Molecular interplay of the noncoding RNA ANRIL and methylated histone H3 lysine 27 by polycomb CBX7 in transcriptional silencing of INK4a.
Expression of the INK4b/ARF/INK4a tumor suppressor locus in normal and cancerous cell growth is controlled by methylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me) as directed by the Polycomb group… Expand
PHD domain-mediated E3 ligase activity directs intramolecular sumoylation of an adjacent bromodomain required for gene silencing.

The nuclear magnetic resonance structure of the phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain of She complexed to a phosphopeptide reveals an alternative means of recognizing tryosine-phosphorylated proteins.… Expand
Structure and regulation of MAPK phosphatases.
MAP kinases (MAPKs), which control mitogenic signal transduction in all eukaryotic organisms, are inactivated by dual specificity MAPK phosphatases (DS-MKPs). Recent studies reveal that substrate… Expand

ABSTRACT Acetylation of the RelA subunit of NF-κB, especially at lysine-310, is critical for the transcriptional activation of NF-κB and the expression of inflammatory genes. In this study, we… Expand
Disrupting the interaction of BRD4 with diacetylated Twist suppresses tumorigenesis in basal-like breast cancer.
