Constitutive Scaffolding of Multiple Wnt Enhanceosome Components By
RESEARCH ARTICLE Constitutive scaffolding of multiple Wnt enhanceosome components by Legless/ BCL9 Laurens M van Tienen, Juliusz Mieszczanek, Marc Fiedler, Trevor J Rutherford, Mariann Bienz* MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract Wnt/b-catenin signaling elicits context-dependent transcription switches that determine normal development and oncogenesis. These are mediated by the Wnt enhanceosome, a multiprotein complex binding to the Pygo chromatin reader and acting through TCF/LEF- responsive enhancers. Pygo renders this complex Wnt-responsive, by capturing b-catenin via the Legless/BCL9 adaptor. We used CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering of Drosophila legless (lgs) and human BCL9 and B9L to show that the C-terminus downstream of their adaptor elements is crucial for Wnt responses. BioID proximity labeling revealed that BCL9 and B9L, like PYGO2, are constitutive components of the Wnt enhanceosome. Wnt-dependent docking of b-catenin to the enhanceosome apparently causes a rearrangement that apposes the BCL9/B9L C-terminus to TCF. This C-terminus binds to the Groucho/TLE co-repressor, and also to the Chip/LDB1-SSDP enhanceosome core complex via an evolutionary conserved element. An unexpected link between BCL9/B9L, PYGO2 and nuclear co-receptor complexes suggests that these b-catenin co-factors may coordinate Wnt and nuclear hormone responses.

Box 218, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598 Contributed by Leroy E. Hood, August 21, 2007 (sent for review January 7, 2007) Transcription factors play a key role in integrating and modulating system. In this model system, we activated peripheral-blood-derived biological information. In this study, we comprehensively measured mononuclear cells, which can be loosely termed ‘‘macrophages,’’ the changing abundances of mRNAs over a time course of activation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We focused on the precise mea- of human peripheral-blood-derived mononuclear cells (‘‘macro- surement of mRNA concentrations. There is currently no high- phages’’) with lipopolysaccharide. Global and dynamic analysis of throughput technology that can precisely and sensitively measure all transcription factors in response to a physiological stimulus has yet to mRNAs in a system, although such technologies are likely to be be achieved in a human system, and our efforts significantly available in the near future. To demonstrate the potential utility of advanced this goal. We used multiple global high-throughput tech- such technologies, and to motivate their development and encour- nologies for measuring mRNA levels, including massively parallel age their use, we produced data from a combination of two distinct signature sequencing and GeneChip microarrays. -

ONCOPANEL (Popv3)
ONCOPANEL (POPv3) TEST INFORMATION BACKGROUND: Somatic genetic alterations in oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes contribute to the pathogenesis and evolution of human cancers. These alterations can provide prognostic and predictive information and stratify cancers for targeted therapeutic information. We classify these alterations into five tiers using the following guidelines: Tier 1: The alteration has well-established published evidence confirming clinical utility in this tumor type, in at least one of the following contexts: predicting response to treatment with an FDA-approved therapy; assessing prognosis; establishing a definitive diagnosis; or conferring an inherited increased risk of cancer to this patient and family. Tier 2: The alteration may have clinical utility in at least one of the following contexts: selection of an investigational therapy in clinical trials for this cancer type; limited evidence of prognostic association; supportive of a specific diagnosis; proven association of response to treatment with an FDA-approved therapy in a different type of cancer; or similar to a different mutation with a proven association with response to treatment with an FDA-approved therapyin this type of cancer. Tier 3: The alteration is of uncertain clinical utility, but may have a role as suggested by at least one of the following: demonstration of association with response to treatment in this cancer type in preclinical studies (e.g., in vitro studies or animal models); alteration in a biochemical pathway that has other known, therapeutically-targetable alterations; alteration in a highly conserved region of the protein predicted, in silico, to alter protein function; or selection of an investigational therapy for a different cancer type. -

A SARS-Cov-2-Human Protein-Protein Interaction Map Reveals Drug Targets and Potential Drug-Repurposing
A SARS-CoV-2-Human Protein-Protein Interaction Map Reveals Drug Targets and Potential Drug-Repurposing Supplementary Information Supplementary Discussion All SARS-CoV-2 protein and gene functions described in the subnetwork appendices, including the text below and the text found in the individual bait subnetworks, are based on the functions of homologous genes from other coronavirus species. These are mainly from SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, but when available and applicable other related viruses were used to provide insight into function. The SARS-CoV-2 proteins and genes listed here were designed and researched based on the gene alignments provided by Chan et. al. 1 2020 . Though we are reasonably sure the genes here are well annotated, we want to note that not every protein has been verified to be expressed or functional during SARS-CoV-2 infections, either in vitro or in vivo. In an effort to be as comprehensive and transparent as possible, we are reporting the sub-networks of these functionally unverified proteins along with the other SARS-CoV-2 proteins. In such cases, we have made notes within the text below, and on the corresponding subnetwork figures, and would advise that more caution be taken when examining these proteins and their molecular interactions. Due to practical limits in our sample preparation and data collection process, we were unable to generate data for proteins corresponding to Nsp3, Orf7b, and Nsp16. Therefore these three genes have been left out of the following literature review of the SARS-CoV-2 proteins and the protein-protein interactions (PPIs) identified in this study. -
