage is essential for maintaining the integrity of the genome. Recent evidence has identified E2F7 as a key player in DNA damage-dependent transcriptional regulation of cell-cycle genes. ...
Transcription Factor Binding Site Enrichment Analysis In Co-Expression Modules In Celiac Disease
(MDPI, 2018-05-10)
The aim of this study was to construct celiac co-expression patterns at a whole genome level and to identify transcription factors (TFs) that could drive the gliadin-related changes in coordination of gene expression ...
MAGI2 Gene Region and Celiac Disease
(Frontiers Media, 2019-12-19)
Celiac disease (CD) patients present a loss of intestinal barrier function due to structural alterations in the tight junction (TJ) network, the most apical unions between epithelial cells. The association of TJ-related ...
A novel RT-QPCR-based assay for the relative quantification of residue specific m6A RNA methylation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-12)
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common and abundant RNA modification. Recent studies have shown its importance in the regulation of several biological processes, including the immune response, and different approaches ...
Using a Simple Cellular Assay to Map NES Motifs in Cancer-Related Proteins, Gain Insight into CRM1-Mediated NES Export, and Search for NES-Harboring Micropeptides
(MDPI, 2020-09-01)
The nuclear export receptor CRM1 (XPO1) recognizes and binds specific sequence motifs termed nuclear export signals (NESs) in cargo proteins. About 200 NES motifs have been identified, but over a thousand human proteins ...
Implication of m6A mRNA Methylation in Susceptibility to Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(MDPI, 2020-08-03)
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract that develops due to the interaction between genetic and environmental factors. More than 160 loci have been associated ...
SPANX-A/D protein subfamily plays a key role in nuclear organisation, metabolism and flagellar motility of human spermatozoa
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-03-27)
Human sperm protein associated with the nucleus on the X chromosome (SPANX) genes encode a protein family (SPANX-A, -B, -C and -D), whose expression is limited to the testis and spermatozoa in normal tissues and to a wide ...
