We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

PTEN gene is considered one of the most mutated tumor suppressor genes in human cancer, and it’s likely to become the first one in the near future. Since 1997, its involvement in tumor suppression has smoothly increased, up to the current importance. Germline mutations of PTEN cause the PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS), which include the past-called Cowden, Bannayan- Riley-Ruvalcaba, Proteus, Proteus-like, and Lhermitte-Duclos syndromes. Somatic mutations of PTEN have been observed in glioblastoma, prostate cancer, and brest cancer cell lines, quoting only the first tissues where the involvement has been proven. The negative regulation of cell interactions with the extracellular matrix could be the way PTEN phosphatase acts as a tumor suppressor. PTEN gene plays an essential role in human development. A recent model sees PTEN function as a stepwise gradation, which can be impaired not only by heterozygous mutations and homozygous losses, but also by other molecular mechanisms, such as transcriptional regression, epigenetic silencing, regulation by microRNAs, posttranslational modification, and aberrant localization.

Kandasamy ([email protected]) Abstract Dual specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) have a well-known role as regulators of the immune response through the modulation of mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs). Yet the precise interplay between the various members of the DUSP family with protein kinases is not well understood. Recent multi-omics studies characterizing the transcriptomes and proteomes of immune cells have provided snapshots of molecular mechanisms underlying innate immune response in unprecedented detail. In this study, we focused on deciphering the interplay between members of the DUSP family with protein kinases in immune cells using publicly available omics datasets. Our analysis resulted in the identification of potential DUSP- mediated hub proteins including MAPK7, MAPK8, AURKA, and IGF1R. Furthermore, we analyzed the association of DUSP expression with TLR4 signaling and identified VEGF, FGFR and SCF-KIT pathway modules to be regulated by the activation of TLR4 signaling.

The Multiple Roles of the Cdc14 Phosphatase in Cell Cycle Control
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Multiple Roles of the Cdc14 Phosphatase in Cell Cycle Control Javier Manzano-López and Fernando Monje-Casas * Centro Andaluz de Biología Molecular y Medicina Regenerativa (CABIMER), Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)—University of Seville—University Pablo de Olavide, 41092 Sevilla, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 December 2019; Accepted: 20 January 2020; Published: 21 January 2020 Abstract: The Cdc14 phosphatase is a key regulator of mitosis in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Cdc14 was initially described as playing an essential role in the control of cell cycle progression by promoting mitotic exit on the basis of its capacity to counteract the activity of the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdc28/Cdk1. A compiling body of evidence, however, has later demonstrated that this phosphatase plays other multiple roles in the regulation of mitosis at diﬀerent cell cycle stages. Here, we summarize our current knowledge about the pivotal role of Cdc14 in cell cycle control, with a special focus in the most recently uncovered functions of the phosphatase. Keywords: Cdc14; phosphatase; mitotic exit; genome stability; nucleolus; autophagy; cytokinesis 1. Introduction The cell cycle comprises a series of processes that ensure the duplication of the genome and the cellular content, as well as their safe partitioning between the two newly generated daughter cells. Among other mechanisms, the coordination between these events is safeguarded by an accurate balance between kinases and phosphatases that regulate the phosphorylation status of the proteins that control the progression through mitosis. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Cdc14 phosphatase, originally described in the pioneer screening carried out by Hartwell et al.

Phosphorylation Mediated Regulation of Cdc25 Activity, Localization and Stability
Chapter 14 Phosphorylation Mediated Regulation of Cdc25 Activity, Localization and Stability C. Frazer and P.G. Young Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/ 48315 1. Introduction Dual specificity phosphatases of the Cdc25 family are critically important regulators of the cell cycle. They activate cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) at key cell cycle transitions such as the initiation of DNA synthesis and mitosis. They also represent key points of regulation for pathways monitoring DNA integrity, DNA replication, growth factor signaling and extracellular stress. Since their mis-regulation allows cells to function in a genetically unstable state, it is not surprising that these phosphatases are involved in transformation to a cancerous state. Cdc25 phosphatases are heavily regulated by phosphorylation. Many regulatory phosphorylation sites on Cdc25 influence catalytic activity, substrate specificity, subcellular localization and stability. This chapter summarizes the current literature on the phospho-regulation of these proteins. 2.

Cellular Fractionation
Human Cdc14B Promotes Progression through Mitosis by Dephosphorylating Cdc25 and Regulating Cdk1/ Cyclin B Activity Indra Tumurbaatar1, Onur Cizmecioglu2, Ingrid Hoffmann2, Ingrid Grummt1, Renate Voit1* 1 Molecular Biology of the Cell II, German Cancer Research Centre, DKFZ-ZMBH Alliance, Heidelberg, Germany, 2 Mammalian Cell Cycle Control Mechanisms, German Cancer Research Centre, Heidelberg, Germany Abstract Entry into and progression through mitosis depends on phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of key substrates. In yeast, the nucleolar phosphatase Cdc14 is pivotal for exit from mitosis counteracting Cdk1-dependent phosphorylations. Whether hCdc14B, the human homolog of yeast Cdc14, plays a similar function in mitosis is not yet known. Here we show that hCdc14B serves a critical role in regulating progression through mitosis, which is distinct from hCdc14A. Unscheduled overexpression of hCdc14B delays activation of two master regulators of mitosis, Cdc25 and Cdk1, and slows down entry into mitosis. Depletion of hCdc14B by RNAi prevents timely inactivation of Cdk1/cyclin B and dephosphorylation of Cdc25, leading to severe mitotic defects, such as delay of metaphase/anaphase transition, lagging chromosomes, multipolar spindles and binucleation. The results demonstrate that hCdc14B-dependent modulation of Cdc25 phosphatase and Cdk1/ cyclin B activity is tightly linked to correct chromosome segregation and bipolar spindle formation, processes that are required for proper progression through mitosis and maintenance of genomic stability.
