Formulation: PBS containing 0.05% BSA, 0.05% Sodium Azide. Store at 4C short term. Aliquot and store at - 20C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Concentration: 0.5 mg/ml Purification: Protein G purified Gene Name: nucleolar protein interacting with the FHA domain of MKI67 Database Link: NP_115766 Entrez Gene 84365 Human Background: NIFK is a nucleolar protein that interacts with Ki67, a protein strongly associated with, and a specific marker of, cell proliferation. The marsupial counterpart of human NIFK was recently identified and suggests that NIFK may be involved in the organization of higher order chromatin structure. NIFK was found to interact with the forkhead associated domain of Ki67 in mitotic cells and the interaction is thought to be phosphorylation-dependent.

Efficacy and Mechanisticv E aluation of Tic10, A Novel Antitumor Agent Abstract TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL; Apo2L) is an endogenous protein that selectively induces apoptosis in cancer cells and is a critical effector in the immune surveillance of cancer. Recombinant TRAIL and TRAIL-agonist antibodies are in clinical trials for the treatment of solid malignancies due to the cancer-specific cytotoxicity of TRAIL. Recombinant TRAIL has a short serum half-life and both recombinant TRAIL and TRAIL receptor agonist antibodies have a limited capacity to perfuse to tissue compartments such as the brain, limiting their efficacy in certain malignancies. To overcome such limitations, we searched for small molecules capable of inducing the TRAIL gene using a high throughput luciferase reporter gene assay. We selected TRAIL-inducing compound 10 (TIC10) for further study based on its induction of TRAIL at the cell surface and its promising therapeutic index. TIC10 is a potent, stable, and orally active antitumor agent that crosses the blood-brain barrier and transcriptionally induces TRAIL and TRAIL-mediated cell death in a p53-independent manner.

Erythroid-specific hypersensitivity regions DNAse-Seq. (A) Structure of the α-globin locus. Chromosomal position (hg38 genome build) is shown above the genes. The locus consists of the embryonic ζ gene (HBZ), the duplicated foetal/adult α genes (HBA2 and HBA1) together with two flanking pseudogenes (HBM and HBQ1). The upstream, widely-expressed gene, NPRL3 is transcribed from the opposite strand to that of the HBA genes and contains the remote regulatory elements of the α-globin locus (MCS -R1 to -R3) (indicated by red dots).
