The Multifunctional Role of SPANX-A/D Protein Subfamily in the Promotion of Pro-Tumoural Processes in Human Melanoma
(Nature, 2021-02-11)
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 various ...
Identification of substrates for human deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs): An up-to-date review and a case study for neurodevelopmental disorders
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Similar to the reversal of kinase-mediated protein phosphorylation by phosphatases, deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) oppose the action of E3 ubiquitin ligases and reverse the ubiquitination of proteins. A total of 99 human ...
A global survey of CRM1-dependent nuclear export sequences in the human deubiquitinase family
(Portland Press LTD, 2012-01-01)
The mechanisms that regulate the nucleocytoplasmic localization of human deubiquitinases remain largely unknown. The nuclear export receptor CRM1 binds to specific amino acid motifs termed NESs (nuclear export sequences). ...
Celiac Diasease-associated lncRNA Named HCG14 Regulates NOD1 Expression in Intestinal Cells
(Wiley, 2018-08-01)
Objective:
The aim of the study is to identify additional celiac disease associated loci in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) independent from classical HLA risk alleles (HLA-DR3-DQ2) and to characterize their ...
A cellular reporter to evaluate CRM1 nuclear export activity: functional analysis of the cancer-related mutant E571K
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG, 2016-12)
The exportin CRM1 binds nuclear export signals (NESs), and mediates active transport of NES-bearing proteins from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Structural and biochemical analyses have uncovered the molecular mechanisms ...
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 ...
A long non-coding RNA that harbors a SNP associated with type 2 diabetes regulates the expression of TGM2 gene in pancreatic beta cells
(Frontiers Media, 2023-02)
IntroductionMost of the disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) lie in non- coding regions of the human genome. Many of these variants have been predicted to impact the expression and function of long ...
LncRNA ARGI Contributes to Virus-Induced Pancreatic β Cell Inflammation Through Transcriptional Activation of IFN-Stimulated Genes
(Wiley, 2023-09)
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a complex autoimmune disease that develops in genetically susceptible individuals. Most T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are located in non-coding regions of the human genome. ...
Improving the mechanical and biological functions of cell sheet constructs: The interplay of human-derived periodontal ligament stem cells, endothelial cells and plasma rich in growth factors
(Elsevier, 2024-05)
Objective
The aim of this study was to produce and characterize triple-layered cell sheet constructs with varying cell compositions combined or not with the fibrin membrane scaffold obtained by the technology of Plasma ...
Systematic review of the potential of MicroRNAs in the management of patients with follicular lymphoma
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the second most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma and usually presents as an indolent disease. However, some patients present poor outcomes, and FL can transform into more aggressive lymphomas, such ...
