Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) mediates H3K27me3 deposition, which is thought to recruit canonical PRC1 (cPRC1) via chromodomain-containing CBX proteins to promote stable repression of developmental genes. PRC2 forms two major subcomp...
Structural basis of pre-tRNA intron removal by human tRNA splicing endonuclease [0.03%]
人tRNA剪接内切酶切除预tRNA内含子的结构基础

Xiaofeng Zhang et al.
Removal of the intron from precursor-tRNA (pre-tRNA) is essential in all three kingdoms of life. In humans, this process is mediated by the tRNA splicing endonuclease (TSEN) comprising four subunits: TSEN2, TSEN15, TSEN34, and TSEN54. Here,...
Structural and functional properties of mSWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes revealed through single-cell perturbation screens [0.03%]
通过单细胞干扰筛选揭示mSWI/SNF染色质重塑复合物的结构和功能属性

Jordan E Otto et al.
The mammalian SWI/SNF (mSWI/SNF or BAF) family of chromatin remodeling complexes play critical roles in regulating DNA accessibility and gene expression. The three final-form subcomplexes-cBAF, PBAF, and ncBAF-are distinct in biochemical co...
Stress granules are shock absorbers that prevent excessive innate immune responses to dsRNA [0.03%]
压力颗粒是防止双链RNA诱导的先天免疫反应过度活化的缓冲器

Proper defense against microbial infection depends on the controlled activation of the immune system. This is particularly important for the RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), which recognize viral dsRNA and initiate antiviral innate immune respo...
Ends end it via mitochondria: A telomere-dependent tumor suppressive mechanism acts during replicative crisis [0.03%]
线粒体介导的端粒依赖性抑癌机制在复制型危机时被激活

Histone chaperones participate in the biogenesis, transportation, and deposition of histones. They contribute to processes impacted by nucleosomes including DNA replication, transcription, and epigenetic inheritance. In this issue, Carraro ...
Splice epitranscriptomics and DNA damage repair together: ALKBH5-m6A-SF3B1 regulation in leukemic transformation [0.03%]
