Summary Condensin complexes compact and disentangle chromosomes in preparation for cell division. Commercially available antibodies raised against condensin subunits have been widely used to characterise their cellular interactome. Here we have assessed the specificity of a polyclonal antibody (Bethyl A302- 276A) that is commonly used as a probe for NCAPH2, the kleisin subunit of condensin II, in mammalian cells. We find that, in addition to its intended target, this antibody cross-reacts with one or more components of the SWI/SNF family of chromatin remodelling complexes in an NCAPH2- independent manner. This cross-reactivity with an abundant chromatin- associated factor is likely to affect the interpretation of protein and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments that make use of this antibody probe. -

Down Regulation of Membrane-Bound Neu3 Constitutes a New

In this respect, it regulates pivotal cell surface events, including trans-membrane signaling, and plays an essential role in carcinogenesis. In this report, we demonstrated that acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lymphoblasts (primary cells from patients and cell lines) are characterized by a marked down-regulation of Neu3 in terms of both gene expression (230 to 40%) and enzymatic activity toward ganglioside GD1a (225.6 to 30.6%), when compared with cells from healthy controls. Induced overexpression of Neu3 in the ALL-cell line, MOLT-4, led to a significant increase of ceramide (166%) and to a parallel decrease of lactosylceramide (255%). These events strongly guided lymphoblasts to apoptosis, as we assessed by the decrease in Bcl2/ Bax ratio, the accumulation of Neu3 transfected cells in the sub G0–G1 phase of the cell cycle, the enhanced annexin-V positivity, the higher cleavage of procaspase-3. -
Recent Advances in Drosophila Models of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Recent Advances in Drosophila Models of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Fukiko Kitani-Morii 1,2,* and Yu-ichi Noto 2 1 Department of Molecular Pathobiology of Brain Disease, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto 6028566, Japan 2 Department of Neurology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto 6028566, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-75-251-5793 Received: 31 August 2020; Accepted: 6 October 2020; Published: 8 October 2020 Abstract: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is one of the most common inherited peripheral neuropathies. CMT patients typically show slowly progressive muscle weakness and sensory loss in a distal dominant pattern in childhood. The diagnosis of CMT is based on clinical symptoms, electrophysiological examinations, and genetic testing. Advances in genetic testing technology have revealed the genetic heterogeneity of CMT; more than 100 genes containing the disease causative mutations have been identified. Because a single genetic alteration in CMT leads to progressive neurodegeneration, studies of CMT patients and their respective models revealed the genotype-phenotype relationships of targeted genes. Conventionally, rodents and cell lines have often been used to study the pathogenesis of CMT. Recently, Drosophila has also attracted attention as a CMT model. In this review, we outline the clinical characteristics of CMT, describe the advantages and disadvantages of using Drosophila in CMT studies, and introduce recent advances in CMT research that successfully applied the use of Drosophila, in areas such as molecules associated with mitochondria, endosomes/lysosomes, transfer RNA, axonal transport, and glucose metabolism. -

However, it is not uncommon that the studied experimental factor is a quantitative variable rather than categorical variable. Loss of information would occur by comparing gene-expression levels between groups that are factitiously defined according to the quantitative threshold values of an experimental factor. Additionally, lack of control for some sensitive clinical factors may bring serious false positive or negative findings. In the present study, we described a bootstrap-based regression method for analyzing gene expression data from the non-categorical microarray experiments. -
DEAD-Box RNA Helicases in Cell Cycle Control and Clinical Therapy
cells Review DEAD-Box RNA Helicases in Cell Cycle Control and Clinical Therapy Lu Zhang 1,2 and Xiaogang Li 2,3,* 1 Department of Nephrology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan 430060, China; [email protected] 2 Department of Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic, 200 1st Street, SW, Rochester, MN 55905, USA 3 Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Clinic, 200 1st Street, SW, Rochester, MN 55905, USA * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-507-266-0110 Abstract: Cell cycle is regulated through numerous signaling pathways that determine whether cells will proliferate, remain quiescent, arrest, or undergo apoptosis. Abnormal cell cycle regula- tion has been linked to many diseases. Thus, there is an urgent need to understand the diverse molecular mechanisms of how the cell cycle is controlled. RNA helicases constitute a large family of proteins with functions in all aspects of RNA metabolism, including unwinding or annealing of RNA molecules to regulate pre-mRNA, rRNA and miRNA processing, clamping protein complexes on RNA, or remodeling ribonucleoprotein complexes, to regulate gene expression. RNA helicases also regulate the activity of specific proteins through direct interaction. Abnormal expression of RNA helicases has been associated with different diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, aging, and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) via regulation of a diverse range of cellular processes such as cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. Recent studies showed that RNA helicases participate in the regulation of the cell cycle progression at each cell cycle phase, including G1-S transition, S phase, G2-M transition, mitosis, and cytokinesis. -

Page 1/22 Abstract Background Although the rapid development of diagnosis and treatment has improved prognosis in early breast cancer, challenges from different therapy response remain due to breast cancer heterogeneity. DEAD-box helicase 27 (DDX27) had been proved to inuence ribosome biogenesis and identied as a promoter in gastric and colorectal cancer associated with stem cell-like properties, while the impact of DDX27 on breast cancer prognosis and biological functions is unclear. We aimed to explore the inuence of DDX27 on stem cell-like properties and prognosis in breast cancer. Methods The expression of DDX27 was evaluated in 24 pairs of fresh breast cancer and normal tissue by western blot.
