PIM1 Phosphorylation Regulates Gene Transcription in Prostate Cancer

- Sophie E. RuffNikita VasilyevEvgeny NudlerSusan K. Logan1 more author(s)...
- Description
Previous study showed that PIM1 phosphorylates the androgen receptor (AR), the primary therapeutic target in prostate cancer. This study examined the mechanism how PIM1 phosphorylation of AR alters its transcriptional activity. They identified the AR co-activator, 14-3-3 ζ, as an endogenous PIM1 substrate in LNCaP cells. Rapid immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry of endogenous proteins on chromatin...

- Description
This study performed a chemical genetic screen to identify PIM1 substrates in prostate cancer cells. They identified 25 previously unknown PIM1 substrates and their phosphorylation sites. Among the identified PIM1 substrates, N-Myc Downstream-Regulated Gene 1 (NDRG1) was shown to be as an inhibitor of metastasis. The study demonstrated that PIM1 phosphorylation of NDRG1 reduced its stability, nuclear...

PRC1 Sustains the Integrity of Neural Fate in the Absence of PRC2 Function

- Ayana SawaiSarah PfennigMilica BulajicAlexander Miller3 more author(s)...
- Description
Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs) are known for repressing transcription through histone modifications and chromatin compaction. The PRCs consist of two central protein complexes, PRC1 and PRC2, which are important for normal gene regulation and development. This study found that PRC1 is essential for the specification of segmentally restricted spinal motor neuron subtypes, while PRC2 activity is...

Elongin A Regulates Transcription In Vivo Through Enhanced RNA Polymerase Processivity
- Authors
- Yating WangLiming HouM. Behfar ArdehaliRobert E. Kingston1 more author(s)...
- Description
Elongin, an RNA polymerase II (RNAPII)-associated factor, has shown to stimulate transcriptional elongation in vitro. The Elongin complex is assumed to be required for transcriptional induction in response to cellular stimuli. However, the role of this complex during transcription has not been studied in vivo. This study performed comprehensive studies of the role of Elongin A, the largest subunit...

Genome-Wide Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor-DNA Binding Reveal Tissue-Specific Binding Determinants
- Authors
- David FilipovicWenjie QiOmar KanaDaniel Marri4 more author(s)...
- Description
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor whose ligands include the environmental contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Ligand-activated AhR binds to DNA at dioxin response elements (DREs). Most DREs in accessible chromatin are not bound by TCDD-activated AhR, and DREs accessible in multiple tissues can be bound in some and unbound in others. This...

Single-Cell Transcriptomics Identifies Gadd45b as a Regulator of Herpesvirus-Reactivating Neurons

- Description
Single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) has not been effectively used for exploring the interactions between the host cell and viral pathogens in latently infected cells. Therefore, this study used scRNA‐seq and single‐molecule sensitivity fluorescent in situ hybridization technologies to investigate host single‐cell transcriptome changes upon the reactivation of a human neurotropic virus, herpes simplex...
